Guest guest Posted July 25, 2000 Report Share Posted July 25, 2000 Hi Jean Oh, now I see all of your message. You wrote: < Some years ago there was a recorded incident where a health worker, working in the vicinity of a patient being massaged with lavender had an anaphylactic reaction to the lavender.> I find this hard to understand, as I was under the impression that only substances containing proteins can cause anaphylactic shock (eg beestings). Essential oils do not contain proteins. Is there someone on the list (Ron, are you there?) who can confirm or explain this?
