A Glade Plug-In Scented Oil is not Aromatherapy

A Glade Plug-In Scented Oil is not Aromatherapy.  A more appropriate label would be “Phthalate-therapy”.   But there’s really nothing therapeutic about a Glade Plug-in or any other synthetic scented personal product.  So I think I’ll term it  “phthalate-permeaters”.  They are everywhere… in the environment, in humans and in our pets.  They are used to extend the fragrance in scented products as well facilitate the absorption of lotions into the skin. This is just one way  the 8.1 billion kilograms of phthalates produced annually, are used in our modern world.

Phthalates, like many other synthetic petro-chemicals, are disruptive to our endocrine system, are linked to breast and prostate cancer, ADHD in children and more.

Safe alternatives can be found in nature in the form of essential oils that are genuine and authentic, steam distilled and unadulterated.  They are derived from plants and are very healing on a physical, emotional and spiritual level.

So toss your Glade Plug-in and start diffusing essential oils.  They smell better, are safe, and have numerous health properties. The next time you’re in the clinic, ask about the diffusers we use and chat with our in-house resident expert on the safe use of essential oils.
