i believe it is chamomile or lavender, because both are natural relaxants. chamomile makes u sleepy and very relaxed.

I'm not a professional by any stretch, but I would think different ones are used for different purposes. I know Lavender is supposed to be relaxing, for example.

Lavender (lavendula officianalis), because it's one of the most affordable, it has the most diverse range of uses and applications, it is least likely to cause allergic reactions and is one of the few oils that can be applied directly to the skin without dilution.

my therapist always seems to use ging!er or lavender!

Sunflower Oil as a base to dilute the potent essential oil thereby saving cash.

rapeseed lavender or almond i would imagine

Like Jenny B said, different scents are for different purposes.

Lavender is commonly use for relaxation.

I normally find citric scents very invigorating.

I've never seen an official study - not that they are ever 100% accurate. But, I would have to say Lavender is the most popular by far. It is a calming oil and easily added to bath water, heated for aroma, and does wonderful things. I see more people wanting calming than any other. And, if talking oil, lavender is the calming oil. I usually suggest chamomile tea to go with it.

I'm going to guess lavender...that's what I always request during my massages. I love the scent & it's very relaxing!
