Methods Of Application

For an in-depth reference on how to apply and use essential oils I highly recommend the Reference Guide for Essential Oils by Connie Higley.

Topical Application

  1. Vita Flex Technique  A simple method of applying oils to contact points (or nerve endings) on the body. Using a series of hand rotation movements over these points creates a vibrational healing energy that carries the oils along the neuroelectrical pathways removing blockages and benefiting organs.

  2. Raindrop Technique  This is a simple application of dropping certain oils like drops of rain from about six inches above the body along the entire length of the spine. It is designed to align the energy centers of the body and release them if blocked. It also is a tremendous boost to the immune systems as it releases toxins and kills viruses that have accumulated along the spine.

  3. Auricular Technique  A method of applying the oils to the rim of the ears. Especially effective for emotional clearing.

  4. Perfume or Cologne  Worn as a fragrance the oils can provide wonderful emotional and physical support during your day.

Compresses

  1. Basin  Fill a wash basin with two quarts of hot water and add the desired essential oil. Stir vigorously then lay a towel on top of the water absorbing the oils. When towel is saturated, wring out water and place over area needing compress. Cover with dry towel and hot water bottle or heating pad. Leave on for 10 to 60 minutes.

  2. Massage  Apply hot wet towel and dry towel on top of massaged area. The moist heat will allow the oils to penetrate deeper.

Inhalations

  1. Diffuser  The easiest way to put oils into air for inhalation. Cold air diffusers are preferable to a heat source which will alter the oil. Essential oils, when diffused, have been found to reduce the amount of airborne chemicals and metallics as well as help create greater spiritual, physical, and emotional harmony.

  2. Cloth or Tissue  Place one to three drops of an essential oil on a paper towel, tissue, cotton ball or handkerchief and inhale.

  3. Hot Water  Put one to threedrops of an essential oils into hot water and inhale.

  4. Vaporizer or Humidifier  Place oil in vaporizer or humidifier. Cold air types are best.

  5. Fan or Vent  Simply place oil on a cotton ball and place in air vents or on ceiling fans.

Baths

  1. Bath Water   Add three to six drops of oil to bath water while tub is filling. Soak for 15 minutes allowing the skin to absob the oils.

  2. Bath & Shower Gel  Add three to six drops of oil to 1/2 ounce of a bath and shower gel base and add to water while tub is filling. This allows more even dispersion of oils as they will not readily separate.

Dishwater, Clothes Washers & Dryers

Add a couple of drops of Melrose or Lemon for clean dishes and a great smelling kitchen! A few drops of Purification in the wash water will kill bacteria and germs in clothes.
