Resumo: Studies prove that using aromatherapy with lavender oil generates reduction of anxiety, sedative, antidepressant, soothing, antispasmodic, analgesic and healing effects. A fact that occurs due to the inhibitory action of lavender on the hypothalamic-hypophysis-adrenal axis, which results in the reduction in the release of cortisol, the stress hormone. Promoting, on the other hand, the release of serotonin, generating a feeling of pleasure and well-being. Thus, the present study aimed, through an integrative literature review, to describe the effects of the use of lavender oil in the treatment of anxiety. The psychological effects of inhaling lavender oil occur through conscious perception, belief and expectation. Meanwhile, the pharmacological effects occur through the modulation of the cyclic activity of adenosine monophosphate (reduction of cyclic adenosine monophosphate results with sedation) and inhibition of glutamate binding (sedative effects). Thus, the use of oil is considered safe, except for rare allergic reactions, and can be beneficial in patients with anxiety and reduce the use of antipsychotic drugs.

Esto se debe a la acción inhibitoria de la lavanda sobre el eje hipotálamo-pituitario-suprarrenal, lo que resulta en una reducción en la liberación de la hormona del estrés cortisol. Favoreciendo, por otro lado, la liberación de serotonina, generando una sensación de placer y bienestar. Así, el presente estudio tuvo como objetivo, a través de una revisión integrativa de la literatura, describir los efectos del uso del aceite de lavanda en el tratamiento de la ansiedad. Los efectos psicológicos de la inhalación de aceite de lavanda ocurren a través de la conciencia, la creencia y la expectativa. Mientras tanto, los efectos farmacológicos ocurren a través de la modulación de la actividad del monofosfato de adenosina cíclico (la reducción de los resultados del monofosfato de adenosina cíclico con la sedación) y la inhibición de la unión del glutamato (efectos sedantes). Por lo tanto, el uso del aceite se considera seguro, salvo raras reacciones alérgicas, y puede ser beneficioso en pacientes con ansiedad y reducir el uso de medicamentos antipsicóticos.Estudos comprovam que utilizar aromaterapia com óleo de lavanda gera redução de ansiedade, efeitos sedativos, antidepressivos, calmantes, antiespasmódicos, analgésicos e cicatrizantes. Fato que ocorre devido a ação inibitória da lavanda no eixo hipotálamo-hipófise-adrenal, que resulta na redução da liberação do cortisol, hormônio do estresse. Promovendo, por outro lado, a liberação de serotonina, gerando sentimento de prazer e bem estar. Assim, o presente estudo objetivou, por meio de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, descrever os efeitos do uso do óleo de lavanda no tratamento da ansiedade. Os efeitos psicológicos da inalação do óleo de lavanda ocorrem por meio da percepção consciente, crença e expectativa. Enquanto, os efeitos farmacológicos ocorrem através da modulação da atividade cíclica do monofosfato de adenosina (redução dos resultados de monofosfato de adenosina cíclico com sedação) e inibição da ligação do glutamato (efeitos sedativos). Assim, a utilização do óleo é considerada seguro, exceto para reações alérgicas raras, podendo ser benéfico em pacientes com ansiedade e reduzir o uso de medicamentos antipsicóticos.Research, Society and Development2022-12-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3756010.33448/rsd-v11i16.37560Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 16; e185111637560Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 16; e185111637560Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 16; e1851116375602525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/37560/31545Copyright (c) 2022 Ewelyn Silva; Thamyres Fernanda Moura Pedrosa Souzahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, EwelynSouza, Thamyres Fernanda Moura Pedrosa 2022-12-18T18:26:42Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/37560Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:51:41.292899Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
