Frequently Asked Questions
How do I safely dilute this oil for professional treatment?
Always blend pure essential oils into a professional carrier medium (such as jojoba or sweet almond oil) before topical application. For typical bodywork sessions, maintain a clinical dilution ratio of 1% to 2% (approximately 5 to 10 drops of essential oil per ounce of carrier oil) to ensure safety and prevent dermal sensitization.
Are there any specific contraindications or safety warnings I should be aware of?
Yes. Certain pure botanicals (such as citrus oils) carry phototoxic risks and should not be exposed to direct sunlight post-treatment, while others require caution for pregnant, nursing, or epileptic clients. Always perform an initial intake review and consult our comprehensive safety charts before application.
What is the best way to store this oil to prevent premature oxidation?
Keep the bottle tightly capped and stored in a cool, dark, temperature-stable environment away from direct sunlight and humidity. Storing your clinical backbar inventory in amber glass containers prevents UV light breakdown, maximizing shelf-life and preserving active chemical potency.

Most supplies, accessories, and on-the-shelf items typically are shipped out within 1 to 2 business days, barring unforeseen backorders. If you’ve also ordered items that are "built to order" such as some customized tables they typically ship from the manufacturer's warehouse within 7 to 14 business days or longer for larger stationary or lift tables. If you’ve ordered multiple items from multiple brands then you’ll probably receive multiple box shipments that arrive on different days. Weather and backorders will increase these estimates.
