It is important to know that even though the nutritional quality of plants, flowers, trees, roots, bushes, and seeds has declined over the last several hundred years due to pollution and pesticides, the inherent quality of the essential oil extracted has remained pure. Essential oils have the ability, due to their chemical structure to penetrate the cell wall and transport oxygen, nutrients, and antioxidents to the cell. When essential oils are diffused by an atomizer, they increase the amount of ozone in the air, inhibit bacterial and viral growth, and remove dust particles and mold from the surrounding atmosphere. The body's initial response to aromas has been proven to be as quick as one to three seconds, and within three to seven minutes after essential oils are applied to the skin, they penetrate the body tissues. Within twenty minutes, they will have migrated from the soles of the feet to the tips of the hair follicles.
Essential oils have a non-toxic, residual effect of up to five months from just one application.
The quality of an essential oil is paramount to its effectiveness in the body. The more diluted an essential oil is, the less effective it is in promoting healing.
