Aromatherapy: does it work?
Results from Itai et al.'s (2000) study support a group utilization project to educate nurses regarding aromatherapy, so that nurses can implement it in their practice to reduce their patient's anxiety levels. A major feasibility issue would be the price tag; one must consider both the cost of paying for the training that the nurses would need and the materials needed to implement the practice or aromatherapy. Future research would be very valuable, especially if it replicated this study using a larger, more diverse sample of patients.
