The Essentials of Essential Oils:
Introduction

1. Essential Oils Complement a Healthcare Practice. Essential oils have been used by healers throughout many cultures for thousands of years.

Today, essential oils are used by many hospitals, nursing homes and other health care facilities for purposes ranging from general cleaning and air purification to providing emotional support for patients and staff.

They are also used in the office by chiropractors, sports medicine practitioners and massage therapists. And many practitioners incorporate them into patient treatment plans. 

2. As a Healthcare Provider its It's Easy to Start and Grow an Essential Oil Business. Essential oils provide a wealth of physical and emotional benefits. And people love them! This makes it very easy for healthcare providers to build an essential oil business.

If you work in a hospital talk to your administrator or supervisor about using them in waiting areas, treatment rooms and offering them to patients.  And, of course, share them with other health care providers just like you!

If you work in an office, use essential oils as non-toxic air fresheners and cleaners. Incorporate them in your treatment protocols and recommend them to your patients. To see how some chiropractors are using essential oils in their practice click on this link 

3. Your Essential Oils Are Unique.  Essential oils are popular and several companies offer them: You can even find them in grocery stores! But doTERRA occupies a unique niche in the essential oil industry - uncompromising quality. 

While there are many essential oils on the market an estimated 80% of them are adulterated. Even major essential oil companies are adulterating their oils. Adulteration affects both the efficacy - and the safety -  of the oil.

doTERRAs was founded with the commitment to produce the highest quality essential oils possible. To do this they source their oils from around the world – where ever the best growing conditions for the oil-producing plants in question are found. And then they test those oils extensively - for everything from adulteration to molds, bacteria and heavy metals. This is unique in the essential oil industry! 

In addition, doTERRA’s wide variety of essential oils and essential oil products - including skin care lines, cleaning products, and personal hygiene items – ensures that you’ll never run out of great essential oil based products to offer your patients. 

4. Essential Oils Allow You to Create a Passive, Recurring Income. If essential oils just helped you reduce toxins, decrease stress and improve your patients physical and emotional well-being that would be reason enough to use them. 

But essential oils also help you create and grow a passive recurring income: That is, an income you receive month after month – even if you don’t work that month! . There are actually  five different ways to make money with doTERRA. These include...
