Oil Diffuser FAQs
Many people are curious about essential oil diffusers, but they don't know where to start.
Essential oil diffusers are becoming more and more popular, but there is a lot of confusion about them. Do they work? What do they do? How do I use one?
We've answered all of those questions (and more) in our FAQ section below.
-
An oil diffuser is a device used to disperse essential oils into the air. The oils are usually diluted with water before being put into the diffuser. The diffuser then creates a fine mist that releases the essential oils into the air.
People use oil diffusers for a variety of reasons, including to improve their mood, to help them relax, and to boost their immune system. Essential oils have many benefits, and people believe that by diffusing them into the air, they can reap these benefits.
-
Yes, it is safe to inhale essential oils from a diffuser. As with anything, it's always best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new treatment, but essential oils have been used for centuries for their therapeutic benefits.
The main thing to be aware of when using essential oils is that they are highly concentrated and should not be ingested or applied topically without diluting them first.
-
It depends on the intended use.
Generally speaking, a humidifier is better for large rooms, while a diffuser is better for smaller spaces; though the diffusers on our list are designed for large spaces.
Additionally, evaporative humidifiers work by adding moisture to the air, which can be helpful in dry climates or during winter months when the air is drier. Ultrasonic humidifiers (which many diffusers can double as) generate a fine mist that can be helpful in fighting against colds and other respiratory infections. Aromatherapy diffusers use essential oils to spread fragrance throughout a room, and they come in both ultrasonic and heat.
-
There is no definitive answer to this question, as it comes down to personal preference.
However, while both diffusers and candles release aromas into the air, they each have their own pros and cons.
Candles can create a relaxing atmosphere, but present a fire hazard if not handled or supervised properly; they can also release smoke or soot into the air.
Diffusers typically last longer than candles, and many have auto-off features for safety.
-
Some essential oil combinations that smell good together are: lavender and chamomile, lemon and grapefruit, bergamot and orange, sandalwood and rose, rosemary and lemon.
Each essential oil has a unique scent and flavor that can be enjoyed when used alone or in combination with other oils. When blending oils, it's important to experiment until you find the scents that you like the best. Be sure to use high-quality oils, since low-quality oils may not have the desired scent.
