General Safety Information: Do not take any oils internally
without consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Do not apply
undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated essences onto the skin. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have
liver damage, have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils
only under the proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use
extreme caution when using oils with children and give children only
the gentlest oils at extremely low doses. It is safest to consult a qualified
aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children. A skin
patch test should be conducted prior to using an oil that you've never
used before. Instructions on conducting a skin patch test
and more safety information can be found by visiting the Safety
Information page. For very in-depth information on oil safety
