Description
Warm, woody, smoky, and sweet, palo santo essential oil is traditionally used for rituals and purification. Its name means “holy wood.” Palo santo brings security, as well as sense of well-being and connection to the nature, and is popular for meditation and spiritual practices. AroMed’s wildcrafted palo santo essential oil has a woody, slightly sweet, resin aroma, and is steam distilled from branches and trunks that naturally fall from wild trees in the mountains of Ecuador.

Caution:
Palo Santo should not be used for prolonged periods of time as it has potential to tax the liver. When blending, a good guideline is 5-10 drops per 1 ounce of carrier maximum. Skin sensitization is possible if using old and/or oxidized oils. Essential Oils are typically used via inhalation and/or topical application while properly diluted. Do not take internally unless working with a qualified aromatherapy practitioner to address a specific health need, for a specified period of time. Keep away from children and pets.
