For aromatherapy to be truly therapeutic, the oils must be free of unnatural ingredients. Amrita prides itself in using only pure essential oils that have not been industrially processed or chemically manipulated, which is the case with many essential oils on the market today.

In order to determine the purity of an essential oil, gas chromatography test is introduced.

The gas chromatograph is a machine that analyzes all the different components of an essential oil. When we run a test, we look for chemicals that ought to be there naturally - made by the plant - and we also look for adulterants. Essential oils can be modified in many ways - peroxidized, decolorized, denatured, reconstituted, or mixed with other chemical compounds. Gas chromatography can determine whether the oils contain any of these additives.

Pricing: $150 for non-customers, and $10 for Amrita's wholesale customers.
