There are distinct advantages to buying an essential oil blend, as opposed to a single oil. One is price. For the cost of one bottle, you get the best of several different kinds of oils. This option is perfect for someone just starting to explore what these highly concentrated plant extracts can do for your mind and your body.
The second potential benefit is synergy. Professional aromatherapists believe that various combinations of oils, used together, are more powerful than just one type alone.
Also, we have the advantage of history. Aromatherapy has been used for centuries. Through the years, various recipes have been developed. There is a large body of knowledge concerning which types of oils go best together. Especially if you’re a beginner, purchasing a blend takes away the guesswork. The best-known companies sell time-tested formulas, or they’ve employed professional aromatherapists to do the mixing.
Premixed oil blends are available to address a wide ranging of physical and emotional ailments, or, oftentimes, a combination of both. Here are some popular blends from trusted brands that I use myself.

One of the most common uses for essential oils is to reduce anxiety and stress. Several oils are especially good for this purpose, including lavender, geranium and chamomile, which are found in Aura Cacia Tranquility, along with balsam fir, patchouli and palmarosa. These oils are very strong, so a little goes a long way.

Reviews Fabulous Frannie Oils
The oil shown below is the brand I stocked up one winter. That’s because it’s designed to fight infections. It’s believed this particular blend is derived from a Medieval recipe developed by a group of thieves. They robbed the dead and dying during a deadly plague. These men did not get sick. When they were apprehended, the king demanded to know their secret. In exchange for leniency, they divulged it.
Today, various companies market a similar formula, including Fabulous Frannie. It’s Protect formula, shown below, is available in different sizes. I obtain nearly all of my oils outside of the multilevel marketing channels. This is one of the companies I buy from.
