Aromatherapy Recipes or Blends for Better Health
Aromatherapy Recipes or Blends
The following is just a few Aromatherapy Recipes or Blends to give you an idea of how you can use Essential Oils to greatly improve your general health and well-being.
Aromatherapy Recipes are what people refer to as the mixtures of oils that work synergistically to alleviate certain health problems.
Howevver, Aromatherapy Recipes is really not the correct term for these mixtures of essential oils. The proper term is - "Aromatherapy Blends", referring to the powerful Blend of Oils used.
The following are some examples of simple, yet powerful blends or recipes for general Hair Care...
HAIR CARE
OIL TREATMENT FOR DAMAGED, DRY HAIR
Hair that has been damaged by weather, perming or bleaching, can be improved by a once-a-week oil treatment.
The hair should be parted into sections and the oil blend applied along the partings with a piece of cotton wool, which has been dipped in the oil.
Once all the partings have been covered, stroke the oil down to the ends of the hair. When all the hair has been saturated, pile it on top of the head and wrap in a towel. Leave the oil on for one or two hours before washing it off.
Shampoo should be applied to the hair and worked in before adding any water.
If water is added first it is difficult to remove all the oil.
Recipe for damaged hair:
15 drops Rosewood
5 drops Geranium
5 drops Lavender
10 mls Jojoba
50 mls vegetable oil |
Treatment for greasy hair:
12 drops Bergamot
13 drops Lavender
5 mls Jojoba
50 mls vegetable oil |
Treatment for dandruff:
10 drops Eucalyptus
15 drops Rosemary
5 mls Jojoba
50 mls vegetable oil
Apply as for damaged hair but massage well into the scalp |
Treatment for hairloss:
7 drops Juniper
9 drops Lavender
9 drops Rosemary
50 mls vegetable oil
Massage well into scalp. |
HAIR RINSES
The use of any Essential Oil in a hair rinse will impart a lovely natural smell to the hair; but some Essential Oils are particularly good for different hair colours.
Add the Essential oil to a litre bottle of water and shake well before pouring over the hair. If you have short hair you will not need a litre of rinse but the mixture may be kept for a few days till your next shampoo.
Dark hair
3 drops Rosemary
1 drop Rosewood
1 drop Geranium
1 litre water
This blend will bring lustre
and depth to dark hair |
Fair Hair
2 drops Chamomile
1 drop Lemon
1 litre water
This blend has a natural lightening effect on fair hair and at the same time will improve the condition of dry bleached hair. |
