Effects of the aroma of lemone verbena (Aloysia citriodora Paláu) essential oil on anxiety and the hemodynamic profile before cesarean section: A randomized clinical trial.

Researchers studied the effect of lemon verbena aromatherapy on 80 patients with anxiety. The patients were divided into two groups, with one group receiving a placebo scent and the other group receiving the lemon verbena scent. Results showed a significant reduction in anxiety symptoms in the group exposed to the lemon verbena scent. These findings support the use of aromatherapy as a complementary treatment for anxiety.
