All oils from Ananda Aromatherapy are therapeutic grade, meaning they are produced to the highest quality standards possible. Our essential oils are chosen for their integrity (all chemical constituents important for aromatherapy are intact), ecological 'soundness' (most are organic or wild grown), and wonderful aromas. You may order a sample of any oil before trying larger amounts. Most samples are about .75ml; exotic oils such as Melissa, Rose, Angelica and Jasmine are only a few drops, but certainly enough to enjoy their aroma! | |

Lemongrass
essential oil has been used to support digestion, purification and regeneration of tissues. Research
presented in 'Pytotherapy Research' discussed the powerful anti-fungal effects of Lemongrass oil when topically
applied. Lemongrass oil may help improve circulation, digestion, and eyesight, while combating headaches, infections
and fluid retention. Spiritually, the aroma of Lemongrass Oil is thought to promote psychic awareness and purification.
