Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The investigators conducted a study in 2019 on the effects of aromatherapy using daisy chromosome aromatic essential oil on the emotions stress changes and cognitive function of elderly people in need of care and found that application of daisy chromosome aromatic oil diluted to 1% to the shoulder area tended to reduce stress and maintain cognitive function in elderly people in need of care. It was also found that recreational activities during the aromatherapy intervention period increased the time of relaxation in terms of emotions compared to the control period (kikukawa et.al, 2021).Therefore, in this study, we will focus on chromophyllum, which contains more active ingredients, about 30percent linalool and 4percent limonene, than daisy, which showed certain effects, and investigate the effects of chromophyllum aromatherapy on the emotions, stress changes, and cognitive functions of the elderly requiring care.
