Guest guest Posted December 7, 1999 Report Share Posted December 7, 1999 Hi April The subject of essential oils and homeopathy often comes up. Old school homeopaths will tell you the two don't mix (the oils being so strong smelling, antidote the remedies). Then some will tell you just to avoid eucalyptus and pepperming, as well as camomile if you're taking them for menopausal problems. Then again, homeopaths trained more recently might tell you it doesn't matter. I would say, try using both. If the remedies don't work, then say goodbye to the eos for a while. As for me, I find the remedies work even if I use my oils and drink coffee. I have some information gleaned from another list on a conference in Holland (I think) where this question is debated. I will mail it to you privately. If anyone else wants it, let me know. Helen in Cape Town Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 8, 1999 Report Share Posted December 8, 1999 Hi Helen, I'd love the info too! I was just discussing this with a friend today who was told by her Homeopath that it wasn't that big a deal. I suggested that she not use the oils for the day or so that she was taking the homeopathic formula. Wishing you well in all ways, Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I can't help you with your question, as I'm very new to aromatherapy. I hope you're well, and that you have gotten the answer that you were looking for.
