And, yes \u2013 if you use the RIGHT therapeutic grade essential oils, there are at least five important benefits of putting essential oils here. Just take a look at the article below and find out more about this.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Oils delivered faster through the bottom of your feet<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Here\u2019s what you need to know \u2013 the experts say that the pores are thicker on the sole of the foot, which means that our legs act like straws sucking up the compounds quickly into the bloodstream. So, if you apply essential oils all over the bottom of the foot, the oil can be detected in every cell of the body within 20 minutes! Sounds great, right?<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Did you know that the soles of the feet and the palms of the hand are the only sites on our body without Sebaceous Glands?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>How this works \u2013 well, since Sebum is an oily substance it would actually further \u201cshield\u201d the body from absorption of anything. Since the palms and the soles do not secrete sebum, they are more ready to absorb oil.\u00a0 Note: and remember \u2013 you don\u2019t want to apply oils on \u201csweaty\u201d hands or feet. This means that you should dry them off first so that the EO is not repelled by the water.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Reflexology<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>First of all, you should know that every nerve line in the body ends in the feet.\u00a0 The experts say that each foot has 7,200 nerve endings. Amazing, right? And, you\u2019ll be more amazed when we tell you that in most reflexology systems, the big toe represents the brain and head. The next two toes represent the eyes, and the next two toes represent the ears. The top third of the sole is our chest, the mid third is our stomach and digestive system. No wonder we apply oils to our feet \u2013 our feet represent our entire body!<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>Less Irritation and Sensitivities<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Your feet will thank you for it, because when oils are administered on the bottom of the feet with a lower risk of skin irritation and sensitivities. Why \u2013 well, this is because the skin on the soles of the feet are less sensitive than the skin throughout the rest of the body, allowing us to use even the \u201chotter\u201d oils (oregano, thyme, citrus oils\u2026) here without the need for dilution.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>Bypass the Liver<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Ladies and gentlemen, if you use the \u201cright\u201d foot application, the oils will be bypassing the liver and will not accumulate there.\u00a0 Instead of being processed by the liver, the oils reach the lower bronchial capillaries via the circulator system and the entire organism unprocessed.
