Directions for Use - In Steam Vaporizer
In vaporizer cup: Pour VapoSteam into vaporizer cup. All the natural essential oils are relased in the vapours. Only the slow release base is left in the vaporizer cup.
Empty residue and wipe clean with a cotton cloth or paper tissue.
In water: Use 2.5 mL (1/2 a teaspoon) for each litre of water. Pour into water container and add water to level required. Use fresh VapoSteam each time vaporizer is operated.
Safer, Long Lasting Vapours
Vicks VapoSteam is safer because it mixes readily in water and is highly water dispersible. It can be added directly to the water of any steam vaporiser so that there is no need to use the vaporizer cup. This reduces the possibility of children accessing VapoSteam, reducing the risk of accidental poisoning. Steam therapy is non-invasive so can be used as often as required without causing side effects such as drowsiness.
As Vicks VapoSteam mixes in water, the effect of the essential oils is prolonged and enhanced, giving stronger, longer lasting vapours.
Slow Release Base
Ensures VapoSteam vaporises slowly and evenly for maximum relief over a long period.
