## Abstract

This is a neurological essential oil composition employing oils containing sesquiterpene compounds that cross the blood-brain barrier, such as Vetiver, Black Pepper, Ginger, Ylang Ylang, Sandalwood, Patchouli, Cedarwood, Myrrh, Frankincense, or Lavender, offering calming relief from seizures, migraine, anxiety, tremor, PTSD, and other neurological ailments, minus side-effects often experienced with conventional neurotherapeutics. A case study using FDA guidelines was conducted on the composition by the inventor/nutritionist treating these disorders and more with success, including her own seizure disorder. For neurological stimulation to improve cognitive function, the composition recruits oils such as Coffee, Vanilla, Cinnamon Bark, Clove, Dalmatian Sage, Rosemary, Blood Orange, Lemon, Grapefruit, Peppermint, Lime, Clementine, Spearmint or Coconut. The invention is applied directly to the skin and is also present in other topical administrations such as shampoo, conditioner, lotion, face wash, body wash, bath salts, and in aromatherapy administrations such as candles, nasal inhalers and sprays.
