Nature has blessed us with many beautiful things and one of them is flowers. Flowers have been used not only to enhance the beauty of a woman but also to cure ailments. Roses, tulips, marigold etc have been used to treat skin problems since ancient times.
Flower Therapy is literally becoming a craze among the young turfs now-a-days to heal themselves. It helps in curing diseases like leucoderma, depression, heart ailments, emotional outburst, stamina, anxiety, stress, family problems, relationship problems etc. Different flowers have different property and are used for different salutary purposes which help in treating the patients.
According to Flower Therapist, MA Chishti, flowers that have good properties and help in treating ailments are very popular.

Doctors are also realising that flower therapy is as good as physical therapy for people. The therapy is popular among the people not because flower gives essence, smell or energy but it also helps in fulfilling the vitamins in the body.
Dr Anil Ganjoo, Dermatologist of Skin and Cosmetology Centre informed, "Those who spend ten hours a day in the sun are prone to get skin cancer as exposing the body for long hours in the sun is not good. However, those who are not exposed to sunlight at all, lack vitamin D. For elderly or even young, vitamin D is most essential in the body so that the calcium can be absorbed into the bones. Flower therapy here plays a vital role in gaining vitamin D."
The therapy is very important for almost all types of patients because just walking around flowers boosts the memory, enhance sense of smell, thoughts.
