AROMATHERAPY BATH : USE OF ESSENTIAL OILS

Essential oil bath
 
 The baths with essential oils are against indicated in infants and small children.
 
 Their skin is very thin can be easily crossed by oil and spread rapidly in the blood, which can cause serious poisoning.
 
 For pregnant women, the baths are to be avoided, since many oils are too tonic for the uterus and can cause of repeated abortion or premature birth.
 
 This last remark is also valid for products such as bath foam, bath salts or softening in oil bath.
 
 First major principle:
 
 Never add essential oils directly into the bath. We run the risk of skin reactions and burns the eyes and mucous membranes.
 
 The oils can not be diluted in water. It must first dilute the oils in a liquid that is mixed to make the bath water. The most current, more natural, less expensive and does not affect the qualities of essential oils is the whole milk.
