Therapeutic Oils, known as nature’s living energy, are the natural, aromatic volatile liquids found in shrubs, flowers, trees, roots, bushes, and seeds. The distinctive components in therapeutic oils defend plants against insects, environmental conditions, and disease. They are also vital for a plant to grow, live, evolve, and adapt to its surroundings. Therapeutic oils are extracted from aromatic plant sources via steam distillation and are highly concentrated and far more potent than dry herbs.
While therapeutic oils often have a pleasant aroma, their chemical makeup is complex and their benefits vast—which makes them much more than something that simply smells good.
Historically, therapeutic oils have played a prominent role in everyday life. With more than 200 references to aromatics, incense, and ointments throughout the Bible, therapeutic oils are said to be used for anointing and healing the sick. Today, therapeutic oils are used for aromatherapy, massage therapy, emotional wellness, personal care, nutritional supplements, household solutions, and much more.
