Liquid coconut oil is used as the carrier oil because it promotes the absorption of other oils and provides antiseptic and disinfectant properties.

According to drug delivery research by the National Institutes of Health, because the colon is highly absorptive, suppositories have several advantages over other delivery methods, including increasing bioavailability to absorbable tissue, bypassing first pass metabolism, the ability to deliver higher doses of drug or therapeutic essential oils, and avoidance of irritation to the gastric mucosa. Furthermore, suppositories can deliver treatments and drugs to produce both local and systemic impact.

1. In a rounded 21-cube suppository tray, fill each cube of the tray 1/3 to 1/2 full of coconut oil. (At cooler temperatures, coconut oil is solid, so you may need to first set your coconut oil in hot water to melt it.)
2. After you’ve filled each cube, put the tray in the freezer for 1 to 2 hours.
3. Remove the suppository tray from the freezer. Carefully dispense your essential oil drops onto the top of the frozen coconut oil in each cube. The amount of essential oil needed depends on which oils or oil blends you are using and what issue you are working with in the body. See our suppository recipes for recommended amounts of essential oils. Generally, we recommend 2 to 3 drops per essential oil. Sometimes a single suppository might have up to 8 different oils in its mixture. In this case, you would use a total of 6 to 10 drops of the essential oils.
4. Once the essential oil is dispensed onto the top of the frozen coconut oil, fill up the rest of each cube with more coconut oil.
5. Put the tray back into the freezer, and in a couple of hours you will be ready to use your first therapeutic suppository!

NOTE: You don’t need to make only one type of essential oil rectal suppository per tray. Rather, you can make a variety, as essential oils are best used in rotation. In other words, alternate different oils on different days. For example, one day you might use frankincense and orange, and another day you might use OHN’s Candida Essential Oil Blend, which contains lavender, bergamot, lemongrass, and eucalyptus globulus.
