Aromatherapy can be used to treat a multitude of afflictions from depression to aches and pains through the form of bath oils, bath salts, air freshener and massage oil.  Each oil has its own unique scent and therapeutic purpose.

Though generally safe, essential oils are highly concentrated and can be harmful if not used carefully. If used wisely, aromatherapy can be highly beneficial to your health and lifestyle. Keep in mind, however, that aromatherapy should not be used as a substitute for proper medical treatment.

Essential oils are not meant to be ingested and avoid using undiluted essential oils on the skin. Body treatments should always be mixed accordingly with a carrier oil.

Gemlite Gems of Knowledge:
Bath Salts

Ingredients:

3 cups Dead Sea salt, regular sea salt or Epsom salt, or a blend of two or three of these salts. Sea salts typically come in several grain sizes. Combining multiple grain sizes can make your salts more appealing. Keep in mind, however, that more course grains do take longer to dissolve in the tub.

15-24 drops of your selected essential oil or essential oil blend. Be sure and take heed in the safety data for the oil(s) you choose to use.

1 tablespoon jojoba oil for moisturization (optional)

Directions:

Place the salt mixture into a bowl. Add the drops of your chosen essential oils. Mix very well with a fork. Add the mixture to a pretty jar, salt tube, or container that has a tight fitting lid. After a day, you may wish to mix well again to ensure that the oils have blended very well.

Add 1/2 - 1 cup of the salts to running bath water. Mix well to ensure that the salt has dispersed well in the tub before entering. To keep the essential oils from evaporating too quickly, you can add the bath salts just before getting in the tub instead of while the water is running. Make sure the salts have dissolved well before entering.
