Which model of diffuser should I use?

Diffusion into the atmosphere can be achieved in two ways: by heat (a small amount of essential oil in a bowl of water placed on a radiator or candle) or by micro-diffusion using an electric diffuser. The latter technique is by far the best, as it does not heat the essential oils, which retain 100% of their virtues. As far as possible, avoid using a perfume burner, which heats essential oils and destroys all their precious properties.

Broadcast duration

The duration of the broadcast and the rate adopted depend on the size of the room and the number of people present. However, you can expect 2 to 3 minutes of broadcasting per hour and per person.
It's a good idea to plug the diffuser into a programmable socket to get the most out of it.

Tips for creating a personalized interior ambience:

• 5 to 10 min per hour, or 30 min in the early morning, 30 min in the late afternoon.
• In bedrooms, to deodorize the room or promote sleep and relaxation: 5-10 min on rising and 5-10 min before bedtime.
• In a patient's room, to reduce fever, fatigue and tension, and to eliminate germs. 5 to 10 min. per hour.

Precautions for diffusing essential oils

• Use only 100% pure & natural oils for diffusion.
• Choose essential oils carefully (allergies, contraindications).
• Choose essential oils that are suitable for diffusing into the atmosphere (e.g. Rosewood, Lemon, Lemongrass, Eucalyptus radiata, Scented Geranium, Lavandin, Lavender, Lemongrass, Mandarin, Peppermint, Myrtle, Neroli, Orange, Patchouli, Grapefruit, Petit Grain Bigarade, Scots Pine, Ravintsara, Rosemary, Sandalwood, Siberian Pine, Ylang Ylang).
• Some oils can be irritating to the respiratory mucosa, or even neurotoxic if used pure or over long periods.
• Do not diffuse in the presence of children under 3, pregnant or breastfeeding women, allergic persons or asthmatics.
• Do not broadcast all night in the presence of a sleeping person.
• Position the dispenser in such a way that people do not receive the spray directly on their face or eyes.
• Always keep your diffuser and essential oil bottles out of the reach of children.
• Don't forget your pets, who may also be sensitive to diffusion.
