SPA, OILS & EXTRACTS
Our Spa Collection features delightful blends of the highest quality all-natural essential oils. Aromatherapy products can be used in the bath, in aromatherapy lamps, or sprinkled in sachets. Massage oils are fragrant therapeutic essential oils blended into a base of pure sweet almond oil and ready to use.
Our essential oils are volatile, fragrant and 100% pure aromatic plant oils with no extenders or alcohol added. They are pure materials produced, in the case of true essential (volatile) oils, by distillation with water steam from the oil containing plant materials. After condensation, the water and oil phases separate. The cold-pressed (expressed) citrus oils such as bergamot, lemon, grapefruit, lime (expressed, not distilled), tangerine etc., some of which you buy from us, are commonly lumped with the essential oils but technically they are not, as they include non-volatile components. These are produced by expression (pressing) of the peels.
We use fresh plant material manufactured in strict accordance with the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States for our tinctures. Botanical extracts are made from dried plant material, at an extract ration of 1:4, 18-20% alcohol by volume. Fragrance oils are blends of synthetic oils, formulated for aromatic purposes only.
