Aromatherapy diffuser 

Aromatherapy is an alternative medicine more and more used today to treat everyday ailments with essential oils . These can be distributed by three different channels: internal, external, but also air. The airway, also called eolfactotherapy, is the fastest and most effective way to benefit from the benefits of aromatherapy, in particular by the diffusion of essential oils.

How to choose your essential oil diffuser in aromatherapy

Diffusers of essential oils fall into different categories, diffusers by gentle heat, by ventilation, by ultrasound, by micro-diffusion, or by misting. To help you choose the diffuser that best suits your needs and your budget, do not hesitate to consult our health advice article on our blog: " How to choose your essential oil diffuser "

There are different types of essential oil diffusers which each have specific characteristics.

Ventilated essential oil diffusers

The principle is very simple: a fan "propels" the air through a pad that you have previously soaked in essential oils. This forced air flow instantly spreads essential oils throughout the room. Since it is very quiet, you can use it in a room or an office, its power does not cover a whole house.

Ultrasonic essential oil diffusers

Ultrasound is a sound with a frequency above 20 kHz and cannot be heard by the human ear (too high-pitched). A membrane vibrates in the frequency range between 20 kHz and 80 kHz.

Ultrasonic diffusion is a cold diffusion method that does not alter the original scent of essential oils but also preserves their energy values. The ultrasound produced by the diffuser transforms the mixture of water and oils into a light mist which propagates in the air.

Humidifying essential oil diffuser

These diffusers are also called hybrid devices because they allow both the diffusion of essential oils but also of water vapor (which will humidify your atmosphere a little too dry).

The essential oil humidifier diffusers use a system that creates a light mist from the water in its reservoir. Essential oils are added to the water in small proportions. The mist that contains the scents of essential oils is then diffused into the air. The fogger also makes the ambient air less dry while ensuring the diffusion of essential oils.

Diffuser of essential oils by nebulization (dry diffuser)

Diffusion by nebulization allows, thanks to vibrations, to separate and diffuse the molecules of essential oils in the form of very fine particles emitted into the ambient air. This method of diffusion is done cold and thus allows to preserve all the therapeutic virtues of essential oils.

Most of the time the dry essential oil diffuser consists of a base where the motor is located and a glass part to accommodate the essential oils. Nebulizers are very effective and allow the oils to be diffused in spaces up to 120m². They are equipped with a power variator.

Diffusers of essential oils fall into different categories, diffusers by gentle heat, by ventilation, by ultrasound, by micro-diffusion, or by misting. The important thing when deciding to order an essential oil diffuser online is to check the quality of the materials according to the modes of distribution available in pharmacies. Indeed, it is strongly recommended by essential oil professionals (aromatherapists and aromatologists) to use pharmaceutical quality products at the risk of projecting unwanted substances into the air. These aerosols may indeed not be suitable for certain sensitive people.

The diffusion of essential oils and its benefits

The atmospheric diffusion of essential oils presents two major interests:

• the olfactory path allows a direct action on our brain via the nerve cells of the nasal mucous membranes. Thus the active molecules act immediately on our nervous system before diffusing through the respiratory and pulmonary sphere, then into the blood system.
• the diffusion of essential oils cleans the ambient air by destroying harmful microbes or bacteria. It therefore plays a preventive role

There are many ways to diffuse essential oils , but not all are created equal: heat in particular alters the active ingredients and can even be dangerous by modifying their molecular structure. Also, forget about burners or other diffusers that use heat.
