Safety Considerations 

Please remember that ‘natural’ does not always mean safe. Plant essential oils and herbs are extremely strong and should be treated with the greatest respect around people, animals and our environment. Please keep products stored securely well out of the reach of curious children and animals. Essential oil bottles are small and could easily be swallowed whole by a large animal.

Please consult a holistic medical practitioner or a veterinary practitioner if you need any diagnosis or advice. 

Care should be taken with any plastic bags or plastic packaging that it cannot cause accidental suffocation. 

Note all our essential oils are supplied in bottles, which have integral drop dispensers. Please do not remove these as this discourages a child or animal drinking a whole bottle by accident.

Great care should be used with vulnerable people and animals as in the very ill, elderly, very young, or pregnant. Consideration should be given to any illness or condition where medication is being taken, first consult a medical or veterinary practitioner.  If you are using any herbal or essential oils you should make anyone giving you treatment aware of this.

We would like to point out that cats lack an enzyme in their liver, which means that they lack the pathways to breakdown essential oils easily. Cats particularly, people and animals generally should never be forced to stay in a closed room where aromatic or chemical compounds are being used, e.g. essential oils in a burner. Aromatic substances should be used with great care and knowledge when being added to people or animal products. 

Please note that dark colored oils such as the blue oils Yarrow and German Chamomile can stain clothes and other materials.

Plant products are not suitable replacements for drugs to be used to gain advantage in competition.  Many drugs are derived from plants.  Many plants do contain the components that are tested for these days in competition.  The list of components that are tested for are continuously being updated and the testing is becoming more and more sophisticated.  We suggest that plant products should be treated with the same respect as drugs with regards to their use if you or your animal are participating in performance competition.
