as a wonderfully uplifting and calming, flowery scent. It is excellent for the
skin, and its aromatic influence helps release negative memories. Used traditionally
to support the circulatory, respiratory, reproductive, and nervous systems, a great deal
of its strength lies in its ability to revitalize tissues.* Most essential oils work best when blended
with each other. The right combination will enhance the effects and power of the

Geranium Testimonials
"My mother had dental surgery on her mouth one day and I was the
one to take her home. Her face was very swollen and she was bleeding
quite a bit inside of her mouth.
When we got home I had her rub the balsam fir and frankincense on her face.
I then had her rub geranium oil on her gums. She laid down for a nap for an
hour and a half. When she woke up her swelling was gone and she said that
the geranium oils stopped her bleeding immediately! She was very happy!"

"I've put about 8 drops of geranium in the bathtub (with 1/4 filled with water)
to clean all the germs and bacteria. I noticed the water was very light brownish when
I first let the water come out in to the tub. I let it soak for about 35 minutes/45 minutes.
After that I notice the water turning into very light cobalt blue. I guess this is a good sign the water's being cleaned up too?"
"I was told by my doctor that I had carpel tunnel and may have to have surgery. With the regimen I found in the Essential oils reference manual I finally got relief. Just rubbing cypress, geranium, balsam fir, juniper, peppermint and marjoram on my wrists took care of my carpel tunnel. These oils are miraculous. I wish I had known about them early on in my life."
