For a potent concentrate in times of need dilute 3-5% in another essential oil like Frankincense, Lavender, or Tea Tree and apply this solution neat.

Contraindications

French aromatherapy literature advises against long-term use; best to use in short spurts.
This potent and pure distillation is from the esteemed vulgare species, which has a balance of key constituents with a high level of carvacrol. With tonic thymol levels and an herbaceous, fresh fragrance, this oil is an herbal-helper.
