Tangerine oil

[skateboardfool]

I recently bought a 10 ml bottle of Tangerine oil (cITRUS RETICULATA ). I was hoping someone might be able to tell me if there are any contra- indications for this oil or any individual symptoms it would be particularly good for. I work with women mainly and particulaly women through pregnancy so i am aware of the need to be caustious. I have only recently started working with oils as i have only just advanced my skills with the vtct advanced aroma qualfication. The course wasn't great so i want to be really clear on what is safe and what isn't before i even start using the oils for others.[sm=wave.gif]

Hi Sully

Tangerine has very similar properties to mandarin - it has no contra-indications and is often used to help prevent stretch marks during pregnancy. It also can help with fluid retention and stimulating the circulation. I think the oil is wonderful on the nervous system helping alleviate stress and tension as it is very soothing.

Hope this helps
Love and light

I was taught the same and have used it in pregnancy massage, it is absolutely lovely and nice on children too!

Thank you both so much for responding. This site is so much better than going to college, the info is there at hand really quickly. I am going to post another question but i will post it here too. What oils are particularly good for people with low blood sugar/ high blood sugar? I would also like to know what oils are good for diabetes. I don't work with anyone with this prob but i recently did an assesment at college and the lady i treated had been on the atkins diet. She had really low energy and loss of concentration, she was unable to sleep properly and felt very latheragic. I was told this would be due to low blood sugar but i had no info at hand on oils that would be good for this prob. [sm=1syellow1.gif] thanks again
