Shirley Price Care For - Everyday aromatherapy

Here are some of the items of the Shirley Price Care For range with their ingredients and descriptive properties of the essential oils listed.

I thought it interesting to list some of the clinical trials against the oil and against the care for mixes.

The thing that strikes you is that while the individual oils and their constituents have clinical trials of their effectiveness in clinical aromatherapy for treatment of infection and disease of mind and body this is not really of relevance their use in blends for everyday aromatherapy.
