Quand utiliser mon huile essentielle pour diffuseur ?
There are several types of broadcasting and therefore a multitude of different broadcasters. Each technology is different and has its advantages and disadvantages. One method is no better than another and it is up to the user to decide which broadcaster to buy according to his personal preferences and how he will use it.
La méthode par brumisation
Ultra-sound diffusers, or misters, allow cold diffusion of essential oils. Cold diffusion is the most effective because it keeps intact all the aromatic molecules that are soaked into the essential oil. huile essentielle.
Le fonctionnement est le suivant : une pastille située au fond du diffuseur émet une petite vibration à haute fréquence et au-dessus de cette pastille se trouve un petit espace rempli d’eau et d’huiles essentielles. Au contact de la vibration, une brume composée de molécules aromatiques va se former et être libérée dans la pièce.
La méthode par nébulisation
In contrast to the misting method, in which the aromatic molecules are only transported in the air, nebulisation will cause the molecules to burst into the atmosphere. The smoke is therefore much more powerful because the aromatic molecules are not mixed with water. Being lighter, they are deposited directly in the lungs.
La méthode par ventilation
Comme son nom l’indique, cette méthode utilise la ventilation pour souffler de l’air dans la pièce. L’huile essentielle est déposée sur un coton d’ouate dans le diffuseur et celui-ci va souffler un jet d’air à travers le coton imbibé d’huile essentielle pour faire évaporer les molécules aromatiques. Cette méthode existe également sans coton mais avec le flacon inséré directement dans le diffuseur.
La méthode par chaleur douce
Diffusers using the latter method are less efficient but have the advantage of being smaller, more easily transportable and generally quieter than the others. For this method, it is very important to use high quality essential oils to prevent the heat from destroying the aromatic molecules.
These diffusers are useful for small spaces such as cars or small rooms.
