Ginger essential oil is a warming oil and excellent for aches and pains, as a bath oil or massage. It also blends well with orange and other citrus oils.
Aromatherapy has been practiced since the beginning of civilization. It is the art of using oils extracted from aromatic plants to enhance health and beauty. Apart from the physical benefits essential oils can have subtle effects on the mind and emotions. Essential oils are extracted from flowers, herbs, spices, woods and fibre usually by distillation. They are the true and vital energy of the plant and cannot be reproduced synthetically or chemically.
General Safety Information: Do not take any oils internally without consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Do not apply undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated essences onto the skin. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage, have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils only under the proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use extreme caution when using oils with children and give children only the gentlest oils at extremely low doses. It is safest to consult a qualified aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children. A skin patch test should be conducted prior to using an oil that you've never used before.
