Why Use Aromatherapy Inhalers?

Aromatherapy inhalers are a great way to utilize essential oils for energy. Studies have shown that inhaling essential oils can help on an emotional and physical level.

An essential oil inhaler is super convenient. You can take it on the go or use it at home. You can place it in your purse, at your bedside, in your travel bag, on your commute, at your workstation—anywhere you may need an aromatherapy boost.

The tight cap and lid ensure a long-lasting aroma. The cap keeps the wick inside very securely to preserve the essential oils and ensure a long-lasting scent without the wick drying out.

You can use aromatherapy inhalers over and over. The end cap is purposely snug to preserve the scent. With a little effort, the end cap is removable so more oils can be added to the wick. You can use a butter knife or an essential oil key to pop off the bottom cap to add more essential oils to the wick.

How to Make Aromatherapy Inhalers for Energy

To make it, first place the wick in a small bowl. Add the essential oil blend of choice from the recipes below to the cotton wick in the bowl. Using tweezers, grab the wick and pick up any oils left in the bowl with it. Insert the wick into the inhaler and place on the end cap (base).

To use, place the nasal inhaler near the nostrils, then slowly inhale while waving the inhaler stick back and forth under the nostrils.
