Premium Organics

Why choose natural, organic, filtered only oil
For your bodywork, massage work or for your skin?

Simply because they work on specific problems as mother nature intended. Premium Organics are oils that are cold pressed processed, natural, organic, filtered only oil. We pride ourselves on using and selling only oils that contain no chemicals and are a fully rich phytol meaning it is the whole plant and has all the natural vitamins and minerals intact. Once and oil is heated it becomes "dead oil" with no nutritional value.
The oil that is in your grocery store or sold in almost all cosmetics and massage oils are the "dead oils" full of trans fatty acids and in many cases carcinogens and toxins. The wrong kind of oil you want to eat or put on your skin. They purposely process this so it can have a longer shelf life. Cold pressed oils have a great smell and a vivid color because they are pure.

Our oils are "living food" for your organs, body and skin. The only preservative we use is Vitamin E or Hawaiian Kukui nut. These oils are premium quality and not easily obtained, we endlessly search the world over for suppliers who meet our standards, and we are thankful for people still committed to pure quality oils, and we can make use of these wonderful natural body oil food, created by nature and gifted to us by our Creator.

Our oils contain all the essential fatty acids your body needs to stay in optimal health. We cannot get these essential fatty acids naturally from our body, our bodies do not make them, they are only in certain nuts, fish, vegetables, and grains. It works on your skin because the nutrients are intact! Our pure carrier oils like Almond, Apricot, Hemp and Sunflower are the absolutely best oil you can put on your skin and your clients! Remember you as the practitioner using the oil all day, receive either the chemicals or the nutrients by what you choose the use. Choose your oil wisely.

Listed below is a few of the qualities of some of the oils we carry.
