Aromatherapy Properties:
(Uses)
Pennyroyal
should be used with extreme caution. Its scent is herbaceous and minty. It
is a well known emmenagogue; do not use during pregnancy. Has some use in
menstrual difficulties, often used to bring on menstruation. It's valuable
in repelling insects on animals. Can be diluted either in alcohol or vinegar
as a rub to kill fleas. Pennyroyal
should not be used in aromatherapy treatments on humans as it is considered
to be an oral toxin and uterine abortive. Many aromatherapists will
not use this oil. |

Pure
&
Therapeutic Essential Oils : |
|
This oil is Therapeutic Grade. Commercial Grade essential oils are usually made of the
left over plant materials after finishing the therapeutic distillation process.
The commercial
grade oils retain a robust fragrance suitable for soap making, candle making, as
well as cosmetic manufacturing. Unfortunately, because of the reduced active
therapeutic content, the commercial grade oils will not be suitable for aromatherapy or massage
therapy applications.
Silky Scents Essential Oils are all Pure and Therapeutic Grade, not
Commercial Grade. |
