Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils

We encourage you to explore the links provided here, whether you’re a professional aromatherapist looking for great resources, or you are someone who has recently been introduced to organic essential oil and its properties. These sites will help you be more informed about therapeutic grade essential oils as they’re the portals to organizations respected for improving scientific standards, furthering education about aromatherapy and monitoring quality and safety, etc.

This is also a good place to begin if you want to know what does and does not qualify as “therapeutic grade.” Essential oils, in truth, are not all the same. Those that are best are processed along strict standards. As stated here and by other respected sources for high-quality therapeutic essential oils, a true essential oil is extracted from plants with steam distillation or expression. Oils extracted through use of synthetic solvents (called absolutes) are not essential oils and are not fit for therapeutic use.
