Is it safe to use for Massage therapy? Saw on one of the reviews that it may burn the body

Anytime you use essential oils on the body you should put them in a carrier oil. I am a Massage Therapist and do use this on my clients.

You may want to dilute, but I spray it directly on my pillow and never felt burning against my skin. Potent, relaxing and addictive.

If you are asking can you massage yourself with it, yes. Though the companies smaller version would be better if self-message will be your mainstay --- it is heavy. I lay it on the bed and kinda roll my back up to it - seems to work ok. Far more relaxing though for my wife to work on my back and hamstrings. hope this helps? bill

I have a very sensitive skin. It caused me irritation and it gives a burning sensation unless you dilute it with water as indicated. Good for hair, not so good for the skin.

Yes it is true. I bought it and it burnt my skin. You need to get it from a repeatable beauty salon like medi spa who get it straight from the company. It's not worth risking it from anywhere else.

This can be used to massage when it used with a carrier oil. Please check with aromatherapy sites for concentration of number of drops to carrier oil or check into aromatherapy book.

The bottle says that it is for aromatherapy use, but doesn't say not to ingest it so I am not sure. I know there are recipes out there using essential oils and it's probably ok to use. Maybe you should check out NOW website or call their customer service to get their feedback.

yes, the water is only the temperature that you put into it. It does not heat up itself so there is no chance of burning. Feels great, nice foot massage. Would be great for a kid or adult.

I've used it on my back if I ever need to and I haven't experienced any negative effects, but because of its strong nature as a soap, probably best to avoid sensitive places. Honestly couldn't tell you too much beyond that.

Usually, when you get a massage, you will be sore because the massage release the toxins into your body so you can expunge them, and often this will make you sore before you feel better. That being said, I have never had a problem with it before, but everyone is different. I would adjust how you are using it and if it doesn't help I would see a doctor, or return the item.

My mom uses it, and she has no complaints of burning. she says it works fantastically, and she sees improvement in 1 week. I'm no expert, but if there are no other issues other than the burning which goes away after the moisturizer and you do see improvements then consider to keep using it.

I use this camp heat and I'm chemist. As an user, I don't know what kind of liquid is inside. Anyway, nobody can guarantee that nothing harmful is evolved during burning process. That's why I wouldn't recommend to roast marshmallows using this heat as well as any other open flame. At the same time I cannot state that it is 100% harmful. Everything above is just my private opinion.

Actually, I would say no, it seems like it takes forever to work, the only thing I can say that is true about the product, is that it really does burn and have a hot warming sensation feeling after u have rubbed it in...it makes my skin itchy on my stomach, and I am small...I hope that this answer helped u...

You could use it on your arm but it's not that effective. I just tried it and my arm is thin so it doesn't do anything therapeutic until the two "fingers" are almost together. I would probably not recommend it for arm massage.

you could use it as a regular soap bar, or you could dilute the soap with water into a bottle and foam the soapy water with your hands. It doesnt burn your face. I never used it as an all over body soap, so I have no idea if it will burn in other area of the body.

I tried it on my neck and tried to position the pads where my acupuncturist puts the electric pins into my neck. It resulted in a very unpleasant feeling in my neck and throat. So I'm saying do not use it on your neck. I took one for the team and can tell you that my body sent me a strong signal to stop the treatment as soon as I started.

You can get burns and blisters, especially in the first therapy be careful. In subsequent therapies is always better, because the skin gets used and less susceptible
