Essential oils are extremely versatile to
use. The best-known method involves
combining one or more essential oils with
a vegetable base or carrier oil to make a
"massage oil." aromatherapists use these
for medicinal or therapeutic purposes and
usually apply them with massage.
However, a massage oil can also simply be
applied to the body, as one would apply
any body oil, lotion, or cream.
Aestheticians use essential oil massage
oils to improve skin tone. At home,
essen¬tial oils can be used in both these
ways, but all this is just the tip of the
iceberg because essential oils can be used
in literally dozens of ways.
