Many ask me do essential oils actually work? I answer a quick yes, they work and they work well. However, people need to know how to use them. There is a wrong way and a right way. A safe way and unsafe way. Just like anything too much or too little can lead to ineffective results or dangers.
If you get a pill from a doctor because it will cure what ails you take it. You do not take over the dosage and you follow the directions. That pill may make you will or you may be allergic to it. The same goes for essential oils. You need to know the correct way to use each individual oil to get the best results and to be safe. When you do learn how to use essential oils safely you can then reap the benefits.
