TISSERAND AROMATHERAPY Cedarwood (Virginian) Juniperus Virginiana Ethically Harvested (9 ml / 0,3 fl. oz.)

DESCRIPTION: Fresh and sweet, Virginian Cedarwood is actually derived from a tree in the Cupressaceous family. The bark of the tree, grown in the USA and Canada, is steam distilled to release a fresh, woody essential oil. Cedarwood has been used for many years, with Native Americans stripping bark from the trunk to make many items, from household goods to totem poles, while modern-day manufacturers have used it to make bespoke furniture. In aromatherapy practice, Cedarwood Virginian is used in massage blends to improve circulation, ease muscular aches and flush toxins from the body. It also has natural antibacterial and disinfectant properties and is often used in preparations for oily or blemish-prone skin. Like Cedarwood Atlas, this oil can also be used in steam inhalation or in a diffuser as a decongestant when suffering from cold and flu symptoms.
