Aromatherapy Safety: Using Essential Oils in the Bath

In This Article

Demonstrating Essential Oil Safety

I love a languorous soak in an aromatic bath. It can energize, relax, or refresh, depending on your choice of oils. Recently, I’ve received a few questions on how to use essential oils safely in the bath.

While EOs should always be used with caution (hence why we’re dedicating an entire blog series to safety!), bathing with essential oils should be a soothing and cleansing experience. It shouldn’t strike fear into your heart. 

That said, I decided to make a video tutorial demonstrating my tips and tricks for safely enjoying essential oils in the bath to be sure you get the most out of your aromatic bathing experience. Enjoy!

What are some of your tried-and-true methods for bathing with essential oils? Tell me in the comments.
