How is lemon oil used in aromatherapy?
In aromatherapy the oil is used for diffusion and for dilution into massage and bath blends, valued for its fresh, uplifting character.
Practice
- Diffusion: a few drops in a diffuser; citrus oils are used for short sessions.
- Massage and topical use: dilute in a carrier oil, typically 1-2%, and patch test first.
- Blends: citrus-herb or citrus-floral blends for a bright, clean room character.
The oil is phototoxic (bergapten-controlled), so avoid sun exposure on treated skin. G4S supplies the SDS and the allergen declaration for professional use.
