DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

(5) In FIG. 1, a perspective view of the subject aromatherapy ring is shown having general reference numeral 10. The ring 10 includes a split ring body 12 with an open trough 14 therearound. The ring body 12 is made of a flexible, silicon or like material for ease in handling and cleaning. The body 12 is shown with a first end 16 and a second end 18. The ends 16 and 18 include magnets 20, embedded in the ends to prevent moisture from rusting the magnets. The magnets 20 are used for securing the ends together and closing the ring body, as shown by arrows 21. While the magnets are shown, it can be appreciated that various types of fasteners, not subject to be corroded by moisture could be used equally well with the ring 10.

(6) In this drawing, a container 22 is shown holding an aroma liquid 24 and pouring the liquid into the open trough 14.

(7) In FIG. 2, a perspective view of a shower filter 26 is shown attached to a shower head 28. In this drawing, the ring body 12 is shown received around a portion of a shower filter 26 and held thereon using the magnets 20 for securing the ends 16 and 18 together. It should be noted, the ring 10 is held in a horizontal position on the shower filter 26 so that the aroma liquid 24 does not spill out the open trough 14.

(8) When warm water 30 or hot water passes through the shower filter 26 and out the shower head 28, the water heats the aroma liquid 24 in the trough 14. At this time, a fragrance 32 moves upwardly form the open trough for providing an aromatherapy shower.

(9) In FIG. 3, another perspective view of the ring 10 is shown. In this drawing, the split ring body 12 is received around a portion of a shower head 28. Also shown in this drawing is the fragrance 32 moving upwardly from the heated aroma liquid 24 in the open trough 14.

(10) While the invention has been particularly shown, described and illustrated in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments and modifications thereof, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that equivalent changes in form and detail may be made therein without departing from the true spirit and scope of the invention as claimed except as precluded by the prior art.
