Essential Oils

Essential oils are very powerful tools for health and wellbeing. Now The Sifre Center Qi store has a full collection of these organic oils. 

An essential oil is a concentrated oily liquid containing chemical compounds from plants, flowers, and trees. Essential oils have existed since ancient times. They are extracts. For example, Eucalyptus oil is extracted from the Eucalyptus tree.They can be used alone or can be mixed with other oils.

The use of essential oils is extensive and have a number of healthy effects from calming (Lavender), antibacterial-antiviral (Eucalyptus, Frankincense), anti fungal (Tea tree), etc... Most essential oils have antiseptic properties, but their uses are wide; like enhancing mood, better sleep, ease stress, relieve pain and nausea, repeal insects. Traditionally, essential oils are used topical--on skin--or through inhalation. 

Many of these oils are also used in aromatherapy. Some people may have allergies to some or all essential oils. So one should be careful if you have never used one. And when in doubt, always consult your health practitioner before beginning the use of an essential oil regime.
