Usage tips
Essential oils are powerful natural substances and should therefore be used with care. Even if essential oils have been used since Antiquity, their mode of use and the precautions for use are often poorly known. Many books deal with essential oils. It is therefore advisable to refer to it to find out about the traditional modes of use.
As an indication, some examples of use
It is advisable to mix a few drops of essential oil with a vegetable oil (sweet almond, jojoba, macadamia, rosehip, argan, olive, etc.) to use it as a massage oil.
To promote good circulation and relieve leg problems (varicose veins, etc.) : 30 to 50 drops diluted in 100 ml of vegetable oil. Use as a leg massage or as a compress for 15 minutes.
To promote urinary comfort in middle-aged men : 20 drops of cypress + 20 drops of niaouli + 10 drops of wintergreen in 100 ml of vegetable oil. Massage the lower abdomen.
Against oily hair, mix 1 drop of cypress essential oil with 2 drops of lemon essence in your dose of shampoo.
To breathe more freely and in case of cough, diffuse between 30 and 45 minutes in the room, before going to bed or 2 to 3 drops on a handkerchief, then breathe. It will promote general tone, especially in cases of irritability or nervous or physical fatigue.
Against cough or hoarseness of the voice, put 2 drops of essential oil of cypress on a neutral tablet or in a teaspoonful of honey. Take this preparation 3 to 4 times a day until improvement.
Since essential oils are not soluble in water, they must be mixed with an emulsifier before pouring them into the bath (eg our dispersant Solubol®). For example, they can be mixed with a liquid soap or a neutral shampoo (1 tablespoon). Cypress essential oil in the bath will be excellent for weak return circulation, rheumatic pains, cramps, hot flashes, heavy legs, swollen ankles, tired feet, cellulite, hemorrhoids, shingles or herpes. Put 20 drops in the bath diluted in milk or other emulsifier. Stay in the bath for 15 minutes (no more) breathing deeply.
100% pure and natural oil
An essential oil is made up of chemically defined molecules (about 10,000 listed) that have been secreted by special plant cells. It can consist of from one to several hundred molecules, which helps explain why some essential oils have many properties but different therapeutic effectiveness. To guarantee the properties necessary for effective aromatherapy, it is important that an essential oil is 100% pure and natural (not cut, not deterpenated, not mixed with alcohol or vegetable oils) and preferably organic. This is the case for the essential oils we sell. They are sold in tinted bottles with a dropper cap.
Go to the "Properties and characteristics of essential oils" file. Whether pure or mixed, you can use them in our different diffuser models. The information given on each essential oil is for guidance only. Beware of self-diagnosis, do not hesitate to consult an aromatherapist or any other recognised professional and read our special file "properties of essential oils"in our thematic files.
