Natural Essential Oil for Aromatherapy

Buy Pure Essential Oil (essential oil / aromatic oil)

Essential oil is the essence or life force of a plant. They have powerful properties of herbs, seeds, plants, bark, leaves and flowers from which they are extracted.

Sometimes an essential oil is distilled from different parts of a plant. For example, you have Neroli oil that is distilled from orange blossom and orange oil that is distilled from the peel of the orange.

All oils are natural, undiluted or adulterated and comply with the European pharmacopoeia and are suitable for aromatherapy.

Different forms of Essential Oil

Pure essential oils are usually liquid, but can also be solid or semi-solid.
This depends on the temperature and the species. They can be dissolved in pure alcohol, fats and oils, but not in water.

What exactly is a pure essential oil?

A pure essential oil is a concentrated oil that is extracted by steam distillation, cold pressing or extraction from aromatic plants or plant substances such as wood, herbs, plants, citrus, flowers, resin and spices. Essential oils from medicinal plants are also called essential oils.

The essential oil is extracted from leaves, seeds, flowers, bark and citrus peel in the country of origin. Quite a lot of oils such as Rosemary, Orange, Lemon, Bergamot and Oregano come from the Mediterranean. But there are also many oils from China, America, Japan, Australia, etc.

Different types of essential oils come from different areas and countries.
For example, Lemon oil comes from Italy, Patchouli oil from Indonesia and Lavender oil from France.

Because essential oil floats on the water in a decanter vessel, the bottom layer in this vessel is used as flower water and the essential oil is drained from the top layer.
All essential oils have their own wonderful scents and special effect.

It often doesn't matter whether you use organic essential oil or natural essential oil, because they both come from nature. We choose to only supply natural essential oils since organic oil is often the same natural oil with an organic certificate. It therefore makes no difference in the smell and effect of the essential oil. This works, for example, with Eucalyptus oil. In our opinion, this makes the oil unnecessarily expensive.

Different variants of essential oils are Tea Tree oil, Eucalyptus oil, Orange oil, Cedar oil, Basil oil, Sandalwood oil and Bergamot oil.

Operation Essential Eucalyptus oil Essential oil from the Eucalyptus tree was used as food for Koala bears from Australia. Which is not surprising, because most of Australia is densely covered with Eucalyptus trees. The oil is distilled from freshly picked leaves from the tree and only then is concentrated enough to be usable as real Eucalyptus oil. Eucalyptus is often used in rooms to refresh the room and to improve the breathing and concentration of the people in the room. That is why Eucalyptus oil, in addition to the fact that this scent is often used in the sauna, is also used in schools and business premises. Eucalyptus oil is the number 1 oil in fighting colds. Steam over a bowl of hot water and add a few drops of oil to this water. Put a towel over the head and steam this way for as long as it feels comfortable. Due to the properties of the volatile essential oil, the cold will be over a lot faster. Eucalyptus oil can also be used in aroma diffusers, aroma burners or on aroma stones for a wonderful scent in any desired space.

Essential Oil Sauna

Essential oil can be used in the sauna to pour on for a wonderful scent in the sauna.
Use 15 to 40 drops of essential oil in the sauna tub with water or in an ice ball for a wonderful scent during the pouring session.

Benefits of pouring with pure essential oil

Because the fragrance products are not diluted, you experience the natural scent optimally in the sauna.
The smell emerges a little later, but lingers a little longer in the sauna cabin.
Essential oil mixes can also be used in the sauna during the infusion.
Hamam mix is the most popular scent of the mixes.
We have a wide range of natural essential oils, so there is a lot of choice to create a beautiful infusion.

Tip

Only use essential oil in the sauna if you count drops and do not pour a dash of oil on an ice ball or in the sauna bucket with water.
When pouring essential oil, take a good look at the fragrance strengths and the fragrance tones.

Fragrance strengths

Preferably start with a low fragrance strength and finish with a higher fragrance strength to be able to smell all scents properly during the sauna session.

Fragrance notes

Preferably start with an overtone, then use a middle tone and finish with an undertone.
Or use Lemongrass, Pine or Orange oil to neutralize the smell in the sauna.

Do not use product directly on the stove or on the skin

Do not use essential oil directly on the heater or directly on the skin.
If you stir the essential oil in the water of the sauna tub, it is no longer a fire hazard when the mixture is poured onto the sauna heater when it is scooped from the bottom of the sauna bucket.

Do not pour from the sauna bucket

Do not pour from the sauna bucket, because then the essential oil will first come on the sauna heater instead of the water. Or it must be that the sauna bucket only contains water. A watering can can be used instead of a sauna bucket.

Pour on the sauna heater on dry parts and in lanes to better spread the scent in the cabin and to keep the elements of the sauna heater intact for longer.

Use ice and water separately when pouring

It works best by putting the essential oils in containers with an ice ball in it. Putting the ice balls on the stove and then pouring water around them with no odor.
