Kmart’s Range of Essential Oil Diffusers Will Turn Your Bedroom into a Relaxing Haven

Oil Diffuser

The interest in essentials oils has exploded in recent years and many in the wellness world swear by the healing qualities of these oils when it comes to the treatment of stress, anxiety, headaches and insomnia. The increased popularity of this industry has also led to the creation of a relatively new piece of technology: the essential oil diffuser.

Unlike oil burners that use tealight candles to emanate scent through heat, diffusers use water to disperse the scent of the essential oils. You simply pop a few drops of your chosen oil into the water container and the device diffuses the aroma around the room.

There has been much research as to the effectiveness of essential oils and while some results have looked promising, more research is needed in this area, says Healthline. Many experts view the use of these oils as low-risk so if they work for you, go with it.

“Essential oils don’t work for everyone, but there’s no harm in trying them as long as you use them in a safe way,” says Harpreet Gujral, program director of integrative medicine at Sibley Memorial Hospital, told John Hopkins Medicine. “Even if they just boost your mood, it can make a positive impact on your health and well-being.”

Even if using essential oils triggers the placebo effect in some people, this is still a good thing, psychologist Mark Moss from Northumbria University in the United Kingdom, told The Sydney Morning Herald.

“Surely engaging in behaviour that is not harmful in any way, and in fact makes you feel better, is beneficial,” he said.

So, if you’re on the hunt for an oil diffuser, Kmart is the place to go. A quick squiz of the Kmart website shows that the retailer is currently selling 10 different aroma diffusers. Yes, 10.

In true Kmart fashion, the diffusers are aesthetically pleasing and affordable, with all of the diffusers falling into a price range of $15 to $55. Here are our picks of the bunch…
