Aromatherapy Properties:
(Uses) Wintergreen is
credited with having therapeutic properties as an antiseptic, a diuretic,
stimulant, emenagogue and anti- rheumatic. It is very useful in many
rheumatic conditions, for gout and stiffness due to old age. It also
revitalizes and gives energy following muscular pains, particularly good for
athletes for instance. Cautions: Wintergreen is considered toxic and if you are pregnant, refrain
from using this oil. Safety in young children, nursing women, or those with
severe liver or kidney disease is not known.

both have been used in traditional folk remedies.

General Safety Information: Do not take any oils
internally without consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner.
Do not apply undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated
essences onto the skin. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage,
have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils only under the
proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use extreme
caution when using oils with children and give children only the gentlest

aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children. A skin patch test
should be conducted prior to using an oil that you've never used before.
