Therapeutic Index

This is an A to Z index of the most widely recommended essential oils for specific health issues. With this index you can choose the essential oil that you prefer to use for each problem. You can choose from your existing supplies rather than go shopping for a very particular oil that only exists on the dark side of the moon. Find the situation that you are trying to treat. Choose one of the oils you already have or at least shop for an oil that is easily available.

The essential oils are listed in alphabetical order, and the preferred, best, most effective or favorite is marked like *this. Remember, essential oils have both physiological as well as psychological use. Find the oil that works best for you.

Note: Some of these oils are applied externally, some are inhaled, many must be diluted before use, and a very few are ingested. Be sure to research each oil before using.
