Welcome to J&K AROMA FESTIVAL
Aroma of plants have found widespread use in industry as well as in medication. Ayurveda, the traditional medical system used in India for many centuries, uses dried and fresh herbs as well as aromatic massage as important elements of treatment.
Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is a form of alternative medicine that uses volatile plant materials, known as essential oils, and other aromatic compounds for the purpose of altering a person's mind, mood, cognitive function or health.
Some essential oils such as tea tree have demonstrated anti-microbial effects, but there is still a lack of clinical evidence demonstrating efficacy against bacterial, fungal, or viral infections. Evidence for the efficacy of aromatherapy in treating medical conditions remains poor, with a particular lack of studies employing rigorous methodology, but some evidence exists that essential oils may have therapeutic potential.
