They are natural aromatic compounds found in seeds, bark, stems, roots, flowers and other parts of plants. They are immediately absorbed by the skin.

They have been used throughout history in many cultures for medicinal and therapeutic benefits. This is also why there is a concern here with the continuous development of new Essential Oils, exploring new products in a sustainable and balanced way. Pure Essential Oils - and their blends - emanate from an ancient culture. They are vital aromatic substances obtained by distillation or compression processes, found in flowers, herbs, fruits and spices, with application in cooking and use in the production of food and beverages, cosmetics and as herbal medicine.

DōTERRA has a great concern for its oils to be 100% pure and natural, which is why its aromatic compounds are carefully distilled from plants that were patiently harvested at the perfect time by experienced producers from around the world for their composition and effectiveness ideals of the extract.
Each dōTERRA essential oil is also carefully tested using the strict CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade ® quality protocol. Experienced users of essential oils will immediately recognize the superior quality standard for naturally safe and purely effective therapeutic-grade dōTERRA essential oils, thus containing no artificial ingredients, and free from pesticides or other chemical residues.

While there is a science for distilling essential oils, it is also an art. Distillers not only rely on years of experience, but they also employ modern technology and techniques. DōTERRA Essential Oils are subjected to mass spectrometry and rigorous tests, gas chromatography, to guarantee a 100% pure composition.

DōTERRA represents the safest and most beneficial Essential Oils available today.
