Actually essential oils are quite safe for pets although there are some oils that can be toxic to them. Many vets use essential oils with horses and other animals. My suggestion is that you consult a reference for animals and essential oils. I use my oils on my dog and I diffuse around her too. It is important to always leave an exit to the room where you will be diffusing oils so that your pet has a means to escape if the oils are too strong for them. Their s nose of smell is much more sensitive than outs so what is fine for us may be overwhelming for them. Purity of oils is key. I’m not familiar with the RMO brand but use instead Young Living oils which have the seed to seal guarantee if purity. Always do your research for the use of oils.

Thanks for sharing, Patricia and we’re really glad to hear you are doing better!

I Kathryn – it depends on the company and the quality of Frankincense, but yes the general answer is to ALWAYS use a carrier oil. Fractionated coconut oil is an all-natural carrier oil that readily absorbs into the skin, making it ideal for topical therapies. It is completely soluble with all essential oils and is colorless, odorless, and will not stain or go rancid. I don’t know how absorbably raw coconut oil is and it also needs to be heated to get into a liquid state in order to use with the oil. For these purposes, we just use fractioned:)

I have started to use this and learn more about its multiple benefits instead of using 3 or more products I find this combination helpful. DoTerra Frankincense contains three varieties (Boswellia carterii, frereana, and sacra) and combat multiple issues that I am facing personally. I find it a small investment in my health and I suffer with anxiety, depression, and arthritis inflammation.

DoTerra is a company that believes in empowerment on a global scale to bring Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade oils to the global market. While I am sure Rocky Mountain Oils or Young Living and other brands to be effective, I prefer DoTerra which is why I became a Wellness Advocate.

Good luck to you on search and discovering which brand is right for you.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It is also a relief knowing that you are fine after using this Holy Grail. I know that frankincense is good of its anti inflammatory factor, but I was amazed that it also stimulates the regeneration of cells. This post was really informative and full of ideas.

Hi Naomi – animals are more sensitive to essential oils than are humans. Please don’t give your animals any oils internally or topically without consulting with your vet first, and be sure to keep them out of your pet’s reach.

That being said, they are fine for you to use and diffuse, even if you have pets!

Hi Midori – NO essential oils are NOT safe for pets.

Please do not diffuse near your pet or administer oils to them! Pets like cats and dogs are very sensitive to EO. I suggest talking to your vet about other options for treatment for your cat – or seeking out a holistic vet!

My question is, is it safe to use on pets? I have a cat with breast cancer. If so, do I also use it the same ways as human, by diffusing and ingesting and how much/often?

Thank you so much!

Hi Nate – we think they would both be great. Sacred frankincense has been studied for its anti-cancer properties. I use both

Thanks guys 🙂

Hi Geri – thanks for asking.

We think the more ways you use frankincense oil, the better.

You can diffuse it using a diffuser like this: http://go.rockymountainoils.com/SHDr (It is important you use an ultrasonic or cold diffuser – you do not want to heat the oil when you diffuse it, as this will damage the oil).

You can also ingest it by putting a drop or two under your tongue or you can try rubbing it on your temples.

Hi Sam – we think it is best to do both (diffuse and ingest the oil.) When you diffuse it, make sure you use a high quality diffuser that doesn’t heat the oil (heating can compromise the integrity of the oil!) like this: http://go.rockymountainoils.com/SHDr or http://go.rockymountainoils.com/SHDp

You can ingest it by putting a drop or two under your tongue or mixing it in water. You can also rub it on your temples.

Hi Linda – I totally get it 🙂 We were introduced to this line of oils by Lori Jo – she wrote this post on tea tree oil and at the bottom she discusses Rocky Mountain Oils and why she prefers their oils: https://healthygut.com/7-uses-of-tea-tree-oil-for-kids-skin-problems/
