Aromatherapy Properties:
(Uses)
Inhaled, it
relaxes the nervous system and acts as a digestive. Also used as an
expectorant, gargle for a sore throat, inhaled for anxiety and depression,
used for a variety of skin problems. It may be used as an inhalation for
respiratory tract infections such as tonsillitis and bronchitis. It is a
valuable antiseptic for the urinary tract and infections and inflammation
such as cystitis. Combined with tea tree it is used as a treatment for cold
sores, chicken pox and shingles. Used in douches and sitz baths, bergamot
oil has proved successful in gonococci infections, leucorrhoea, vaginal
purities and urinary infections; add no more than 2-3 drops to some warm
water. Its antiseptic properties make it ideal for treating wounds, herpes,
acne and oily skin conditions. Bergamot imparts that unusual flavor to Earl
Grey tea. It was and still is an important ingredient in the classic Eau de
Cologne formula. Bergamot is a photo sensitizer (increases the skin reaction
to sunlight and makes it more likely to burn) and the photosensitizing
effect can last for several days. |

History:
The name Bergamot is
derived from the city Bergamo in Lombardy where the oil was first sold. This
tree is native to South East Asia but was introduced to Europe, and
particularly Italy, but is also found in the Ivory Coast, Morocco, Tunisia
and Algeria.
