Staying healthy begins with staying safe! Aromatherapy Guild makes integrative, alternative and complementary medicine products that address a wide range of health and wellness issues. Each of our products has its own set of directions and ingredients, and in some cases, its own additional cautions and warnings. Please refer to the labeling and webpage for the specific product you are using as well as this general safety guidline.

Here are some basic things to consider when using any of our products.

The information provided here should never be considered a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment for specific medical conditions. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health care provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.

All of the ingredients in our products are 100% naturally sourced and are “generally regarded as safe” (GRAS) as defined by the FDA. That does not mean they are completely harmless if used incorrectly or in ways other than what is stated in the products’ directions. Common sense must apply in their usage. There’s a lot of misinformation about essential oils and alternative medicine from many sources. Just because you read something in a blog doesn’t mean it’s true! The same is true for something you may have read in print, seen in a TV ad or heard in a sales pitch from a network marketer. Sometimes it is difficult to know who to believe!

That’s why Aromatherapy Guild is committed to research and testing to create true aromatherapy products that really work. Use our products according to their directions, and you can trust they will do what we say, safely. All our formulas are created according to the safety standards published by the International Fragrance Association (IFRA). The IFRA Standards set a higher level of safety standards for topical fragrance ingredients than any country’s laws and regulations.

Under no circumstances will Aromatherapy Guild, its owners, employees or related companies be held liable for the use of our products in ways other than described in its labeling. And for pete’s sake, no matter what anyone tells you, don’t drink essential oils! Not even a little bit once in a while!!

Some of our products contain FDA recognized over-the-counter active ingredients. Use only as directed. Only these specific active ingredients are considered by the FDA to be “generally regarded as safe and effective” (GRASE). This does not constitute an endorsement or approval of the FDA. Claims of effectiveness for these active ingredients are limited to the specific indications found on the products’ labeling.

Statements on this website have not been evaluated by the FDA. Except where explicitly stated on labeling as “Drug Facts,” Aromatherapy Guild products and their accompanying information are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, mitigate or prevent any disease. Never disregard medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on our site (or any website!).
