What is Aromatherapy?

Thousands of years old, the practice of aromatherapy is based on the use of essential oils. Essential oils are extracted from the aromatic essences of certain plants, trees, fruits, flowers, herbs and spices. Each one has its own scent and unique healing properties. When the extracted oils are inhaled or applied to the skin(in a carrier oil), they begin to work immediately on body tissues and then are absorbed through the pores and into the bloodstream to treat specific ailments and restore your natural balance both physically and mentally.

Purple Prairie Botanicals uses high quality, steam distilled medicinal grade essential oils in all our products. 

What are Herbal infusions?
Many of our products contain "herbal infusions".  How do we prepare these natural remedies? All flowers & herbs used are organically grown on site. We pick plant material as close to the waxing(full) moon as possible and dry until the the waning moon. We then cover the herbs in organic olive oil, seal and let the sun draw out the medicinal qualites until ready.
