What are Essential Oils?
Essential Oils have been extracted from: 
flower petals, fruit skins, grasses, tree resin, herbs, roots, leaves,
tree bark, seeds, twigs, fruit kernels, berries and spices.
Essential Oils are so molecularly fine, that they are able to penetrate the 4 million pores of our skin, all seven layers of skin tissue, and every muscle layer, where they enter the bloodstream, and perform medicinally, much in the same way that any drug would, except without all the awful side effects.
SKIN PENETRATION OF ESSENTIAL OILS
It has been medically proven that certain substances can penetrate the skin.
Trans-dermal or skin patches have been around for decades. The first one ever used, for menopausal symptoms, was so famous that it became known as ‘The Patch.’ The way it worked was that by sticking the patch on your skin, over your ovary areas, you were allowing hormones to pass through your skin, into your bloodstream.
Since then, many patches have come onto the market, from migraine patches to tobacco patches. Recently, the FDA approved a caffeine patch, which allows caffeine to be absorbed by the body, over a period of four hours.
ESSENTIAL OILS WORK JUST LIKE PATCHES
Essential Oils work similarly to patches, in that they penetrate the skin. They perform similarly to drugs, in the way that they alter the body’s own chemicals, once in the bloodstream.
A distillery extracts the finest plant oils from the plant. These Essential Oils contain hundreds of natural plant substances. For example, Lavender Essential Oil contains over 200 natural phyto-chemicals. Two of these phyto-chemicals, Linalool and Linalyl Acetate, are anti-inflammatory.
How Do You Know Which Essential Oil Companies to Trust?
There are many companies that sell essential oils, but a lot of them are owned and run by people who are not actually Aromatherapists. This may seem alarming, and you are right – it is alarming!
These companies simply sell an entire list of Essential Oils A – Z, not realizing that many of them are toxic, dangerous, and should never be used.
To make matters worse, there are no warnings on their websites, regarding the dangers of even the safe oils, such as is found here, on Garden of Essences website: SAFETY DATA – ESSENTIAL OILS.
An Essential Oil Company should provide extensive knowledge on BLENDING AND APPLYING ESSENTIAL OILS.
because using the oils, without accurate dilution, can cause many problems.
