Lice are expulsed with lavender essential oil while tea tree oil kills them (gasses them). When applied with the viscous castor oil, lice cannot cling to the hair and scalp.

An effective treatment is to apply warmed Palm'Hydra Hair & Scalp to scalp (directions on package). Massage treatment into scalp and cover head with a shower cap for 30 minutes. Rinse and wash*
Treatment should be repeated 2 days later.

All bedding is to be laundered upon discovery of lice. Every morning thereafter (for 7-9 days) pillows and pillow cases should be placed in dryer on high heat for 15 minutes. A nit comb, used morning and evening, will ensure the infestation is over. To the untrained eye, mild dandruff can be mis-identified as lice. A good parent/teacher resource to identify lice.

To sooth isolated itching shake a few drops of pure tea tree oil onto localized area and massage into scalp.

Lice and castor oil


*Washing Head: A tea tree oil shampoo can be used. Best results are obtained when tea tree essential oil is added to 4oz water prior to adding dry Ghassoul to make a wash-paste. Use more water for longer hair.

What is frequency and how does it pertain to essential oils?


The following is an excerpt from the chapter "Science and Application" from the Reference Guide for Essential Oils by Connie and Alan Higley

Frequency is a measurable rate of electrical energy that is constant between any two points. Everything has an electrical frequency. Bruce Tainio of Tanio Technology in Cheny, Washington, developed new equipment to measure the bio-frequency of humans and foods. Bruce Tainio and Dr. D. Gary Young, a North American expert on essential oils, used this bio-frequency monitor to determine the relationship between frequency and disease. Some of the results of their studies are as follows:

Human Brain 72-90 MHz
Human Body (day) 62-68 MHz
Cold Symptoms 58 MHz
Flu Symptoms 57 MHz
Candida 55 MHz
Epstein Barr 52 MHz
Cancer 42 MHz
Death Begins 25 MHz

Processed/canned food 0 MHz
Fresh Produce up to 15 MHz
Dry Herbs 12-22 MHz
Fresh Herbs 20-27 MHz
Essential Oils 52-320 MHz


Note: Due to the sensitivity of the instruments, these results are not easily duplicatable. What is important is the relativity of the numbers and the fact that the higher frequency of the essential oils can help raise the frequency of the human body to a more normal level.

Another part of this same study measured the frequency fluctuations within the human body as different substances were introduced. The chart shown below illustrates the frequency reaction of the human body to the introduction of coffee. The subsequent time necessary for the frequency to return to its origional measurement was shown to be substantially reduced with the use of essential oils.


Frequency Reaction to Substance

Initially, the frequency of each of two different individuals---the first a 26 yr. old male and the second a 24 yr. old male---was measured at 66 MHz for both. The first individual held a cup of coffee (without drinking any) and his frequency dropped to 58 MHz in 3 seconds. He then removed the coffee and inhaled an aroma of essential oils. Withins 21 seconds, his frequency had returned to 66MHz. The second individual took a sip of coffee and his frequency dropped to 52 MHz in the same 3 seconds. However, no essential oils were used during the recovery time and it took 3 days for his frequency to return to the initial 66 MHz.

Chamomile Oil (Anthemis nobilis) is a slightly bitter oil that is used primarily in aromatherapy and has scientifically proven healing properties.

This is a true essential oils, distilled from Chamomile flowers and has been used in Europe for centuries. It is soothing and can help relieve nervous stress and tension build-up.

Part extracted: Peel of the fruit

Perfumery Note: Top

Aroma: Most people know this aroma through Earl Grey tea, which is flavored with Bergamot oil. It is a fruity citrus oil of spicy-floral freshness.

Aromatherapy properties: Great aroma to balance the mind and regenerate. Citrus oils help to eliminate emotional confusion and increase ones sense of humor and well-being.

Bergamot can be very phototoxic if the sensitizing component – furocoumarin – has not been removed from the oil.

We offer only furocoumarin-free Bergamot oil, since phototoxic pigmentation of the skin lasts for a long time, and we do not want anybody to have this experience.

Blends well with: Citrus Essential Oils blend well with a lot of different oils, “lifting” a blend to make it appear more energetic and lively. Neroli, Rose, Ylang Ylang, Patchouli, Geranium, Palmarosa and many others.

How to use it: Use a few drops in a diffuser to freshen the aroma climate of your home.

Sniff directly from the bottle to feel fresh and fight melancholy.

Citrus Essential Oils are among the few Essential Oils with a limited shelf life. Keep your citrus oils away from heat and direct sunlight and in tightly closed containers. Your fridge would be great. Try using them in 6 months after purchase. Older oils may not be appropriate for medicinal or skincare purposes, but can still add citrus-power to a diffuser blend.

History: When peeling a citrus fruit, you may experience the Essential Oil freely spraying from the peel when applying pressure. Squirting the Essential Oil into a candle flame is a nice winter activity that fascinates children (and those who remained young).

In the factory, before the juice of citrus fruits is processed, the peel of the fruits is carefully removed and the Essential Oil extracted from the glands contained in the outer layer of the peel. This is the process behind the term “cold pressed”.
