About
Coriander oil is known to be refreshing and uplifting for the mind. It can help reduce mental fatigue—especially when blended with other uplifting oils such as Orange and Rosemary. Coriander has been used for headaches, muscle tension and exhaustion. Coriander is warming and great for reducing pain from rheumatism, arthritis and muscle spasms.
The aroma of Coriander essential oil is just like the fresh cilantro herb, bright, lemony, and vibrant. It is beautiful when added to a massage oil, bath or natural perfume. We have blended it with Bergamot and Balsam fir to create a wonderful oil for muscle pain and stiffness.
