High quality essential oils are steam distilled from petals, leaves, stems and or roots of plants. The scent of these oils effects the limbic system in the brain and therefore has a therapeutic effect. Lavender is calming, lemongrass is energizing and cinnamon is strengthening. Essential oils are also anti-microbial and keep a lotion stable.

When I talk about my own essential oil blends, I am referring to a mixture of several oils of equal quality to create a complex scent that is pleasing and healing at the same time.
