Pine Essential Oil

Clean, fresh, energizing, pain relieving...
Great for cleaning recipes and diffuser blends



Pine essential oil is often used for relieving mental and physical fatigue. It helps improve thinking, alertness and memory, so it's good for studying, driving and any other situation where you need you wits about you.


Pine oil also kills germs and promotes healing, which makes it great for diffuser blends or room sprays for sickrooms. It's particularly good for bronchitis, coughs, colds, flu and asthma, since the vapors help break up congestion and improve breathing.


Pine's warming, stimulating action helps relieve pain from rheumatism, arthritis, gout and muscle stiffness.
