AROMATHERAPY ESSENTIAL OILS

Pure Essential Oils are natural extracts from leaves, petals, gums, barks, berries, roots and fruit rinds. Being highly concentrated, they are effective in small doses. Store away from sunlight and heat and keep out of reach of children. 

Aroma is one of life’s greatest pleasures, promoting relaxation and balance in body, mind and spirit.

HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OILS

BATH: 5-10 drops dispersed into a full bathtub. This is one of the most effective, easiest and enjoyable methods of absorbing oils through your skin. Some of the rich dark oils such as Vetivert, Sandalwood, Patchouli, Jasmine and Myrrh can stain fiberglass bathtubs. To avoid this mix the oils with 1tsp of milk to disperse the oils effectively. One cup of Epsom Salts stirred into the bath water increases the absorption of the oils into the skin.

SHOWER: 2-4 drops on a wet cloth.  After washing, add 2-6 drops to your wet cloth, squeeze and press the cloth over your skin. Continue wetting the cloth and pressing onto your skin until the essential oils have dispersed. This is a beautiful way to naturally perfume your body and to enjoy the oil’s healing benefits. Use invigorating essential oils like Bergamot, Lemongrass, Lotus, Ravensara, or Rosewood for your morning shower and relaxing oils like Cedarwood, Frankincense, Jasmine, Oud, White Musk or Ylang Ylang for your evening shower. Also check out our essential oil blends for your showertime pleasure.

AROMABURNER (Also known as Vaporisation) : 2-8 drops in your aromaburner bowl will add a delightful ambience to any room or environment.  Use therapeutic oils like Eucalyptus, Recharge or Immune Tune during winter to keep the atmosphere healthy and relaxation, spicy or floral oils like Festive Cheer, Musk Mood or Deep Relax, for welcoming guests to celebrations or simply for end of day relaxation.  

MASSAGE: 15 drops of essential oil to 30mls of carrier oil. Massage is another effective and pleasurable way of dispersing essential oils onto the body.  Massage increases blood flow and helps to eliminate toxic waste in the body as well as being a nurturing relaxing experience.

STEAM INHALATION: 1 drop of essential oil to a bowl of steaming hot (not boiling) water, cover head and bowl with a towel, close your eyes and inhale the vapours deeply for several minutes.

DIRECT INHALATION: 2-4 drops applied to collars, cuffs and tissues to carry with you during the day, inhaling the vapours deeply and regularly.  1-3 drops of Sleep Well essential oil blend on upper the bed sheet can assist with sleeping difficulties and Flu Fix when you're all bunged up and feel lousy.
