A warming oil, ginger is particularly good for digestion and is wonderfully effective at fighting nausea and vomiting. Place a drop on a handkerchief and inhale to ease motion sickness, colds, and hangovers.

Ginger oil has long been valued for its many therapeutic properties. It is used to soothe the pain of fractures, rheumatism, arthritis, and carbuncles, and it offers relief from coughs, sinusitis, sore throats, skin sores, diarrhoea, colic, cramps, chills, and fever. When diffused in a vaporiser, this oil helps lift the spirits, ease loneliness and depression, and its naturally energising qualities make it a wonderful aphrodisiac.

Sanskrit and Chinese texts both record the use of ginger as medicine, and it also appears in ancient Greek, Roman, and Arabian literature. Dried ginger has traditionally been used for stomach aches, diarrhoea, sore throats, and nausea, while the Chinese have long used it to support the heart and reduce excess mucus and phlegm.
