Wintergreen Essential Oil smells crisp, fresh, woody and sweet, similar to Birch Oil. Medicinally, it is reputed to increase circulation, enhance metabolic function, calm inflammation, ease pain and soothe the symptoms of colds, flu and infections.
Wintergreen’s clean aroma will help promote an uplifting and stimulating effect on the senses and when used in a room diffuser or mist spray has a very pleasant scent that will mask unwanted odours.
Essential oils should not be applied directly to the skin and are usually mixed with a base or carrier oil like sweet almond, grapeseed, jojoba or avocado. Add a few drops to your bath water, or you can use this oil for a pleasant fragrance in an oil burner or diffuser.
Always consult an authorised practitioner when using essential oil as a health remedy.
