Aromatherapy Recipes

There are a number of books explaining the background to aromatherapy and suggesting a wide variety of recipes. Our recommendation is Aromatherapy An A-Z.

We have also put together two Aromatherapy Sets to help with hot flushes and day & night sweats – here are the recipes which you can buy from the Natural Therapies section:

“Hot Flushes” Aromatherapy recipe

• 5 drops clary sage
• 5 drops geranium
• 3 drops lemon
• 2 drops sage
• Blend into 30ml of carrier oil and use as a massage oil or in the bath.

“Day & Night Sweats” Aromatherapy recipe

• 5 drops grapefruit
• 5 drops lime
• 3 drops sage
• 2 drops thyme
• Blend into 30ml of carrier oil and use as a massage oil or in the bath.

Aromatherapy is also one of the safest alternative medicines to be found. The only rules are never apply any essential oil directly onto the skin and never take the oils internally. The safest way to use them is in an oil burner, in the bath or as a massage oil.
