Aroma Pets

 Your Aromatic Pharmacy

Starting your aromatic collection can seem daunting and expensive at first. But it doesn't have to be. I suggest you start with 5 to 10 essential oils. 3 or 4 hydrosols, and a couple of base oils. But you could start with a few as 5 essential oils and 1 carrier oil. It depends on your pocket book and your animal family and what they need. 

One way to start your collection is to buy the few essential oils or hydrosols you think your dog needs most. Then buy more as you need them, slowly building your collection, getting to know each item through hand-on experience and visible results.

Here is a list of aromatics that should cover most common eventualities. You can buy them via our web site Sanctumrapheal.uk or from your favourite supplier.
