Lavender Aromatherapy Bath Oil Recipe
A relaxing, pain-relieving, sleep-inducing aromatherapy bath recipe... ahhhhhh!
Unwind in a warm bath scented with sweet lavender aromatherapy bath oil...
This recipe soothes your cranky mood
and helps you get a good night's sleep,
while also helping to break up congestion and ease your sore, achy muscles.
Lavender, benzoin and cedarwood essential oils help relieve pain by reducing inflammation,
relaxing tight muscles and sedating your nervous system.
They also support breathing by helping to clear your airways,
while frankincense slows your breath and quiets your mind.
Good for stress, insomnia and colds and flu.
