What a great idea! A patch containing therapeutic essential oils. I love it because essential oils can get messy and are difficult to apply directly to the skin because few know how much should be applied. Worry no more with Natural Patches of Vermont – a pre-measured dose is infused into a small patch that you apply directly to clean, dry skin. There are patches for every need including, stress, coughs, colds, sleep problems, and achy muscles, and romance. There’s even a patch that helps to suppress your appetite. I particularly love the Arnica patches for strained muscles or bruising.
