About
This is an oil I always want to have in my collection! The essential oil is distilled from the flower buds oleoresin, and can be used for bruises, sprains/strains, sore muscles, injuries to the skin and hemorrhoids. It is an excellent addition to German Chamomile and Helichrysum in any injury blend and for rheumatism and arthritis. It also has the unique aspect of being antispasmodic, supporting an analgesic effect and reducing tension. Amazing effects for scars and wound healing. The oil has a deeply nourishing effect, calming inflammation physically and emotionally.
