Anyone have a book out there that may help? Dory it's either a synthetic, or a blend of several oils...benzoin, peru balsam, etc. strong sensitizer, unfortunately. Know of one soap supplier who sells it with her eos with the frank admission that she has no idea what it is. whether you choose to put 'unknown quantities' in your products is, of course, a personal decision.

The Amber that is sold as an essential oil, that smells sweet and rich and resinous (the way Cat's blend will!) is NOT an essential oil, but a blend of other oils...mostly resins. there is a " liquidamber orientalis " but folks it does not smell like the 'Amber Oil' you are discussing...honest. one thing to remember when playing with that amber blend...several of the components are STRONG sensitizers. Be very very cautious about it's use on the skin... it should NEVER be used on broken or irritated skin, or you can be setting yourself up for lifelong problems with contact dermatitis. It's a lovely, yummy blend.... but I would only use it in an aroma lamp, not as a perfume. Your source for superb Essential Oils, Aromatherapy Accessories, Information, Books and more!

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 Hi Amber, My son is 5 months old and also has Scoliosis. He was Diagnosed at 2 months and had a 32 degree curve at that time. Since then he has progressed to 50 degrees. is right about the braces, you should consider a cast. I am in the process of getting in a cast. We have never had a brace and I have not heard anything good about them in the correction of Severe Infantile Scoliosis. Please feel free to call me also. My # is 949-305- 8865. I am in California.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2004 Report Share Posted January 8, 2004 Hi Zane is doing okay he is sitting up and crawling now, I have to be much more aware of what is going on with him now that he is into everything. I also had to invest in some gates for when I put him on the floor to be mobile... the documentry is going okay... i am having camera problems, as in i need a new one lol... soon enough though.. i think my camera is as old as i am... time to move into the 21st century. After the new camera things will be better. I did some follow ups yesterday and I only had the option of leaving a message and they have not called back yet. I still have the appointment for Jan 14th at Shriners for Zane. So, we will see. =) I would like to help you if you need it. -Amber- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 I think Amber is in Starkville, Mississippi, just a coupla hours west of Mel- sorta closer to the Alabama border than to my Louisiana border.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 Hey Everyone, I got an email from Amber yesterday and she is doing Okay. Zane is doing really well and I think she said his curve is down to 22 degrees, even though his RVA is still high. She is just going to see what happens and hopefully his curve will stay the same or get smaller. He has never progressed even with a high RVA. She is seperated from Zane's Dad and is having a hard time with that. I told her that we missed our " spunky " one. Crista Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I have used several kinds of amber in preparing both perfumes and spirit varnishes for painting, including the Baltic/fossil variety of amber, which is commonly dissolved in turpentine. Fossil amber has a strong, acrid smell to it when pulverized, and most particularly when it is warm. What sort of resin are you using? You may find that warming your mixture will resolve the cloudiness of your solution. Setting the container in warm water may suffice, but the alcohol will fly. Luting the neck and cap of your bottle with a piece of cloth dipped in some eggwhite and flour, which is then allowed to dry, will prevent the untimely evaporation of your spirits.
