More about essential oils
Before chemicals, oils obtained from pure plant extracts (known as essential oils) were used to help improve the quality of life on a physical, emotional and spiritual level. Since then, essential oils have been found to heal skin, strengthen immunity and influence moods and feelings, assisting mental conditions such as stress and anxiety. Essential oils have the healing ability to work both therapeutically and medicinally.
