Basil Natural Essential Oil

Basil essential oil is obtained through steam distillation from the flowering parts of the plant. Its aroma is sweet and fresh, with a slightly balsamic undertone.

Basil is valued for its regenerative and soothing effects, often used to alleviate muscle and joint pain, ease breathing, and cool the skin. It is suitable for aromatic, external, and internal use. It has a warm, spicy, yet herbal fragrance that helps reduce anxiety.

In aromatherapy, it is used to relieve tension in the head and neck, and to enhance concentration and calm the mind (thanks to its high content of linalool). It is also a great aid during meditation techniques. Overall, it helps calm the nervous system due to overwork.

You can use essential oil in diffusers and aroma jewelry. More information about the oils used can be found below.

When using essential oils and blends, it is important that the oil, as well as the blend, smells pleasant to you. If the blend feels pleasant, you will feel good, and your thoughts and body will absorb the therapeutic blend more intensely. If the aroma of the essential oil or a mixture of essential oils is unpleasant, it will not evoke the right feelings, harmony, and calm you need.

Detailed information

Product detailed description

  • Energy and concentration boost – Due to its stimulating effect, basil oil can support mental sharpness, focus, and energy.

Usage:

Basil oil is highly versatile and can be applied in various ways, such as inhalation, diffusion, or added to a bath. However, it is important to note that some people may be sensitive to stronger essential oils, so it is always a good idea to perform a sensitivity test before use.

  • Add 5 drops to a bath at a temperature of up to 37 °C. For better solubility, you can mix it with salt or a carrier oil.
  • Direct inhalation: Place 1 to 2 drops on a cotton handkerchief or cotton pad and inhale.
  • Aroma jewelry: Add a few drops (1-5 drops depending on the size of the jewelry).
  • Aroma lamp or diffuser: Add 2-3 drops to the aroma lamp and let it diffuse in your home, apartment, office, or even in the car.

At first, use fewer drops to avoid making the blend too strong. The effects of essential oils are most potent during the first 30-60 minutes, depending on how quickly the oils evaporate. After this time, the effect decreases.

 

Contraindications:

Never apply the oil to the skin in its pure form; always dilute it in a carrier oil. It is non-toxic and non-irritating, but occasionally sensitizing. Always test a small amount first for sensitivity or allergic reactions. Direct or indirect contact with the eyes may cause irritation. If you are pregnant, consult a doctor before use.
