How to use buchu oil

  • Lack of evidence makes it very difficult to understand the application. Since many plants are referred to as buchu, you have to be careful about the source. The supplier must specify the exact source of the oil.
  • It is always best to use the oil under the guidance of an experienced and effective aromatherapist.
  • Use of title: Any essential oil, if used properly can serve its purpose well. It is up to you to use the oil properly. Therapists do not recommend overuse or prolonged use of buchu oil. Always use buchu oil in very low concentrations. Since Buchu oil is not recommended for domestic workers, apply the oil as prescribed by your doctor or therapist. Also, be careful where you use oil.

How to apply buchu oil to your massage session

  • Apply your favorite body oil when your skin is slightly wet to get the best hydration results. Use 1-2 teaspoons throughout your body, and remember to take a few moments of massage and breathing.
  • I have been rubbing oil on the soles of my feet to relieve stiffness and fatigue. (If you try this method, make sure the oil is absorbed before leaving so that it doesn’t slip!
  • I like to use a bottle of body oil under warm water for 1-2 minutes before rubbing to get a warm, moisturizing experience. Just take a bottle out of the shower or bath to get it ready and warm when you go out. To add an amount of sour cream, wait at least three minutes before drying a towel or dressing. use this time to practice another form of self-care, such as extracting oil or slipping into a natural skin serum, which is attached to your skin type.

It may seem like a good idea to indulge in body fat and cleanse yourself during your bath, but your body and mind will thank you. When I take the time to get used to the massage, I recover from the training very quickly
