- Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2024Since my wife gave me this book I have expanded my essential oil collection greatly because the book offers tons of practical uses that are easy to understand and make use of.
The book’s explanations of wintergreen and cypress have been immensely helpful. I have cubital tunnel, tendinosis of my extensor carpi ulnaris, and rotator cuff tendinitis all in my right arm. My favorite remedy is to rub Tiger Balm on my arm, followed by wintergreen and cypress oils. My arm feels cool and relaxed, and the pain stays at bay for hours!

This is my first book on essential oils and I chose well. This book won't disappoint. It explains how to purchase essential oils and their uses and there are some recipes. I would recommend purchasing this book. The only thing I wished it had was good sources for purchasing organic essential oils but I did find one source through a google search.
