As a
continuation of our studies on the biological (mainly sedative)
properties of essential oils
and fragrance compounds, new results in
aromatherapy research will be
presented. After a short introduction
dealing with therapeutic
properties of essential oils and fragrances in
general, emphasis will be on
the correct definition of the term
"aromatherapy". Examples of
how distinct biological actions evoked only by
means of inhalation of
essential oils and fragrance compounds will be
presented.

Effects of
aromatherapy (odorless condition, lavender, and hiba oil) on
mood and anxiety were
investigated in 14 female patients who were being
treated with chronic
hemodialysis. A control period consisting of natural
hospital smells was
established before each test session, and then
aromatic test conditions were
systematically evaluated for odorless
conditions as well as aromatic
conditions containing lavender and hiba oil
aromas. The effects of
aromatherapy were measured using the Hamilton
rating scale for depression (HAMD)
and the Hamilton rating scale for
anxiety (HAMA). Hiba oil aroma
significantly decreased the mean scores of
HAMD and HAMA, and lavender
aroma significantly decreased the mean scores
of HAMA. The mean scores of
HAMD and HAMA in an odorless condition were
not significantly different
from those of the control conditions. These
results indicate that in
chronic hemodialysis patients hiba oil is an
effective, non-invasive means
for the treatment of depression and anxiety,
and that lavender alleviates
anxiety.

The purpose
of this study was to investigate EEG changes in subjects
directly after inhalation of
essential oils, and subsequently, to observe
any effect on subjective
evaluations. EEG and sensory evaluation were
assessed in 13 healthy female
subjects in four odor conditions. Four odor
conditions (including
lavender, chamomile, sandalwood and eugenol) were
applied respectively for each
subject in the experiment. The results were
as follows. 1) Four basic
factors were extracted from 22 adjective pairs
by factor analysis of the
sensory evaluation. The first factor was
"comfortable feeling", the
second "cheerful feeling", the third "natural
feeling" and the fourth
"feminine feeling". In the score of the first
factor (comfortable feeling),
the odors in order of high contribution are
lavender, eugenol, chamomile
and sandalwood. 2) Alpha 1 (8-10 Hz) of EEG
at parietal and posterior
temporal regions significantly decreased soon
after the onset of inhalation
of lavender oil (p<0.01). Significant
changes of alpha 1 were also
observed after inhalation of eugenol or
chamomile. The change after
inhalation of sandalwood was not significant.
These results showed that
alpha 1 activity significantly decreased under
odor conditions in which
subjects felt comfortable, and showed no
significant change under odor
conditions in which subjects felt
uncomfortable. These results
suggest a possible correlation between alpha
1 activity and subjective
evaluation.

n the
present experiment the effect of the lavender odorant to human
beings was investigated.
Japanese version of Cox and Mackay's stress /
arousal adjective checklist
(J-SACL), blood pressure, heart rate, stroop
test, non-spatial working
memory task and the computed electroencephalogr-
aphy (cEEG) was performed
before and after the lavender odorants
stimulation. The results
indicated that lavender odorants have an
anti-stress effect and reduce
the arousal state in J-SACL, although
lavender odorants did not
influence blood pressure, heart rate, stroop
test and non-spatial working
memory task. Furthermore, the power spectrum
of theta 1 (F4) was increased
and beta 1 waves in T3, O1, P4 and F4 were
decreased in the lavender
stimulated group. These results suggest that the
lavender odorants reduce an
electrophysiological arousal state.

The
effects of two fragrance oils on the human central nervous system
(CNS) were studied using
neurophysiological measurements. Twenty healthy
volunteers inhaled
either lavender or jasmine following a fragrance-free
session. Lavender
increased auditory reaction time and slowed critical
flicker fusion frequency
irrespective of the subjects' preference.
Prolongation of
coefficient of variation of R-R intervals were noted only
in those who liked the
fragrance, regardless of the inhaled fragrance.
The fragrance specific
characteristic changes were noted on quantitative
EEG; a decrease of fast
activity during lavender inhalation, and a
decrease of slow
activity during jasmine. At the same time, the subjects'
liking influenced the
EEG changes. The effects of fragrance oils must be
considered from two
significant factors: psychological and physiological.

In our
previous experiments on animals evidence was found that citrus
fragrance can restore
the stress-induced immunosuppression, suggesting
that citrus fragrance
may have an effect on restoring the homeostatic
balance. Since a
dysregulation of the neuroendocrine and immune function
is thought to be
associated with psychosomatic or psychiatric disorders
an attempt was made to
restore their mental health by stimulation of one
of the sensory systems.
Fragrance (citrus was our choice) which comforts
through stimulation of
the olfactory system was applied to depressive
patients. It was given
to 12 depressive subjects and the results
indicated that the doses
of antidepressants necessary for the treatment
of depression could be
markedly reduced. The treatment with citrus
fragrance normalized
neuroendocrine hormone levels and immune function
and was rather more
effective than antidepressants.

This
review of the psychodynamic effects of fragrances and aromas covers
the following aspects:
mechanisms of action (quasi-pharmacological,
semantic, hedonic
valence and placebo), effects related to substance
(specificity and
intensity), effects related to people, effects related
to stimulus context,
effects related to external context, conscious
control and experimental
evidence. In the conclusions it is pointed out
that there is a need for
broader studies, mechanisms seldom act alone,
and mechanisms can be
used in parallel for the strongest effect on moods.
Odours are unlikely to
manipulate us in hostile settings against our
will, but in the right
environment, and aided by our own readiness or
desire to be affected,
they can influence mood, emotional state and
mental disposition.

The
effects of fragrances on insomniac tendencies of healthy subjects
were studied. The
fragrances applied in this study were a new fragrance
(fragrance A) composed
of sandalwood, rose, juniper berry and others, and
a lavender essential oil
(fragrance B). Two hundred men and
women were
recruited, and, from
these, 40 subjects with mild psychophysiological
insomnia were selected.
The subjects slept without using any fragrance
for an initial 2 weeks,
and for the following 4 weeks they slept with
fragrance A or B as a
volatile gel at the bedside. Fragrance A shortened
sleep onset latency, and
had a tendency to prolong total sleep time more
than fragrance B,
although both fragrances decreased the number of
awakenings. The results
suggest that the application of an appropriate
fragrance is useful for
improvement of insomniac tendencies.
