Sometimes also called ultrasonic diffusers, a diffuser is a device that breaks down water molecules and 100% pure essential oils into a fine, cool mist. That mist is dispersed throughout the room, creating a pleasant aroma in the air, while each essential oil added to it can benefit our health through aromatherapy. Each Saje diffuser also creates negative ions, which are believed to neutralize pollutant aggressors and enhance well-being.
Home diffusers used to scent a space and provide aromatherapeutic benefits are inspired by the technology of a medical device called a nebulizer, used to administer medications quickly and directly into the lungs. Learn more about diffusers here. here.
How do diffusers work?
Diffuser instructions are easy to follow, but very important in keeping your unit functioning optimally. Fill the unit using cool, clean tap water. A best practice is to pour water from a vessel into the unit, rather than filling the unit under the running tap water, to avoid water entering sensitive parts of the diffuser like the air vents, which can cause your unit to malfunction.
Be careful not to fill the unit past the “max fill” line, which is clearly visible on the inner tank of any Saje essential oil diffusers. Filling past this line can result in the cool mist becoming trapped in the unit and causing leakage or overflow. Learn more about how diffusers work here.
What benefits do diffusers provide?
Diffusers produce negative ions—tasteless, odorless, and colorless molecules that pack a punch when it comes to wellness. Think of the way you feel taking a deep breath in the forest, near a waterfall, or at the beach. That boost of happiness, release from stress, and natural surge in energy levels are some of the “side effects” of breathing fresh, clear air. A diffuser is designed to mimic that.
Essential oil diffusers allow you to add aromatherapy according to your personal goals and scent preferences. If you want to feel bliss and harmony, enjoy the smells of spring and summertime, or always bring fresh flowers home, you might prefer our popular Goddess Blend. If you want to lift your mood and feel energized or crave fresh and juicy scents, you might benefit from our best-selling citrusy blend, Liquid Sunshine. If you want to be transported to the outdoors or feel your best while on a crisp walk in the forest, you might love our woodsy and fresh blend, Rain Forest.
Diffusers and diffuser blends allow you to personalize how you want your home to feel—a space of energy, rest, tranquility, and so on. If you want to feel alert while you work from home, consider an energizing blend like Elevate for cheerfulness, happiness, and optimism in your space. Or get Unwind for a peaceful and balancing blend to bring harmony and a state of groundedness to both the body and mind.
What are the best diffusers?
The best diffusers are the ones you like the most. The functionality of our essential oil diffusers is essentially the same; an ultrasonic vibrating disc breaks up water and pure essential oils to create fine, cool mist. The biggest differences when it comes to selecting diffusers are largely aesthetic: colour, size, and material preference. Choosing diffusers that you’re excited about aesthetically—and where you place them in your space—will encourage you to use them each day. Learn more about how to select the best diffusers here.
