SAFETY NOTICE: Due to the methyl salicylate in Wintergreen essential oil, the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA) is requiring that this product be provided with a child-resistant cap. We have updated our packaging to meet the current requirements. We have discontinued offering 240 ml bottles of wintergreen due to the inability to get a child-proof cap for the 240 ml bottles. As with all essential oils, it is important to keep them out of reach of children.

Methods of Use

Compress: Fill a basin with water. (Warm water relaxes and increases circulation. Cool water invigorates and relieves inflammation.) Add 3-5 drops of essential oil and briskly stir. Lay in a washcloth, wring and apply to the area in need for approximately 1-5 minutes. Dip, wring and apply 3 more times.

Inhalation: Put 1-3 drops of essential oil on a tissue and inhale the aroma through your nose. Pause and inhale again.
(Avoid touching your nose with the tissue.)
