About

For healing any injury to muscle, tendon or ligament, I find German Chamomile to be one of the most powerful oils available, especially in combination with Helichrysum. Its anti-inflammatory and cooling action is a highly effective relief to pain and heat.

German Chamomile is especially great in a bath after a stressful day, to soothe the nervous system and support sleep. It has a calming effect and is nourishing to the skin as well. The oil has a bittersweet, deep aroma and beautiful dark blue color.

German Chamomile is also very effective when used to treat superficial inflammations such as rashes, insect bites, and burns.
