Description
Mentha piperita
Peppermint Essential Oil is steam distilled from the leaves of the peppermint plant. It possesses a fresh, intensely minty aroma that is both cooling and invigorating. Just a drop or two of Peppermint Essential Oil can bring clarity and brightness to any blend, making it one of the most versatile oils in aromatherapy.
Peppermint Essential Oil can be useful in diffuser and inhaler blends intended to help ease headaches, sinus congestion, and mental fatigue. It is known to help support digestive comfort and respiratory function, though it should be used with caution around young children and those with sensitive skin (see safety notes below).
Emotionally, Peppermint Essential Oil can be uplifting and energizing, helping to promote mental alertness and focus.
