Wintergreen Essential Oil
You may be aware of the distinctively medicinal, deeply minty and somewhat herbal aroma of AWO’s Wintergreen Essential Oil as it is found in a lot of muscle creams and lotions. This is because the benefits of Wintergreen Oil are primarily known for their anti-arthritic and antiseptic properties. In addition, this essential oil has been seen to be an effective agent for the following:
• Wintergreen Oil is primarily known to be a warming analgesic, effective in treating rheumatic and arthritic pain. In fact, it is commonly used to release muscle spasms, fatigue and tension.
• In saying this, when diluted and used topically it has also been seen to help cool and soothe skin irritation and swelling whilst boosting blood circulation and improving digestion.
• Traditionally used to treat fevers and infections, the benefits of Wintergreen Essential Oil can also be useful to those fighting colds and flus.
• Not to mention, its incredibly crisp and decongestant aroma is known to lift levels of alertness and concentration.
In addition, Wintergreen Essential Oil blends well with Bush Balm Mint, Cypress, Lemongrass, Peppermint, Spearmint and Ylang Ylang essential oils.
