Application Methods and Precautions

Essential oils can be applied topically or used aromatically to combat nausea. For topical use, applying 2-3 drops of the oil directly to the abdomen is recommended. This method allows the oil to be absorbed through the skin, providing direct relief to the digestive system. However, it's crucial to dilute certain oils, like peppermint, with a carrier oil to prevent skin sensitivity. A general guideline is to use 1/2 teaspoon of carrier oil, such as fractionated coconut oil, for every 3 drops of essential oil.

Aromatically, adding a few drops of these essential oils to a diffuser can help alleviate nausea. The scent molecules travel directly to the brain's limbic system, providing immediate relief from nausea and inducing a sense of calm.
