Description
Melissa essential oil is a remedy for many everyday problems. It is extracted from the leaves of the Melissa officinalis plant, using steam distillation. The herb is believed to have originated in Turkey, although it is now present all over the world. It belongs to the same family as mint, but their properties differ significantly. Melissa's rich history of medicinal use began at least 2,000 years ago, and nothing heralds its end.
Melissa oil - properties
Melissa has a very interesting composition, full of medicinal substances and compounds. Among them, you can find antioxidants that fight free radical damage, terpenes with anti-inflammatory effects or antiviral acids. The product relieves headaches and promotes a healthy immune response already at the cellular level.
The oil relieves menstrual pain and symptoms associated with PMS - cramps, irritability and anxiety. The product prevents the growth of pathogenic bacteria that seriously threaten health. It is successfully used in the treatment of dermatological ailments, which include eczema, acne or erythema - a bath or massage with the oil is enough to improve the condition of the skin.
It is known for its beneficial effects on mood and well-being. But it's more than that - the product improves cognitive function and memory, and, according to recent studies, shows great potential in alleviating symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The aroma, which is a combination of fresh, sweet and citrus notes, alleviates stress and tension, cramps, and is sometimes helpful during sleep problems. It blends perfectly with other essential oils that have a floral or spicy scent, but it also works well when used alone.
