Aromatherapy:

One of the top benefits of Ginger Essential oil is definitely its mood-boosting and stress-reducing abilities. Add 8 to 10 drops in a diffuser or burner for the ultimate aromatherapy session.

To reap those benefits, simply dilute some Ginger Essential oil in any carrier oil you like and massage the affected area. Its warming effects will help soothe any muscle soreness.

Ginger is a bit of a wonder ingredient. Using the essential oil can be completely grounding, settling and calming. It reduces deep tension yet it is also revitalizing and regenerative.

Thanks to its soothing properties, Ginger oil can keep your scalp healthy and promote good circulation, resulting in enhanced hair growth.

Pets: 

Using essential oils on pets: 

The ability to tolerate essential oils is dependent on many factors, including plant species, product, dose, and route of application. Essential oil use cases show the most significant risk of toxicity is from direct skin application on your pet’s skin – these same cases also share that a large volume was applied directly and neat (pure without a carrier) to the pet’s skin. Knowing that there is a risk in using these oils to your pet’s fur or skin, we strongly recommend consultation with your veterinarian or animal care specialist prior to applying or exposure to any of our products.

If you’ve chosen to use essential oils around your pet, we first recommend taking note of your pets behavior, contacting your vet with any concerns, and the below list of R?t products that we feel are the most pet-friendly:

Single note essential oils:

  • Chamomile
  • Frankincense
  • Clary Sage
  • Geranium
  • Rosemary

Should you choose to use your ultrasonic diffuser in the presence of your pet, we recommend:

  • Using only small amounts of essential oils. 1-5 drops are our recommendation
  • Ensure the space is well ventilated with a window open slightly for fresh air
  • Always keep a door open so that the animal can enter and exit the room easily
  • Take note of how your pet responds at all times and if you notice your pet resisting an aroma, discontinue use and move them to a well-ventilated space
  • Be particularly mindful of pets that are in cages or enclosed spaces (including birds and small rodents) as they cannot leave the room if they become uncomfortable
