APPLICATION
FORMS:
It is
important to emphasize that oils should never be ingested, or applied directly
to the skin. Therefore, always they used diluted with water, mixed with the so
called "base oils" (neutral oils) or by diffusion in the air.

depending on the chosen extract.
Bath:
We can take several drops of essential oils on the warm water in a bathtub and
then immerse for 15 or 20 minutes. By this means we are both inhaling the steam
of essential oils as allowing these penetrate through our skin. Alternatively
you can mix 3 to 5 drops of essential oil with three tablespoons of honey
before pouring it into water.
Inhalation:
We can put a few drops on a handkerchief and smell or we can take from 6 to 12
drops in a pot of boiling water, and then place a towel or blanket that covers
both our head and the pot and inhale the steam for several minutes. You should
be careful not to get too because we can burn the face with steam.

There in the market a wide variety of products to fill the space of a room or
office with the aroma of essential oils. These products, called diffusers or
atomizers, spread essential oils in a cloud of tiny particles. These diffusers
can be useful in cases of respiratory ailments or just to fill the air with a
fragrance either calming or stimulating. In office, the ultrasonic
essential oil diffuser might be a great help.

These can be hot or cold. They are used to relieve headaches, and muscle aches.
