Do not want to apply oils on “sweaty” hands or feet. Dry them off first so that the EO is not repelled by the water.
-REFLEXOLOGY!
Every nerve line in the body ends in the feet. According to research, each foot has 7,200 nerve endings.
Did you know that? In most reflexology systems, the big toe represents the brain and head. The next two toes represent the eyes, and the next two toes represent the ears.
The top third of the sole is our chest, the mid third is our stomach and digestive system… it can get very intricate, but is SO cool.
No wonder we apply oils to our feet- our feet represent our entire body!

-Less Irritation and Sensitivities
Also, the safety is high when oils are administered on the bottom of the feet with a lower risk of skin irritation and sensitivities.
The skin on the soles of the feet are less sensitive than the skin throughout the rest of the body, allowing us to use even the “hotter” oils (oregano, thyme, citrus oils…) here without the need for dilution.

-Bypass the Liver
When using the foot application, the oils will be bypassing the liver and will not accumulate there.
