What You NEED To Know About Essential Oils

With more and more people these days interested in natural pain management methods and products, more and more people are beginning to look into these oils. While public awareness of these powerful, potent, healthy and safe natural healing oils has begun to boil over most people still dont have an understanding of what they are and how they work. Lets look at a couple of the more common questions people have about these tools for natural pain treatment.

What are Essential Oils?

To start with, the oils are herbal medicine oils derived from medicinal plants through the process of distillation. The distillation process concentrates the plants healing properties, which is why small doses of essential oils provide incredible potency.

Why Are Essential Oils Blended?

Now, most people notice that while its possible to order pure essential oils that only contain the distilled properties of a single plant, a lot of the time theyre going to find products that include a variety of different oils within them blended together. These blends are produced because experts have found that different oils have a synergistic effect on each other when it comes to pain control. Not only will taking a blend of these oils provide you with a range of medicinal properties and natural healing effects, but these blends also increase the strength and effectiveness of each oil contained within them.

How Long Should I Use Essential Oils?

The length of time that youll need to use your oil blend will depend greatly on what youre using them for. People who are using essential oils for natural pain relief will only need to use these oils until their pain dies down. Generally speaking if you use these oils topically you can expect to begin to feel their pain management effects within about 15 minutes of application, and they will fully flush out of your system within about four hours after application. Continue using for pain treatment until your injury is fully healed. You will know that your condition is resolved when your pain is gone on regular basis. If youre using oils for more maintenance reasons (such as relaxation, as an all-natural sleep aid, etc.) than you want to use them daily and persistently.

Are Essential Oils Safe?

Finally its important that you understand these oils are extremely powerful. Just because they are all herbal medicine and organically derived doesnt mean that you can take them indiscriminately. They are, first and foremost, medicine and all medicines need to be taken responsibly- even alternative medicines. Generally speaking you should only take a minimum dosage of essential oils every day- just enough to receive your desired effect, and often its a good idea to cycle off of them here and there to make sure you dont develop a resistance to their effects. The specific minimum treatment level varies from oil to oil, need to need, and is explicitly stated on the side of each bottle you purchase.

Hopefully the above answers to common questions helped relieve some of your concerns or uncertainty regarding aromatherapy oils as a natural healing and pain treatment. These oils provide you with a truly powerful and all natural method of pain relief and treating various physical, mental and emotional problems you might be experiencing. While you should approach them with a certain level of caution, overall essential oils are considerably safer and healthier for you than synthetic lab created drugs and treatments, and provide a truly viable holistic alternative to truly dangerous drugs.
