  Aromatherapy Properties: (Uses) Native Americans have referred to this plant as oak lung, lung moss, lungwort and others. It was used for ailments of the lungs and to heal wounds. Unfortunately, medicinal uses for the Oak Moss absolute have not yet been established. Oakmoss is Fixative, that binds more volatile oils and makes them stay longer. Creates feeling of security and attachment. An absolute is extracted from Moss, as they are considered too delicate to process through steam distillation. The advantage of the absolute is that the complete aroma of this wonderful flower is preserved in the resultant oil.  
     
Blends well with: Angelica Root, Basil, Castoreum, Cedarwood, Celery seed, and Chamomile.

If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage, have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils only under the proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use extreme caution when using oils with children and give children only the gentlest oils at extremely low doses. It is safest to consult a qualified aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children. A skin patch test should be conducted prior to using an oil that you've never used before.
