  1. Can essential oils be applied directly to the skin?

Yes. It is not recommended that pure 100% essential oil be applied directly to the skin, however using the hypoallergenic adhesive patch directly on the skin is recommended. The heat from the body allows more vapors to be released, providing more smell to travel to the patient. 

  1. Can essential oils be used in hospitals and clinical settings? 

Yes. Healthcare is a perfect setting to apply essential oils for a non-pharmaceutical option in assisting in healing or comfort. Here are the departments that would best benefit from the Comfort Patch essential oil by Bioesse.

A calmer mother often contributes to a more peaceful experience for the baby while still in the womb. Aromatherapy may also continue to be used after birth if there were complications. It provides healing to both mother and child by being able to calm the nervous system. 

Emergency Department: Anxious waiting-room patients who need some type of mental paid relief while they wait to be seen. 

Senior Living Communities, Senior Living Wellness products such as Aromatherapy patches can assist in calmness to seniors that are transitioning to a new place and may have anxiety living in an unfamiliar place. 

Dementia Care: Memory loss can be challenging for individuals and their caregivers.That is why providing a memory care anxiety intervention patch can greatly reduce the patient stress, as well as the caregivers. While cognitive abilities may decline over time, sensory experiences such as smell often remain meaningful and can evoke feelings of comfort and familiarity. Lavender aromatherapy patches are a very affordable solution in helping reduce anxiety, promote relaxation, and create a greater sense of comfort for individuals living with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. By supporting a soothing environment, clinical aromatherapy can be a simple, non-invasive addition to person-centered care.

  1. Where to apply the essential oil patch?

We recommend applying the comfort patch essential oil directly on the gown, clothing or skin in the center of the chest for most benefit. It can also be applied on the shoulder or back. If the patches are going to be applied to a child or infant, discretion needs to be used on a case per case basis. We do not recommend applying the patch directly on a newborn. It can be placed near the newborn or in the incubator side wall so the newborn seeks the benefits of the vapors, without touching the essential oil patch.
