Wild Crafted Birch Essential Oil
Birch essential oil, also known as Sweet Birch, is rich in methyl salicylates which give this oil its very potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties.
These properties make Birch a very effective oil for pain relief and reducing inflammation, and lends itself well for use on overworked muscles and painful joints. It provides gentle relief for sprains, strains, muscle cramps, pain and swelling.
Birch has a lovely sweet and refreshing aroma that promotes comfort and relaxation, and supports the body physically and emotionally. Its beautiful scent helps improve the mood, refresh the mind, and calm agitation.
