Aromatherapy Market - In Depth Analysis Report By Product and by Applications

The global aromatherapy market size was valued at USD 1.3 billion in 2018 and is projected to witness 10.4% CAGR over the forecast period.

The global Aromatherapy Market size is anticipated to reach USD 2.8 billion by 2026, expanding at a CAGR of 10.4% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This growth can be attributed to the increased awareness about the therapeutic benefits of essential oils.

Aromatherapy is expected to play a significant role in the field of alternative medicines with a gradual shift from man-made drugs to essential oils to gain therapeutic values. On the basis of a 2016 article by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), a clinical trial was conducted on 50 patients suffering from second- and third-degree burns, to study the effects of inhaling these products. The result showed that the products were significantly effective in reducing pain arising from such wounds. Hence, aromatherapy can be used as a complementary therapy for pain relief amongst burn patients, thereby, supporting the market growth. Some of the other therapeutic applications include issues related to skin, digestion, respiratory disorders, insomnia, and immune system functioning.

Essential oils also possess many factors that make them naturally healing solutions. Therapeutic grade essential oils positively impact the overall wellness of the patient. These products have the potential to be natural cleansers and an antibacterial remedy when ingested. People are also becoming aware of the benefits offered by natural therapies as they support the body’s innate healing abilities. With experience and education, they are realizing that bacteria and viruses do not develop resistance to natural substances, the way they do in case of synthetic drugs.
