Our essential oil blends are developed with the same clinical standards we apply to every RIAP offering. As a Certified Aromatherapy Safety Professional™ (CASP), our founder formulates each blend according to established safety guidelines — including therapeutic dilution ratios, constituent-level safety assessment, and consideration of contraindications for sensitive populations. You're not getting a pretty bottle of fragrance oil. You're getting a thoughtfully constructed botanical tool.

Essential oils are highly concentrated plant extracts, and even beautiful, natural ones require care. Our blends are formulated for general adult use at safe dilution levels. However, we recommend the following precautions:

• Pregnancy & nursing: Consult your healthcare provider before use, as some constituents are contraindicated during pregnancy.

• Children: Essential oils require significantly lower dilution for children. Always consult a professional before use on little ones.

• Medications: Certain essential oil constituents can interact with prescription medications. If you are on a complex medication regimen, check with your provider first.

• Skin sensitivity: Always perform a patch test before full application — dilute in a carrier oil and apply to the inner forearm for 24 hours.

When in doubt, our Wellness Consultation services are here to help you find the right botanical support for your specific situation.

To maintain the integrity and potency of your botanicals, we recommend storing all RIAP products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Our amber glass bottles provide significant UV protection, but excessive heat or light can degrade the delicate volatile oils over time.

By purchasing our provisions, you acknowledge that Rooted Infusions Apothecary & Provisions is not liable for any misuse, mishandling, or improper storage of our products. Every individual is responsible for their own health journey. We provide the tools and traditional context, but the final application of these botanicals is at the user’s discretion.

While our products are crafted with the highest standards of care, botanicals are powerful. RIAP is not responsible for any adverse reactions or sensitivities. We strongly advise a "test dose" (half a serving) for any new elixir. Additionally:

• Consult a Trusted Professional: Always speak with a healthcare provider before starting a new botanical ritual, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, taking prescription medications, or have a pre-existing medical condition.
• External vs. Internal: Ensure you are using the product as directed on the label.
• Keep Out of Reach: All tinctures and concentrated botanicals should be kept out of the reach of children.

We provide a full list of ingredients for every product. It is the customer's responsibility to review these lists for known allergens before purchase. If an unexpected reaction occurs, discontinue use immediately and consult a medical professional.
