ROSEMARY ESSENTIAL OIL (MOROCCAN)
If you’ve ever wondered are all Rosemary essential oils the same? The answer is no, they’re not! There are different chemotypes (ct.) of Rosemary Oil, meaning the genetic chemical makeup can differ across various types, and therefore have different key benefits. AWO’s Rosemary Essential Oil (Moroccan) is the Cineol chemotype, which means it has a high percentage of naturally occurring 1,8-cineol (aka eucalyptol). This constituent is what makes this oil particularly beneficial for respiratory conditions, congestion, haircare, and skincare.
The many benefits of Moroccan Rosemary Essential Oil have been seen to assist in many aspects of life:
- Because of the natural medicinal and antiseptic properties, it is appreciated as one of the best essential oils for cuts and small wounds.
- Moroccan Rosemary Essential Oil contains a high percentage of 1,8-Cineole and this makes it a fantastic respiratory aid by opening up the lungs and nasal passages and breaking down excess mucus.
- The high α-pinene content is also helpful in reducing spasmodic coughing, making this oil a powerhouse for easing the symptoms of colds, flus, bronchitis & sinusitis.
- Its ability to alleviate dandruff and encourage healthy hair growth makes this oil one of the best essential oils for hair; it has also been seen to slow down the greying process whilst moisturizing and hydrating the scalp.
- Because of its natural antiseptic and antibacterial properties, it’s one of the best essential oils for killing bacteria and viruses, as well as helping to heal cuts and small wounds.
- When it comes to skincare, Rosemary Oil is a strong astringent. Because of this, the benefits of Rosemary Essential Oil have been seen to help tighten sagging skin, ease puffiness & reduce swelling.
- From an aromatherapy perspective, new research has also shown that Rosemary Oil can encourage nerve growth and neurological tissue healing, therefore helping to boost your memory, cognitive function, mental alertness and focus.
- Whilst not quite as effective as a Camphor based Rosemary Oil, Cineol Rosemary Oil can also be beneficial to increase circulation, reduce inflammation, and provide warmth to the skin and underlying muscles, making it a very beneficial oil for massage.
If you’re looking for a Camphor type Rosemary Essential Oil (particularly beneficial for muscle pain, inflammation, cramps & digestion), try our conventional Rosemary Essential Oil (Spanish).
