Discover natural health care alternatives that can increase your energy, control mood, support your immune system and remedy everyday ailments.  The beneficial healing properties of plants have been used since the beginning of time for a wide range of emotional and physical wellness applications.

​

Quality Matters

​

It’s important to use the best essential oils available. Be sure to choose products that are certified pure therapeutic grade (C.P.T.G):
 

• Sourced from expert growers committed to meeting the highest standards

• 100% pure and contain zero fillers, pesticides, chemicals, or artificial ingredients

• Tested for purity and composition after distillation and upon arrival for production

• Certified to have the correct chemical composition to achieve desired results
   

​

Using Essential Oils Safely

​

All application methods are safe when used appropriately. One or multiple application methods can be used in complex blends of three methods:

​

 

Aromatic

​

The sense of smell is a tool that can elicit powerful physiologic, mental, and emotional responses. Essential oils are quickly absorbed by the smell receptors, which have a direct link to the limbic system by way of the olfactory nerve. The limbic system is part of the brain that supports a variety of functions including smell, emotions, behavior, and memory. For this reason, essential oils have an especially powerful effect via aromatic application.

​

Some essential oils induce uplifting or invigorating effects, while others are more calming. Diffusion is one of the simplest methods for using essential oils aromatically. Diffusers that use cold air or water are ideal. However, using essential oils aromatically does not require any special diffusing devices.  You can achieve the same health benefits by simply placing a few drops of essential oil in the palm of your hand, rub your hands together briskly for a few seconds and then cup your hands around your nose as you breathe in, beginning with shallow breaths to gage the intensity, move your hands further away to lessen the intensity or closer with a deeper breath to enhance it.

​

 

Additional Aromatic uses For Essential Oils Include:

​

• Apply oil to a cotton ball and place in the air vents of your vehicle

• Mix oils in a spray bottle with water and mist over furniture, carpet, or linens

• Add oil to a batch of laundry or to dryer sheets

• Use in household surface cleaners

 

 

Topical

​

Topical application is a very effective method for applying essential oils. Because essential oils have low molecular weights and are lipid soluble, they easily penetrate the skin. Once absorbed, they stay in the applied area for a localized benefit.  Although essential oils are readily absorbed, there are many ways to increase absorption. Using a light massage will increase the blood flow to the area of application, in turn improving distribution throughout the body. Use of a carrier oil (such as Fractionated Coconut Oil) will increase the absorption rate, especially in dry skin and moisturize the skin while slowing the evaporation of the oil.

​

To decrease the likelihood of developing a skin sensitivity, especially on young or sensitive skin, it is advisable to use a carrier oil to dilute more potent oils, especially when trying an oil for the first time. The recommend dilution ratio is typically one drop of essential oil to three drops of carrier oil.

​

It’s always advisable to use several small doses throughout the day rather than a single large dose. Start with the lowest possible dose (1–2 drops). A topical dose can be repeated every 4–6 hours as needed. Because every individual is unique, the dose will vary for each individual based on size, age, and overall health status.

​

​

Beneficial Areas You Can Apply Essential Oils

​

• Neck

• Forehead and temples

• Chest and abdomen

• Arms, legs, and bottom of the feet

 

 

Other Effective Methods of Topical Application 

​

• Add a few drops of oil to a warm bath

• Make a hot or cold compress by soaking a towel or cloth in water, adding essential oils, and then applying to the desired area

• Add oil to a lotion or moisturizer and then apply to skin

 

 

Sensitive Areas to be Avoided:

​

• Some facial areas, such as the skin around the eyes

• Eyes and inner ears

• Broken, damaged, or otherwise injured skin

 

 

Internal

​

Internal use is a very safe and effective method, providing many potent health benefits.  When ingested, essential oils directly enter the blood stream via the gastrointestinal tract, where they react with cells and organs in different ways.  Essential oils are highly complex each possessing a unique set of biochemical properties that are lipid soluble so they are readily transported to all organs of the body, including the brain. 

 

Proper dosing according to labeling recommendations and other professional guidelines should be strictly followed to avoid toxicity.

 

Certain essential oils also have a rich culinary history adding flavor and aroma to foods.  When you sprinkle cinnamon on your oatmeal, sip a mug of peppermint tea, or add fresh basil leaves to your spaghetti, you are actually consuming aromatic essential oil compounds.​

 

​

Effective Methods of Internal Application 

​

• Use oils in recipes for cooking or baking to replace fresh or dried herbs and spices

• Remember that essential oils are much more potent than dried or fresh herbs and spices, so start with a very small amount

• For more potent oils, it may be better to administer them by toothpicks (dip the end of a clean toothpick into the oil and then add to the food) rather than drops

• Add essential oils to water, smoothies, milk, tea, or other drinks

• Take essential oils internally in a veggie capsule or add to a small amount of applesauce or yogurt
