Linking diffusion and Essential oil:
We first need to understand the process of diffusion and then we will understand it in terms of essential oils. So Diffusion is not a new word that we came across. The concept of diffusion has been a basic part of physics, chemistry, biology, and many other fields.
It is simply the movement of a substance from the area of high concentration to the area of low concentration. It takes place in liquids and gases because the mobility of particles occurs quickly. Now we have to link it with essential oils but before that let us have a quick summary of essential oils.
Essential oils are plant extracts and are retrieved from different plant parts like stem, leaves, bud, fruit peel, and seed using methods of distillation or mechanical methods like cold-pressing. The oil is also known as essential as it retains the plant’s fragrance and flavor. The specialty of the oils lies in their volatile nature because of which they quickly spread their fragrance.
The popular use of essential oil comes from the ancient belief. In ancient times, people used it for religious purposes and for embalming because of the fragrance it holds. Essential oils are extensively used in the field of aromatherapy which harness compounds present in oil for therapeutic benefits. Aromatherapy widely makes use of diffusers to spread the fragrance and bring mental clarity.
In our context diffusion is a process where volatile molecules of essential oils combine with surrounding air molecules. Needless to mention essential oils are liquids so diffusion is very likely possible.
Now let us have look at the types of diffusers that help in the process of diffusion.
Essential oil diffusers:
Essential oil diffusers serve the purpose of spreading aroma of essential oil throughout your home or workplace. There are many varieties of essential oil diffusers and these are safe alternative to synthetic air fresheners and scented candles. The use of diffusers brings peace and imparts many other benefits which we will discuss in coming section.
Types of essential oil diffusers are as follows:
- Nebulizing diffuser: Nebulizing diffuser also known as cold air is an efficient method of essential oil diffusion. The diffuser works on the principle of Bernoulli theorem which is part of fluid dynamics. These diffusers work without the need for heat and water. Thus they quickly disperse molecules without chemical alterations. They are best used for internal support such as pain issues or skin irritation.
- Ultrasonic diffuser: This is one common type of aromatherapy diffuser that requires water for dispersion. This way concentration of oil gets balanced in potency and aroma. They work wonderful for dry air and act as humidifiers. These diffusers use sonic waves to create fragile mist containing droplets of water and oil. They are generally used for uplifting mood and enhancing emotional support.
- Electric diffusers: These diffusers use electricity to heat essential oil or power fans to increase the evaporation and dispersion of oil. They range from discrete pocket-sized to batter powered personal diffusers.
- Evaporative diffusers: These types of diffusers use absorbent materials like pads for essential oil distribution. They simply release essential oil into the atmosphere through evaporation. Some diffusers are also powdered by fan which allows oil to evaporate more quickly throughout the area.
There are also some traditional diffuser appliances like oil lamps, candle diffusers, and aroma heaters. It should be kept in mind that diffusers work best in a well-ventilated area and diffuse oils over a short period of time like 15-20minutes. Think like when you give your nose a break, you actually give your body a break to absorb and work. This will reduce olfactive fatigue.
Now when we know the process of diffusion in essential oil and types of diffusers, it is time to move to our next segment which talks about the need of diffusing essential oil. And I will be waiting to hear from you in the comment section why you prefer diffusing essential oils, do comment.
Need for diffusing essential oils:
Before you ask yourself the importance of diffusion, I would like to bring forth the need of diffusing essential oils. It is actually fun and easy activity to carry forward with add on benefits. Diffusion of essential oil helps to create the desired ambiance. The very leading reason for diffusing essential oils is to fill the room or area with the astonishing natural fragrance of essential oils. I am sure you prefer diffusing essential oil for this reason only.
Diffusion takes into consideration the power of scent which is by far the safest means of using essential oils. The sense of smell is one of the most powerful senses, though it varies from individual to individual. You have probably noticed that you step into a place and quickly get connected with the aroma of the place. That’s how essential oils make difference. By dispersing essential oil into the air we breathe, one can control the feeling of our environment and surprisingly our emotions too. Inhalation of essential oil works both emotionally and therapeutically.
After knowing the need of diffusion, let us quickly read the various benefits of diffusing essential oil.

One benefit that outshines others is the aroma of the essential oil. It connects with your body in a beautiful way. But I must say there are numerous other benefits too which are mentioned below:
