Research on Essential oils High Blood pressure

A study was conducted by Jolanta Basnyet, aromatherapist at the Natural Health Centre in Preston, Lancashire, UK.
Twenty patients were divided into two groups; the first group to receive five 45 minute aromatherapy treatments using 15ml of unrefined grapeseed carrier oil containing one drop of each of Ylang-ylang (Cananga odorata) , Clary sage (Salvia sclarea) and Marjoram (Origanum marjorana) over a period of six weeks. The second group received the same massage but without the essential oils.
The massage techniques used were effleurage (stroking), petrissage (kneading), gentle friction, vibration and feathering using 15ml of unrefined grapeseed carrier oil which in the aromatherapy group contained one drop of each of the essential oils.
At the end of the treatment period, the results revealed that 7/10 in the treatment group and 6/10 in the control experienced a reduction in their raised blood pressure. The improvement in pulse rate of patients in the treatment group was consistently higher than improvement observed in the control group.

The report concludes that 'overall blood pressure readings in both groups improved successfully, which would indicate that this type of tactile treatment can have a beneficial effect on the raised arterial blood pressure
