English Lavender essential oil is a distilled liquid containing
volatile aroma compounds from the lavender plant. Lavender has been utilized for many years to aid in healing
various conditions ranging from simple cuts, bruises, and burns to
chronic diseases like rheumatism, asthma, and dermatitis.
The primary use and appeal of lavender essential oil
is in the perfume industry due to its fresh, sweet and slightly
fruity floral aroma.
Like most essential oils, this oil is typically mixed
with a base or carrier oil like sweet almond, grapeseed,
jojoba, avocado, etc., except when used in a bath, where
you can just add a few drops to your bath water. Use this
oil for a pleasant aroma or for aromatherapy with an oil
burner or vaporiser. It's often used in aromatherapy to
tackle depression, stress, and fatigue. Always consult a
certified practitioner when using lavender essential oil
as a health treatment or for aromatherapy.
