Lavender,
lavendula
augustifolia,
Belgium
Lavender (lavendula
augustifolia)
– Of all the
essential
oils,
lavender
seems to be
the most
beloved,
widely used,
versatile
and all
encompassing.
The oil is a
very pale
yellow-gold
color, with
a smooth,
medium
texture.
Lavender may
be applied
directly to
the skin
without adding
a carrier
oil. It
creates a
wonderful
synergy with
other oils,
which
enhances
effectiveness
and lends a
very
soothing
quality when
applied.
Typical
medicinal
uses
include:
healing
burns,
relieving
headaches,
general pain
relief,
insomnia,
mildly
sedating,
reducing
blood
pressure,
supporting
healthy
digestion,
restoring
respiratory
health, and
balancing
the central
nervous
system.
There are
several
botanical
varieties of
Lavender.
For the best
therapeutic
action, we
at
use only
lavendula
augustifolia.
Although
other
lavenders
smell very
nice, they
do not have
the same
chemical
makeup, and
do not
deliver the
same
physiological
effects.
