Geranium Essential Oil is derived from the leaf and stalk of the Pelargonium graveolens,from the Geraneaceae family. The graveolens species has a much rosier smell compared to the odoratissimum species, which has more of an apple scent. The Pelargonium graveolens is the most prized of the Geranium Essential Oils.
There are several hundred species of Pelargonium but only around 5 to 10 produce sufficient quantities and quality of Essential OilGeranium Essential Oil is used extensively by Aromatherapists around the world.
As with many Essential Oils, Geranium Oil dates back to Ancient Egyptian times. The Egyptians used Geranium oil to treat tumours. Some say the success with this may have been linked to the Hormone regulating potential of it.
There are many historical uses for Geranium Essential Oil for both Health and Cosmetic purposes.
Oil Extraction process
Geranium Essential Oil is steam distilled from the leaf and stalk of the Pelargonium graveolens shrub.
Uses as an Essential Oil
Geranium Essential Oil derived from the Pelargonium graveolens species has many uses. Due to its Rose like scent it is often used to substitute or lift Rose Essential Oil. We always recommend you seek advice from a local qualified practitioner before using in any internal application.
- Used in Burners, Geranium Essential Oil provides a relaxing atmosphere in a home or office environment. It can provide relief for stress, anxiety, depression and for giving an overall lift.
- Repellent – Mixed with a good quality organic massage carrier oil, geranium is ideal as an insect repellent.
- There are many uses for Geranium Oil as a skincare remedy. Scalds, eczema, shingles and bruises make the short list of potential patients for Geranium essential oil.
- Hair care – I have heard conversation referencing Geranium Essential Oil to the treatment of Head Lice.
- Geranium Essential Oil also makes an excellent Hard surface household cleaner..
Geranium Essential Oil is a powerful must have addition to any Home Aromatherapy kit. You will also find your local Aromatherapy therapist has Geranium Essential Oil in their Essentials box.
PrecautionsEssential oils have many benefits and can aid in the prevention or healing of many complaints. Every individual is different. Some essential oils can be toxic. Some oils must never be ingested while others require limited exposure to the sun due to phototoxicity. Read the label and ask your supplier if you are in doubt of the safest use for any particular oil. Not just the one in this article.

April 27, 2011 ByAmazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Midnight Moon Oil Warmer (Kitchen)I'm satisfied with the product in all. Its color is exactly what appears to be shown in the photo, but the candle base needs to be a little bit smaller than the usual size. I have the same type of candles as the one shown in the photo, but it seems (even in the photo) not to fit exactly into that part. The amount of water/diffuser is enough to be used with 2 candles in a raw.
Wish I could have used it...,
January 14, 2012 ByAmazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Midnight Moon Oil Warmer (Kitchen)Got this oil burner for my mom for Christmas. Unfortunately, it arrived broken so she was never able to use it. The hook attached to the moon was missing/broken off and therefore she was unable to hang the oil bowl. The bowl also came with paint rubbed off in certain parts. I'm returning it, but considering trying to purchase it again once I get my refund - for some reason I wasn't able to do an exchange, not sure why. Definitely a bummer considering it was a Christmas present.
January 4, 2012 ByAmazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Midnight Moon Oil Warmer (Kitchen)I actually got this for a gift for somebody for Christmas, but when I got it I decided to keep it for myself because it's so cute. It works fine, but the candle doesn't fit in the designated spot very well. The oil holder sits too close to the flame so it burns a little bit and it causes the oil to smoke. It still makes my home smell amazing, and the smoke kind of makes it look more special than other oil warmers. I just would not recommend leaving unattended.

For many hundreds of years, the essential oils of numerous plants have been used to afford relief for a assortment of physiological benefits including relaxation, health and sleep. It wasn’t, however, until the 1960′s that aromatherapy herbs were proved to offer lots of extra benefits.
An mixture of geranium essential oil and peppermint essential oil, heated over either an open flame or in an electric steamer, for example, has been thought to relieve the symptoms of jet lag.
Aromatherapy herbs used to ease physical exhaustion include an essential oil mixture of peppermint, lavender, geranium and chamomile.
The secret is in using top quality essential oils, which are extracted from the herbs using a distillation process. The essential oils can then be used as aromatherapy herbs in many ways to produce benefits. One such way is by heating and allowing the aroma to permeate the air. Oils are placed in oil burners to evaporate into the air with some evaporators having small fans to circulate the aroma or in atomizers to pulse the aroma throughout the air.
Mixing herbs and spices.
Centuries in the making, the essential oils of different aromatherapy herbs mixed with the essential oils of different spices, have been found to have different and profound effects on many people’s physiology.
For example:
Mixing the essential oils of lavender, eucalyptus, rosemary and marjoram can relieve the symptoms of arthritis.
Blending the essential oils of herbs lemongrass, thyme, lavender and peppermint can be used as an insect repellent.
Blending lavender, chamomile and eucalyptus can be used to ease the pain and itching of insect bites.
Anxiety and tensions can be helped with an essential oil blend of cedar wood, sandalwood and patchouli.
Nervous tension can be relieved by a mixture of aromatherapy herbs cardamom, cedar wood, ylang ylang and sweet orange.
For a stress headache, try lavender and clary sage.
Other blends of aromatherapy herbs offer wellness benefits including sweet basil and marjoram to ease the affects of asthma.
Melissa, thyme, lemon and marjoram can be inhaled to help with a cold and fever.
It’s been well documented that the sense of smell can be mood altering; and that too pretty quickly. Many studies have shown that certain smells spark changes in the brain that detour negative anxieties and aromatherapy herb have been found to relieve a variety of them.
Over the many years and after numerous investigations, it has been recorded that aromatherapy herbs have lots of benefits for a great deal of people wanting a more natural way of coping with everyday situations.
