Aromatherapy Properties:
(Uses)
This Oil is the most popular
type of lavender Essential Oils.
Among
Lavender Essential Oil's many properties, it's known to be analgesic, antidepressant, antirheumatic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, antiviral, bactericide,
cicatrizant, decongestant, deodorant, diuretic, fungicide, sedative. Soothes
the spirit, relieves anger, valuable in manic-depressive cases. Has a
sedative action on the heart, assists in bringing down high blood pressure,
relieves insomnia, relieves muscular spasms and rheumatic pains. The first
essential oil one should reach for in the case of minor burns and sunburn.
Useful with menstrual problems, bronchitis and headaches, helps lower blood
pressure. Useful in a diffuser in the delivery room. May be useful in
nausea, vomiting and colic. Keeps insects at bay. Purifies the air. Promotes
growth of new skin cells, great healing effect on burns and sunburn, acne,
psoriasis, boils, fungal growths, and scarring. Lavender is one of the
safest essential oils to use with the elderly. The numbers in Lavender 40/42
indicate the linalyl acetate content; in this case, they indicate the
product contains 40-42% of linalyl acetate. Lavender 40/42 is generally a
blend of various lavenders in order to get a consistent scent from batch to
batch, with processors adding linalyl acetate to cover the smell of camphor
or borneol components of a given lavender. Since pure essential oils (not
diluted, adulterated or tampered with to make them smell better) are ""from
the plant"" each lot may vary slightly (sometimes noticeably) due to the
climate conditions that year, altitude of the region they're grown in, time
of day harvested, etc. Most soapers seem to prefer the Lavender 40/42
because it smells the way they believe lavender should smell and it's fairly
inexpensive......about half the price of other, more expensive lavenders. |

History:
Lavender is adapted to
living in a dry climate and is native to the western half of the
Mediterranean, reaching altitudes of up to 1800 meters. It is believed that
the Romans and the Benedictine monks subsequently introduced it to rest of
Europe. |

General Safety Information: Do not take any oils
internally without consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner.
Do not apply undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated
essences onto the skin. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage,
have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils only under the
proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use extreme
caution when using oils with children and give children only the gentlest
oils at extremely low doses. It is safest to consult a qualified
aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children. A skin patch test
should be conducted prior to using an oil that you've never used before.
