Hi guys, I decided to post this because in the last month I have done numerous research on essential oils and my mother is a professional with Aromatherapy , she suggested I should not use oils which are not certified organic. I read the book Aromatherapy for parrots and it was not that good, honestly after many books I read on Aromatherapy, it was cheap and it was basically paid by Young Living Essential Oils. Although I did find some of it useful, such as not to use any low grade oil around birds, which makes sense, the rest was kind of not that great. I decided to go for do Terra but then after I made my order I canceled it after I did more research finding that do Terra like Young Living Essential Oils is not organic at all. Also Do Terra claims that they have their own standard for being therapeutic so this means nothing. Those oils are probably ok, but the fact that they are not organic and they make up their own standards with the little R mark , its A LOT of marketing and I think personally , no one should use non organic oils around birds, because of pesticides. I found another brand which is not distiled in an industrial way, its all on their website, it has both non organic and organic pure oils , so I obviously took the organic oil and they guarantee no additive, chemicals , alcohol or anything but pure oils . I am sure there is some other companies like that. I think people should go organic because Young Living EO and do Terra are great marketers and I do not trust anyone who makes up their own standards which are not even approved with the governmental bodies on their qualities!!
