ABSOLUTE AROMAS SWEET THYME ESSENTAIL OIL 10ML
ABSOLUTE AROMAS SWEET THYME ESSENTAIL OIL 10ML
Description:
Thyme, Sweet (Linalool)
Sweet Thyme has a clean, herbaceous, green aroma and is very useful during bouts of illness. It is a great oil for lethargy, digestive problems and respiratory conditions.
Country of Origin: Spain
Botanical Name: Thymus Vulgaris
Ingredients:
Plant Family: Lamiaceae (Labiatae).
Method of Extraction: The oil is produced by steam-distillation of the leaves and flowering tops.
The distillation of the oil is mainly undertaken in Spain, but also occurs elsewhere in the Mediterranean region. There are many different species of Thyme and within Thymus Vulgaris there are a variety of chemotypes that change the constituent make-up of the oil significantly.
The most common chemotypes are "Thymol" and "Carvacrol", which contain high levels of toxic Phenols (up to 60% Thymol and Carvacrol). Absolute Aromas offers "Sweet Thyme", which is sweeter, less toxic and less irritant than the Thymol and Carvacrol types, with a maximum 3% concentration of these components.
Directions:
Try adding 1 drop each of Thyme, Lemon and Rosemary to the water in an oil burner to help create a 'germ-free zone' during times of family ills.
Blend 2 drops of Thyme, 3 drops of Geranium and 1 drop of Palmarosa in a teaspoon of Peach Kernel oil. Use as a body massage oil to help you get back on your feet after illness or if you are feeling run-down.
Main Theraputic Properties: Antibacterial, Anticatarrhal, Anti-infectious, Neurotonic, Digestive stimulant, Antirheumatic.
Contraindications: Non toxic and non irritant in prescribed doses.

Chinese Element: Water & Metal.
