Aplication Methods

Essential oils can be useful to alleviate, treat or cure due to the medicinal, cosmetic and holistic properties. We encourage professional guidance if used as treatment.

Oils should be stored away from direct sunlight and heat, in a dark glass container to prevent photo-oxidation.

Essential oils are highly volatile, so keep containers securely closed or sealed at all times. As any other substance, keep out of the reach of children.

Essential oils are most of the time diluted in a vegetable base oil to prevent irritation. Lavander, tea tree and mint can be applied neat prior to a skin patch test.

The following is a dilution table and suggestion guide for methods of application:

Massage:

The most common and favorite way to experience aromatherapy! The blend used should be picked according to the needs and mood you want to create. Once its prepared according to the dilution table, apply  with circular motion of palms, knuckles, fingers with desired pressure to help release the tension and toxins. If the massage is to relieve digestive disorders (see peppermint) the circular movements on the stomach should be counterclockwise

Potpurri:

Let some drops fall on your dried leaves, bark, fruit, peel, seeds or flowers! Place in bowls or sachets around your home or office to bring a pleasant scent or to keep away plagues (ants, moths, cockroaches…).

Candles:

When the wax around the wick has melted apply a few drops of your desired oil, this will blend with the wax and burn slowly releasing the aroma.
