The latest trend in the world of "natural" and "organic" personal care products is to add "organic water" to conventional chemicals and then market the item as "all natural" and "organic:' Water in a product might be identified as hydrosols, infusions, juices, or gels. Application of liniments, analgesics, plant hydrosols, and essential oil blends immediately after the cupping will enable the absorption of the product deep into the tissue.
