If you have animals please be careful using them. The vets are finding out they are very toxic to animals. Only thing I use is Lavender Epsom Salt and baking soda soak. Wish there were oil I could use and not hurt my animals.
I use peppermint oil when Iβm getting / have a bad tension headache or migraine. I put it on my lobes and use a diffuser and put it by my bed. I also use other calming oils like lavender for my pillow to help me sleep. Cedar wood also is very calming for me and I put it on my chest as it aids my anxiety. Lemon and lemongrass are great pick me ups / wake ups. Any can be put into a diffuser.
While aroma therapy can help with some things I wouldn't advise anyone to go with Essential Oils the company is a pyramid scheme and the FDA has spoken out against them.
