Pine essential oil
Pinus Sylvestris
This essential oil is produced by steam distillation of pine needles and it is characterized by woody aroma with balsamic undertone. It is mostly used in steam therapy (inhalation) but it is excellent in compresses, baths and massage blends. Look for it in most of our therapeutic products, like Herbal massage solution, where it shows its strong properties for chronic inflammatory disorders.
It blends well with essential oils of eucalyptus, bergamot, grapefruit and Spanish sage.
