The most popular way to use Essential Oils is Diffusion. Not all Essential Oils are right for this method, but most are. Diffusion is accomplished through the use of a diffuser to fill the air with a fine mist of your Essential Oil(s) of choice.

Topical application is applying the Essential Oils directly to the skin on key areas or effected areas.

Applying the Essential Oil to the skin is a great way to ensure quick absorption by the body, and reap the powerful health benefits of Essential Oils.
Essential Oils can be used in countless ways within the home.
