Is this considered a therapeutic grade essential oil?

Neither the bottle nor the NOW website label it as such, just "Pure & Certified Organic" and "For aromatherapy use."

I think this would be considered therapeutic grade, but the last time I ordered it the smell was slightly like pine rather than authentic lavendul agustafolia. This may have been this batch. If it is for aromatherapy use it should be therapeutic.

Dear Mary 29 - you are misinformed: In the real world, there is no such thing as "therapeutic grade" - this is not an actual term for an actual standard set forth by some reputable body or a consensus therein - it is just a made up marketing term (hence the ABUNDANCE of "therapeutic grade" oils at wildly varying price points on this site). It, like those ridiculous markdown percentages, is meant to distract potential buyers from more important questions.

The therapeutic grade claim is a scam. The best quality you can get and you should look for is 100% pure and organic. You can't really tell by looking at labels so you need to find trusted brands. Now Foods offers great quality essential oils.

It is 100% steam distilled & organic. I have been very happy with mine. I am always sure to buy mine from a reputable seller & haven't had any quality issues. 1 full oz. for a great price!

Now Foods website states that it is for aromatherapy use. I use it in my homemade spray and body bar mosquito repellents. I did not see any information about therapeutic uses.

Yes it is! This oil is very light and has very low friction properties. It is very soothing and calming and also seems to reduce inflammation. I wish I had found it several years ago! Here's a copy of my review: Mature ladies...if you are experiencing dryness in certain areas during certain intimate activities due to hormonal upheaval please give this a try. You and your man will be glad you did! The only small negative that I found was that it has a little bit of an odd odor. Add a few drops of lavender oil to the bottle, shake it up, and it will be perfect. I hope this helps!

To my best knowledge it is considered an herbal. I am using it for blood pressure.

No, however, it is not an oil to be consumed but only a fractionated oil to be used with Aromatherapy or massage oils. Not sure if it needs to be USDA approved for that. It is to be used as a Carrier Oil.

I wouldn't recommend ingesting any Essential Oils as they are not regulated by any pharmaceutical company. I firmly believe in using it for aroma therapy only.

I couldn't find anything on the label or on Amazon's listing page. However, I would say it's not for ingesting. It's a carrier oil for essential oils and a moisturizer for skin and hair. I didn't see anything else in its description. I hope this helps!

These are therapeutic grade oils. Therefore they are meant to be made for a aromatherapy, soap making, for external uses using a carrier oil, etc. I wouldn't consider this food grade as I have not used these as that purpose. You might want to look at Now Foods. Those are food grade oils. Hope this helps.

No. It is not a true essential oil. It is a mixture of oils and essential oils. I don't even know if they are all natural, so there is no way I would send it through a nebulizer.

I'm curious too--the PanAway bottle has a different font and it states "100% Pure Therapeutic-Grade Essential Oil Blend". This bottle does not! Makes me wonder----

I am an aesthetician "skin care technitian" this is a great quality oil you will not regret. Not exactly sure what you are using it for but, it is of good quality.

I don't know what you mean by therapeutic grade. I add it to my cedarwood chips and hangers to maintain the smell which wards off the bugs in my closet. Sorry can't help you with that.

There is no such thing. DoTerra uses that term as a marketing gimmick. They actually trademarked the letter "CPTG®" - certified-pure-therapeutic-grade." - laughable. There is no formal definition of what it takes to make an oil "Therapeutic Grade" & any company that claims that, I would not buy from because they are trying to mislead you.

Our Sweet Almond Oil is not sold as food grade and is only for external use. If you have any other questions please ask! Thanks!

I think that Young Living are a high enough grade to ingest, but I would definitely consult a professional before ingesting oils, especially if you are on any sort of medication. Essential oils acts just like a drug in your system, so you'd take the same precautions with them as with prescription drugs. The good news is that EOs are powerful and work (!!!), the bad news is that ingesting can be harmful if not done right. I use the oils on my skin and in my diffuser like nobody's business. I feel like I can heal almost anything with the right oil as long as it is a high grade oil.
