Organic rosemary essential oil 10 ml

Latin name: Rosmarinus Officinalis. Plant part used: Flowering tops. Origin: Italy. Extraction method: Steam distillation. Organic rosemary essential oil is steam distilled from the flowers, stems, and leaves of the plant. According to the British Pharmacopoeia, the oil distilled from the flowering tops is superior to that from the stems and leaves, from which almost all commercial oils are extracted. The scent of rosemary essential oil is woody and herbal and is used in aromatherapy to refresh and stimulate the mind. This oil is suitable for treating wounds, burns, colds, flu, fatigue, indigestion, headaches, asthma, bronchitis, gout, rheumatism, liver and gallbladder problems, water retention, and circulatory disorders. For massage, rosemary oil is often mixed with one or two base oils such as almond, apricot kernel, or hazelnut oil. It is beneficial for hair, as it increases blood circulation to the scalp and promotes hair growth. Never use this oil internally, and avoid use if you are pregnant or suffer from high blood pressure or epilepsy. Rosemary was known and used in ancient times. Believed to strengthen memory, it became a symbol of fidelity and was used at weddings, funerals, and other religious ceremonies. A rosemary sprig would be beautifully tied with ribbons and presented to wedding guests as a token of love and fidelity. "Hungary water," made from fresh rosemary sprigs soaked in wine for several days, was brewed for the Queen of Hungary and is said to have cured her of her paralysis.
