Essential Oil Database

The site is owned by Lisa Barger and is part of the LisaBarger.com family of sites. It is ad-supported. Our authors are Lisa Barger, Petre Francoeur and Marc Lafleur.

Why do we bother telling you this? Because we believe it’s the right thing to do. If you purchase something from a link on this site, we get a very small portion of that sale. That revenue helps offset the cost of running such a large site and allows us to keep this site open to everyone without having to charge a membership fee or have a paid “members-only” section.

But even though we serve ads, we NEVER participate in the extremely common practice of writing phony information articles to “pre-sell” you on a particular brand or a specific product.

Do people really do that? You’d better believe they do. In fact, the vast majority of aromatherapy sites are set up to “warm you up” to buy something. Many even take money to write glowing reviews that they pass off as honest articles. And they almost never tell you.

We think that’s dishonest and wanted you to know that we do things differently here.

This web site is intended to share information about the the history and folk use of aromatherapy—nothing more. Nothing here is intended as medical advice and nothing here is intended to encourage self-diagnosis or self-treatment.

Although we do discuss current research on essential oils we absolutely cannot diagnosis your illness, recommended a particular oil for your medical condition or give you any information that even resembles medical advice.

We appreciate your understanding.

We respect your privacy and will not share any of your information with any 3rd party. (And believe me, we get asked.)

Since we serve 3rd party ads on this site through Google’s AdSense program, they’ve asked us to pass along the following:

• EssentialOilDatabase.com serves ads and some of those ads come from Google.
• Although we don’t collect info about you, some ad services do. You can opt out of having your info collected by going here.
