Essential Oils

I have recently been introduced to essential oils and I have been incorporating them in my massages as my clients ask. But not just any essential oils, Young Living Essential Oils. 🙂 They are the best of the best, top of the line, purest of the pure oils produced! I actually am highly sensitive to fragrences and purfumes and have shied away from using oils the last 5 years because of that problem and not wanting my clients to have the same issue.

But after having several requests to carry and utilize oils in massages, I did some research and found a dear woman who is a distributer and fell in love with the products! Since this company is so dedicated to keeping their products pure, I know that I am applying only the oil of the pure herb, fruit, plant that is in the bottle. Since the skin is the biggest organ in the body I believe that it is immensely important what is applied to it!

So now that you know why I back this company, I would like to tell you why I am so excited to use them. 🙂 Each oil has specific health properties and uses, for example, Lavender is used for restlessness, insomnia, nervousness, and depression. It is also used for a variety of digestive complaints including meteorism (abdominal swelling from gas in the intestinal or peritoneal cavity), loss of appetite, vomiting, nausea, intestinal gas (flatulence), and upset stomach.

Some people use lavender for painful conditions including migraine headaches, toothaches, sprains, nerve pain, sores, and joint pain. It is also used for acne and cancer, and to promote menstruation.

Lavender is applied to the skin for hair loss (alopecia areata) and pain, and to repel mosquitoes and other insects.

Some people add lavender to bathwater to treat circulation disorders and improve mental well being.

By inhalation, lavender is used as aromatherapy for insomnia, pain, and agitation related to dementia.

In foods and beverages, lavender is used as a flavor component.
Just to name a few uses! And that is just one oil!! So come in & see me and we will see what an oil or two can do for you. 🙂
