AUST L 338888
With its relaxing and uplifting properties, Cypress oil has been traditionally used in aromatherapy to relieve mild rheumatic aches and pains and relieve a cough.
Dating back to the ancient Egyptians, cypress trees have a long history of use by mankind. This belief is reflected in the plant’s botanical name ‘sempervirens’ which means ‘ever-living’. Nowadays this symbolic longevity has taken the form of personal care products as we use cypress in all sorts of soaps and perfumes. When it comes to our Cypress essential oil, it can be inhaled or applied topically to areas of the body for therapeutic benefits.
