100% Therapeutic Grade Essential Oil - Lavender (French)
Botanical Name: Lavandula angustifolia Botanical Family: Lamiaceae (Labiatae)
Quick Facts
Extraction Method: Steam Distillation
Part Used: Flowering Tops
Country of Origin: France
Aroma Note: Middle
The Profile
Lavender is perhaps the most famous and versatile essential oil in existence. While there are many varieties, French Lavender (often grown in the high altitudes of Provence) is prized for its high ester content, which gives it a particularly sweet, floral, and refined aroma compared to the more medicinal-smelling Spike Lavender. Its name comes from the Latin lavare, meaning "to wash," referring to its ancient use in Roman baths to purify both the body and the spirit.
Therapeutic Actions
Analgesic, Anticonvulsant, Antidepressant, Antiphlogistic, Antiseptic, Antispasmodic, Antiviral, Bactericidal, Carminative, Cicatrizant, Cordial, Cytophylactic, Decongestant, Deodorant, Diuretic, Emmenagogue, Hypotensive, Nervine, Sedative, Sudorific, Vulnerary.
Usage & Benefits
Skin: Abscesses, acne, allergies, athlete’s foot, bruises, burns, dermatitis, eczema, inflammations, insect bites, psoriasis, ringworm, scabies, sores, spots, stings, and wounds. It is the "First Aid" oil of choice.
Respiratory: Asthma, bronchitis, catarrh, halitosis, laryngitis, throat infections, and whooping cough.
Digestive: Abdominal cramps, colic, dyspepsia, flatulence, and nausea.
Genito-Urinary: Amenorrhea, cystitis, dysmenorrhea (painful periods), and leucorrhea.
Circulatory/Muscular: Lumbago, muscular aches and pains, rheumatism, and sprains.
Nervous System: Depression, headache, hypertension, insomnia, migraine, nervous tension, and stress-related conditions.
Emotional Benefit
Lavender is the "Oil of Communication." It calms the insecurities that are felt when one fears showing their true self. It assists in releasing the tension and constriction that comes from withheld expression. By cooling the "fire" of anxiety, it allows for open, honest communication and deep emotional peace.
The "At Home" Remedies
1. The "Burns & Bites" Rescue: Lavender is one of the few oils that can be used "neat" (undiluted) in emergencies. Apply 1 drop directly to a minor burn or insect sting to provide immediate cooling relief and prevent blistering.
2. Deep Sleep Pillow Mist: Mix 10 drops with 50ml of water in a spray bottle. Mist your pillow and linens 10 minutes before bed to signal to your nervous system that it is time to rest.
3. Stress-Relief Temple Rub: Mix 1 drop with a tiny amount of carrier oil and massage into the temples and the back of the neck at the first sign of a tension headache.
