Soothe sore muscles and alleviate aches and pains while enjoying the calming and relaxing aromas of Vetiver.Description
Vetiver essential oil is hydro-distilled from the roots of Vetiver, a member of the grass family. The roots of Vetiver grow downward, making this plant ideal to help stabilise the soil and prevent erosion. The oil obtained from these beneficial root systems has been used since the Middle Ages, most commonly as an ingredient in skincare and cologne. The deep, woody and exotic aromas of Vetiver also have soothing and relaxing properties. This rich and complex oil has been used as early as the 12th century for therapeutic benefit.
Traditionally used in aromatherapy to reduce and relieve mild aches and pains and decrease the symptoms of muscle strain, Vetiver essential oil may also be applied topically to relieve the symptoms of acne. Vetiver can also aid relaxation when diffused and is perfect added to a massage oil.
