Botanical Name: Picea abies Botanical Family: Pinaceae
· Extraction Method: Steam Distillation
· Part Used: Needles and Twigs
· Aroma Note: Middle
When we speak of "Regular Spruce" or "Common Spruce," we are usually referring to the Norway Spruce. This is the classic, iconic evergreen often chosen as the traditional Christmas tree. While Black Spruce is earthy and "jammy," and White Spruce is crisp and "sparkling," Norway Spruce sits right in the middle. It has a rich, resinous, balsamic aroma that smells like a deep, sun-drenched forest. It is high in bornyl acetate, a compound known for its deeply calming and anti-inflammatory properties. Historically, its resin (Burgundy pitch) was used in plasters for various aches and pains.
Antiseptic, Antitussive, Anti-inflammatory, Antispasmodic, Deodorant, Diaphoretic, Expectorant, Stimulant (mild), Tonic.
· Respiratory: Highly effective for bronchial infections and dry coughs. It acts as a gentle expectorant, helping to move mucus out of the system while calming the "tickle" in the throat.
· Muscular/Joints: Excellent for rheumatism and muscular fatigue. It helps to increase local blood flow, warming up cold joints and easing the "heavy" feeling in muscles after physical exertion.
· Endocrine System: Like its cousins, it provides adrenal support. It is a fantastic oil for those suffering from "morning fatigue" or those who find it difficult to get going in the early hours.
· Immune System: It is a powerful airborne antiseptic. Diffusing it during the winter helps to "scrub" the air of pathogens.
Norway Spruce is the "Oil of Structure and Support." It provides a sense of "verticality"—helping you stand tall when you feel like collapsing under pressure. It is deeply stabilizing for the nervous system. If you are feeling scattered, ungrounded, or emotionally "weak-kneed," Spruce provides the backbone and steady endurance needed to face your responsibilities with a calm, quiet confidence.
1. The "Morning Jumpstart" Inhalation: Before getting out of bed, place 1 drop of Spruce on a tissue and inhale. It gently nudges the adrenal glands to help you wake up naturally and with more energy.
2. The "Winter Wellness" Vapor Rub: Mix 3 drops of Spruce and 2 drops of Cedarwood into a tablespoon of coconut oil. Rub onto the chest and soles of the feet before sleep to support the respiratory system.
3. Nature’s Deodorant: Add 2 drops to a small amount of witch hazel or carrier oil for a fresh, woody underarm scent that naturally fights bacteria.
The "Sturdy Soul" Blend - To find balance and strength during transitions or periods of high demand
· 4 drops Spruce (Norway)
· 3 drops Frankincense
· 2 drops Grapefruit
Benzoin, Cedarwood, Clary Sage, Eucalyptus, Frankincense, Lavender, Lemon, Pine, and Rosemary.
Generally non-toxic and non-sensitizing. However, it can cause skin irritation if the oil has oxidized. Always keep the cap tight and store in a cool place. For topical use, dilute to 2% or less. Use with caution on children and avoid during the first trimester of pregnancy.
Available sizes: 7ml, 13ml
