Aromatherapy is listed as a treatment for depression...does this really work!?

If nothing else, certain essential oils used in aromatherapy can help relax and calm an anxious mind. There is some research on aromatherapy ( Aromatherapy) but there could be more. The fact that there are only a few studies on the subject is due to limited funding for research and (in my opinion) not due to a lack of effectiveness of these treatments. Hopefully aromatherapy will have more rigorous and extensive scientific study to back it soon!
