Aromatherapy is the therapeutic use of essential oils containing essential nutrients and astringents extracted from herbs.
Aromatherapy involves use of oil and massaging the skin. In case of hair loss, oil is applied on the scalp and massage is done. Aromatherapy is not a new method of treating hair loss and skin disorders, it has been used for centuries for treating problems such as hair loss.
How aromatherapy contributes in hair regain?
Hair loss depends on various factors such as hormonal fluctuation, low blood circulation towards hair follicles, bad immune response and genetic inheritance.
Female hair loss is directly associated to hormonal fluctuation during menstrual cycles and pregnancy. During pregnancy, there is drastic change in hormonal production within a woman’s body and as a result, hair follicles are affected. Hair follicles are wrapped up with tiny blood capillaries. Blood flowing through these capillaries transfers oxygen, minerals and vitamin.
Due to lack or overproduction of hormones, follicles and capillaries become stiff. Aromatherapy reduces stiffness using essential oils and massage of scalp. Massage stimulates hair follicles and capillaries ensuring rich supply of oxygen.
Bad immune response is another cause of female pattern hair loss. The term bad immune response refers to destructive response of immune system against body’s own hormones and cells.
In this case, cells of hair follicles and hormones are badly responded by body’s own immune system and results in the damage of hair follicles. It is the worst cause of hair loss. In case of bad immune response, essential oils strengthen the immune system to recognize body’s own hormones and cells. Massaging unclogs the lymphoid, a component of immune system.
Aromatherapy stimulates the thermal receptors that destroy bacterial and fungal colonies. Fungal infection is foremost cause of hair loss in females. Fungi feed on nutrients that blood supply to follicles for their growth.
What oil should you use for aromatherapy?
Herbal hair loss supplements are the best aromatic oils. They aim at providing all essential nutrients and minerals to hair follicles for maintaining or regaining the hair. Herbal hair loss supplements are safe to use and do not cause any fatal or severe side effect.
Conclusion:
Aromatherapy is the safest and most effective hair loss treatment for female and male pattern baldness or hair loss. The procedure involves use of essential oils containing essential nutrients and massage of scalp. The procedure is mostly done before going to bed.
