Boswellia Carterii (Frankincense) Gum Oil

When used correctly, essential oils are completely safe and have a wide variety of uses. They are, however, very concentrated and powerful so certain precautions should be taken. If in any doubt about their safe use or effects, consult a qualified aromatherapist or seek medical advice. Some general guidelines for safe use are:

• Do not take Essential Oils internally unless under the supervision of a Qualified Practitioner licensed to prescribe oils for internal use.
• Avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes.
• Seek professional/medical advice before use if you are pregnant.
• Seek advice from a qualified Aromatherapist before using any essential oils on babies and small children.
• Seek medical advice before use if you have a medical condition (such as epilepsy, high blood pressure, etc).
• If you have an adverse reaction to an essential oil, stop use immediately and seek professional/medical advice.
• Do not use essential oils undiluted on the skin (or undiluted in the bath).
• Some essential oils have specific contra-indications – always follow the individual precautions given by Absolute Aromas.
