This versatile essential oil is useful for such things as acne, athlete's foot, insect repellent, sprains/strains, arthritis, colds, flu, minor stomach upsets.... You get the picture. It may help combat fatigue & depression as well.
Used in high concentrations, it will numb nerves and is thus a good emergency treatment for toothache, but be careful to apply it to the tooth and not the surrounding tissue.
We love it combined with cinnamon & ginger for a lovely spicy treat!
Use less than 1% in your blends for skin applications.
