For full-body massage on healthy adults, the standard dilution ratio for essential oils is 2%.

This means:

  • Add 2 milliliters of essential oil to every 100 milliliters of carrier oil (such as sweet almond oil or jojoba oil).
  • Common range: 1% to 3%, with 2% being suitable for most healthy adults.
