Using Amber
Pure, natural Baltic Amber contains about 8% succinic acid that is released to the air when amber is burned. Succinic acid is the active ingredient in Pure Natural Baltic amber.
The amber does not have to be burned to release its health benefits. It just has to be heated.
It is best to use amber chips because they have a large surface area and release more healthy vapors per hour than larger pieces. Information about Amber Chips is here. Natural Asthma Cures
You can also use amber powder or amber oil.
But amber oil is better used to rub on ones skin rather than to burn it. It is best to either use the powder or chips.
If you are interested in trying amber in your aromatherapy program, all that you need are some amber chips and an aromatherapy dispenser. The powders and oils are fine, but the lowest cost way is to use the amber chips. That is the way it has traditionally been done in Europe. There is no need to depart from tradition.
