10 ml Chamomile Roman (Pure) Essential Oil

Discover the soothing essence of Roman Chamomile essential oil, steam-distilled from the delicate flowers of the Anthemis Nobilis plant, sourced from England.

Roman chamomile yields an essential oil that is light blue when fresh. It can be extracted from the flower and the upper parts of the plant. It has excellent calming properties, and is said to ease irritation and impatience, while also helping with PMS and other menstrual and menopausal concerns. Roman chamomile is an evergreen with a fresh apple scent, and is mainly grown in France, Belgium, and Eastern Europe.

This oil is excellent for skin concerns such as acne, eczema, rashes, wounds, dermatitis, dry or itchy skin, and allergies. It is also said to be beneficial for abdominal pain, gall bladder problems, and throat infections, and may help relieve allergies, hay fever, and asthma. In diluted form, it can calm children suffering from colic, irritability, diarrhoea, and teething. In a vaporiser, it soothes headaches, nervous tension, and migraines. While this oil is gentle enough for use with children and babies, always consult a qualified expert before administering it.

A Rich Heritage

The medicinal use of chamomile dates back thousands of years to the ancient Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks. The Egyptians dedicated it to the sun god. A papyrus document dating to 2800 BC records the use of chamomile to treat skin disorders, and chamomile oil was used in the embalming process. Hippocrates, the great Greek physician, is said to have used chamomile as a herbal remedy. In mythology, chamomile is one of the nine sacred herbs given by Wodan, the god of the underworld, to mortals to improve their lives.
