Description

Our Organic Bay Laurel Essential Oil is distilled from the majestic tree used to crown Greek and Roman heroes. It is a potent, spicy, and camphoraceous oil that commands attention.

While it is excellent for respiratory support, its true power lies in its ability to stimulate and move. It is widely regarded in aromatherapy as a premier tonic for the lymphatic system.

Key Benefits & Uses:

Lymphatic Support (Swollen Glands): This is its most unique and celebrated therapeutic use. Bay Laurel is traditionally used in massage blends to help stimulate a sluggish lymphatic system, supporting the body in managing swollen glands and fluid retention.

Respiratory Antiseptic: With its high eucalyptol content, it is a powerful expectorant and antiseptic. Diffusing it helps to clear the sinuses, open the breath, and fight airborne bacteria during cold and flu season.

Oral & Dental Health: It is a powerful antibacterial oil famously used (in very low dilutions) to help soothe mouth ulcers (canker sores) and support gum health.

Confidence & Courage: Historically, this is the oil of confidence. Its spicy, uplifting aroma is a mental stimulant used to dispel fear, boost concentration, and inspire courage.

Hair & Scalp Tonic: A traditional ingredient in hair tonics to stimulate the scalp and promote healthy growth.

Important Cautions:

This is a potent oil that can be sensitizing. Always dilute heavily (1% max) before applying to the skin.

Avoid during pregnancy.
