Essential Oils

 

Essential oils have been used for healing purposes for thousands of years.  Their benefits and risks spark quite a bit of controversy throughout the health and wellness community. Many proponents of oils note that they are a great option for treating common ailments due to their high potency and generally low risk of side effects.  However, not every oil is safe and not everyone responds in the same way to each oil.  Before using essential oils, do your research!  Know your own areas of sensitivity and experiment with safe strategies.  See my advice on my page regarding the dilution of essential oils.  Consult medical professionals for serious or persistent illnesses and inform them of any oil treatment you may be pursuing.  Find out about possible drug interactions before using oils.  Also, purchase high-quality oils, especially if you intend to use them topically or internally.  Keep oils out of reach of children and use caution when treating your children with oils.  Safety is my first concern in assisting you on your journey with essential oils.  Although I do a great deal of research before sharing strategies and recipes with you, I am not an expert nor a physician.  As with any OTC treatment, read and follow all directions prior to use.  If you are interesting in purchasing oils for yourself, click here to access my business page.

 Happy oiling!
