The method of using an aromatherapy diffuser is usually relatively simple. The following are detailed steps and precautions to help you use the diffuser correctly and safely and enjoy the aromatherapy effect brought by essential oils:
Choose a suitable diffuser position
Place the diffuser on a stable and sturdy table or countertop, away from fans, direct air conditioning and strong sunlight to avoid affecting the diffusion effect and equipment safety.
Add water to the specified water level line
Open the diffuser cover and add clean water at room temperature to the water tank, usually purified water or filtered water. Avoid using hard water (tap water with many minerals) to prevent damage to the equipment. The amount of water should not exceed the maximum water level line inside the diffuser.
Drop in appropriate amount of essential oil
Add essential oil according to the amount of water. It is generally recommended to add 2-10 drops of essential oil per 100ml of water, and 5-10 drops are common. If it is the first time to use or there are children present, it is recommended to start with a small amount (2-3 drops) and gradually adjust to the concentration that suits your preferences. You can also mix multiple essential oils to make personalized fragrances.
Close the lid and start the diffuser
Close the lid tightly, connect the power supply, and turn on the diffuser. Many diffusers support timer functions (such as 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours or continuous operation), as well as different spray intensities and light modes, which can be adjusted according to needs.
Enjoy aromatherapy
The diffuser will atomize the essential oil water, releasing a delicate aroma to help relax the body and mind, improve mood or improve air quality. Depending on the characteristics of the selected essential oil, it can achieve a variety of effects such as sleep aid, refreshment, and stress relief.
Regular cleaning and maintenance
It is recommended to empty the water tank after use and keep it dry to avoid essential oil residues clogging the device. The cleaning methods of different diffusers may be different. Please refer to the instructions before use to avoid using inappropriate cleaning agents.
Extra tips:
When using for the first time, it is recommended to start with a small amount of essential oil, observe the fragrance concentration and body reaction, and avoid allergies or discomfort.
The placement should be away from electronic devices to prevent water mist from affecting other devices.
When using, keep the room well ventilated to avoid discomfort caused by too strong fragrance.
In summary, the key to using an aromatherapy essential oil diffuser is to add water and oil according to the instructions, control the amount, choose the placement and time reasonably, and clean the device regularly, so that you can safely and effectively enjoy the aromatherapy experience brought by essential oils.
