.      Citrus Essential Oils Sources
The citrus family is one of the largest essential oil producing fruit families in the world. Nearly every citrus has an essential oil that comes from it, the world of aromatherapy would be very poor without this well known family.

One of the new citrus oils used in aromatherapy is Blood Orange oil, rich of antioxidants vapors is supposed to have an uplifting, refreshing quality, its most common use in aromatherapy is against depression; however, it is also used to treat many other disorders, such as acne, colds, cramps, fever, insect bites, rheumatism, infectious diseases and many other things too.

 

Another famous essential citrus oil is that of grapefruit, or citrus paradise. Most often believed to promote clear thinking and light spiritedness, grapefruit oil is often used in treating people with high expectations who often feel let down. It is also used in treating various skin disorders: cellulites, dull skin, and toxin build-up. The rind of the fruit is cold-pressed to produce the purest grapefruit oil. The pale yellow liquid has a medium-to-strong aroma that is quite fresh and pleasing; it smells somewhat akin to lemon oil.

 

Other important citrus oils that we will not look at in depth are lime (citrus aurantifolia), lemon (citrus limon), mandarin oranges (citrus reticulata), and sweet oranges (citrus sinensis). All of these are most commonly used for treating skin disorders
