Smell training SET 3 is a follow-up of SET 1 and SET 2 .
StimuScent olfactory training can help when you can no longer smell properly. For example, after a head injury, damage to your olfactory organ, or after the coronavirus.
In most cases, loss of smell is temporary and will eventually resolve on its own. However, it can also be permanent. Smell training can help restore your sense of smell.
You can do the odor training developed by DOS Medical at home.
Smell training is a way to train your brain to perceive smells (correctly) again.
The training itself is simple: twice a day, you smell different bottles containing different scents for 20 seconds each. This trains your brain to associate the scents with the appropriate plant, herb, or food.
The complete StimuScent scent training consists of 3 scent sets, each with 4 jars of essential oils with their own scents:
Each set contains a fragrance combination of floral, citrus, fresh, and herbal notes. The scents and fragrance combinations were not chosen at random. They are all 12 internationally recognized fragrances, distinctive enough to effectively train your sense of smell.
Smell training works best when repeated daily. The Smellow app helps you with this. With reminders, a clear structure, and fixed training times, practicing becomes easier and more organized. During the training, the app guides you step by step and allows you to record your experiences. This way, you can easily build a consistent routine without having to keep track of the time yourself.
The app is available as a free download from both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store .
