Eucalyptus Oils

Of the many different types of eucalyptus oils, the two that are recommended for steam rooms are radiata and globulus. While they have many of the same supportive properties, radiata is less irritating on the skin and can be used on children. Globolus can cause possible skin irritation, but it is the only variety that can be taken internally for dietary use. We recommend combining essential oils with a quality carrier oil before applying directly to skin.
