Distillation of Essential Oils and It's History
Distillation is attributed to the Persians in the 10th century and history shows its paractice may have been in use for a long time prior to this. Information about essential oil distillation was published in the 16th century in Germany however French physicians in the 19th century recognized the potential of essential oils in treating disease. Medical doctors became more established in the 19th century and focused on using chemical drugs but French and German doctors still recognized the role of natural botanicals in treating illness.
