Understanding How does an Aroma Diffuser Work Best

 

Have you recently learned about how does an aroma diffuser work? At the most basic level, aroma diffusers work by dispersing essential oils into the air to be inhaled and easily absorbed by the body. As many individuals know about the benefits of aroma diffuser. Many of them use it as a solution to their worries, boosting their energy with a mist fragrance.

 

Our aromatherapy diffusers vibrate ultrasonically to lift the oil and water into micro-particles which are dispersed into the air as a cool mist.

When these particles are breathed in, they can aid restful sleep, relieve colds and flu and promote healthy skin.

The beauty of ultrasonic diffusers is they do not heat the essential oil.

Heating any oil above 35oC can not only kill its healing benefits, but can cause the oil to release toxic vapors into your home – even essential oils.

Unlike steam, the cool mist from our diffusers does not cause condensation or mound.

 

FIVE USES IN ONE DIFFUSER

IONISER
The micro-particles are dispersed as negatively-charged ions which attach to, and cancel out, harmful positive ions from electronic devices, printers, air conditioners etc. Positive ions can cause tiredness, tension, headaches, anxiety and irritability.

HUMIDIFIER
The diffuser acts as a humidifier to effectively treat dry skin, nose, throat and lips. It can also be used to ward off he common cold or flu.

AIR PURIFIER
dōTERRA essential oils are antimicrobial, antibacterial and antifungal. Diffusing them into the air can kill germs and odours to freshen and neutralise your home.

AROMATHERAPY DIFFUSER
You can strengthen your immune system, ease anxiety, promote concentration or achieve many other healthy results, simply according to which oil you choose to diffuse.

NIGHT LIGHT
The soft night light gently rotates through the colours of the rainbow or you can choose to pause on the colour of your choice. Switch off while sleeping if preferred.

Understanding How Essential Oil Diffusers Work & 4 Diffuser Types

At the most basic level, essential oil diffusers work by dispersing essential oils into the air to be inhaled and easily absorbed by the body.

As an added benefit, most essential oils also emit a pleasant scent into the air when distributed via diffuser, also purifying the air – killing bacteria and fungus.

There are 4 basic types of oil diffusers.

Each of these diffusers uses a different process to disperse the essential oils into the air and come with their own unique benefits, and in some cases, limitations.

WHAT IS AN ULTRASONIC DIFFUSER FOR ESSENTIAL OILS?
Ultrasonic diffusers dispense healing essential oils into the air as negative ions. These diffusers get their name from the ultrasonic vibrations used to break down the essential oils into microparticles, allowing the oil to be dispersed as a very fine mist, mixed with steam, into the air.

The process does not create a lot of noise, allowing the diffuser to run extremely quietly – ideal for relaxing, sleeping and working.

DOES AN ULTRASONIC DIFFUSER USE HEAT?
The ultrasonic diffuser process is adiabatic, meaning that the oil changes states without the use of heat. Because no heat is used in process, the integrity of the oil is fully preserved upon dispersal.

CAN AN ULTRASONIC DIFFUSER DOUBLE AS A HUMIDIFIER?
Yes, an ultrasonic diffuser uses water as part of the dispersal processes, adding the benefit of humidifying the room. Added water is sometimes criticized as it dilutes the potency of the oils, but for those who do not prefer overwhelming smells and for their oils to last longer, mixing them with water for dispersal can be seen as a good thing.

WHAT IS A HEAT DIFFUSER FOR ESSENTIAL OILS?
A heat diffuser heats the essential oils until they evaporate into the air. Thicker oils, like Sandalwood, can be well-dispersed into a room when using a heat diffuser. Heat diffusers come in many types, including electric heat diffusers, candle heat diffusers and lamp ring.

All models of heat diffusers use a tray where the oil is held next to the heat source so that it will heat and evaporate.

WHAT ARE THE DISADVANTAGES OF HEAT DIFFUSERS?
While heat diffusers are an economical option that do a good job of their basic function – dispersing the essential oil – the use of heat changes the essential oils at the chemical level – changing and in many cases, limiting, the health benefits of the oils.

WHAT IS A EVAPORATIVE DIFFUSER AND HOW DOES IT DIFFER FROM A HEAT DIFFUSER?
While heat diffusers also distribute the oils via evaporation, evaporative diffusers use a fan to generate a wind vs. heat, to cause the oil to evaporate into the air.

The oil in an evaporative diffuser is held in an absorbent material – usually a pad or a wick – so that the wind causes the oil to evaporate in a controlled fashion.

WHAT IS A NEBULIZER FOR ESSENTIAL OILS?
A nebulizer is sometimes said to release the purest form of the essential oils, for the best in aromatherapy. This is because of the concentration that a nebulizer produces by breaking down the oils into atoms by force, much like a perfume bottle.

HOW ARE NEBULIZERS USED FOR AROMATHERAPY?
Unlike other diffusers, Nebulizers require no heat and no water. They deliver a concentrated and pure stream of essential oil dispersion, though you will likely need to place it on a timer in order to prevent the oil from quickly running out. This concentration and purity makes nebulizers a great option for aromatherapy.

WHY SHOULD I USE A DIFFUSER?
Aside from being a great smelling alternative to candles or wax melts, essential oil diffusers can help you to relax with calming lavender, lift your spirits with a fun vanilla scent, remove airborne pathogens with tea tree or thyme, open your airways with cooling eucalyptus and more.

The health benefits of using a diffuser that contains water also include doubling as a humidifier to help your dried out airways.
