Abstract

The study of the effect of course (10 procedures) inhalations (1 mg/m3 of air, procedure duration 20 minutes) of the essential oil (EO) of lavender cultivar "Sineva" (selection of the Federal State Funded Institution of Science "NBG-NSC") was carried out in persons staying in a sanatorium-resort institution. It has been established that the effect of exposure depends on the initial (upon admission to the institution) psychoemotional state of patients and its dynamics in the process of recreation. With initially low and medium estimates of psycho-emotional state indicators and its positive dynamics during treatment, lavender EO slows down the dynamics and stabilizes the state at a slightly lower level than in the control. With an initially high level of assessments and the absence of their dynamics in the control, inhalation of lavender angustifolia EO vapors does not affect the psycho-emotional state.
