Organic Essential Oils

Aromatherapy uses essential oils to assist the body's own natural defences and create a sense of well-being. These oils, the 'essence' of the plants they are derived from, have been used for centuries for their healing and fragrant properties.

We use only the fiinest quality oils available from around the world and every oil in our organic collection has been certified by the Soil Association and can be traced back to the farm where the plant was grown and through each stage in production until it reaches you.

We have 20 organic essential oils and 5 organic carrier oils in our range as well as a variety of diffusers. We've given some suggesed applications but have fun creating your own blend to suit your mood. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.
