ABSTRACT. This study was conducted to determine the level of awareness and degree of intention to use aromatherapy as a complementary pain management of the 50 nurses at Novaliches District Hospital. Results showed that the nurse-respondents generally belonged to the 20 to 29 years old group, assigned in the special areas and have been in the hospital for 1-3 years; there is a high level of awareness in terms of essential oils used, and different health conditions that can likely benefit from aromatherapy; and very high level of awareness in terms of safety use of essential oils, different ways of performing aromatherapy, and barriers in using aromatherapy as complementary pain management; there is significant difference between the levels of awareness on aromatherapy when grouped according to area of assignment; and no significant difference between the levels of awareness on aromatherapy when grouped according to age and length of experience as a nurse in the hospital; there is a significant difference between the degrees of intention to use aromatherapy when grouped according to area of assignment; and no significant difference between the degrees of intention to use aromatherapy when grouped according to age and length of experience as a nurse in the hospital; and there is a significant relationship between the level of awareness and degree of intention to use aromatherapy. It is recommended that nurses should keep on learning about the use of aromatherapy as a complementary pain management and eventually use it for their patients; for patients and significant others to learn and accept the use of aromatherapy as a means of complementary pain management as part of their treatment regimen; for hospital administrators to support and help the nurses in terms of their training and workshops on the use of aromatherapy as a complementary pain management; for other health care team members to support nurses in their journey towards learning and eventually use aromatherapy as complementary pain management for their patients; for future researchers to use the result of this study as a reference material for future researchers in terms of utilizing aromatherapy as complementary pain management.
