Essential oils and pregnancy

[Guest guest]

I have a question regarding this issue but it may be helpful if

someone replies to it-can you give an aromatherapy massage by using a

massage oil with no eo's added and diffusing the essential oils into

the air? From what I've read here the eo's work through inhalation,

not skin absorbtion. So, is it possible to work in a well ventilated

room with a low concentration of oils simmering close to or perhaps on

the floor close to the person receiving the massage so they can inhale

the oils during the massage but the aromatherapist isn't touching them

and maybe inhaling a lower concentration of them? Susan

PS-the reason I ask this is because I remember reading (here, I think)

that the aromatherapist inhales much more of the eo during the massage

than the person receiving the massage as the vapors are rising to the

practitioner during the massage. Susan

Hi Ysha,

I tried to find the information on turning the baby in my notes using e-oils but

dont have it. do you have it archived anywhere? the mom I will be working with

wants to try it but I am not sure how she should apply and if peppermint and

Myrrh were for sure the oils you reccomend.

thanks, Sonya
