Rosemary
oil is an essential oil which is very popular for its wide array of health
benefits. It smells very similar to tea tree oil in my opinion, it is anti
bacterial and perfect for treating some skin conditions like eczema, dermatitis
and acne.
Detailed d
Uses of Rosemary Oil
You can use fresh rosemary-infused oil on your salads as a
delicious dressing. The herb itself has a thousand uses, and it extremely hardy
and therefore easy to grow and maintain whether inside or out. You can add an
entire sprig to your soups for a unique flavor.
According to Modern
Essentials,5 a
guide to the therapeutic uses of essential oils, high-quality rosemary oil has
analgesic, antibacterial, anticancer, anticatarrhal, antifungal,
anti-infection, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and expectorant properties.
The book's A-Z list of
rosemary oil uses covers many health concerns, including for the following:6
·
Clarity – Add a drop to your hands, rub together, and cup over your
mouth and nose for up to a minute
·
Cough – Massage one to two drops over your chest and throat every
few hours
·
Headaches – Add a drop to your hands, and cup over your mouth and nose
for up to a minute. You may also apply a drop topically to the aching parts of
your head.
·
Learning and memory – Diffuse the oil throughout the room, inhale directly from
the bottle, rub over your temples, or apply to your toes regularly.
·
Vaginal infection – Massage one to two drops in or around the vagina, making
sure to test for sensitivity before attempting internal use.
Both rosemary oil and teas are added to shampoos and lotions.
Regularly using the oil helps stimulate follicles, aiding in long, strong hair
growth. You can also massage your scalp with the oil to nourish it and remove
dandruff.
Rosemary oil can also be used
on your pets as a hair growth stimulant and for helping produce shiny coats.
This essential oil is a disinfectant and is often used as a
mouthwash, helping remove bad breath. By removing oral bacteria, rosemary oil
can prevent cavities, plaque buildup, and other dental issues. The mesmerizing
aroma of rosemary is worth noting, too, making it an excellent inhalant.
Rosemary oil is used in candles, perfumes, bath oils, fresheners,
and cosmetics, boosting mental energy when inhaled.
Used with 50:50
dilution, rosemary oil can be applied on ankles and wrists (two to four drops),
applied to chakras or vitaflex points, directly inhaled, diffused, or as an
dietary supplement.7
Composition of Rosemary Oil
The main chemical
components of rosemary oil include a-pinene, borneol, b-pinene, camphor, bornyl
acetate, camphene, 1,8-cineole, and limonene. A study published in Chemistry of
Natural Compounds8 looked
at the volatile compounds obtained from the essential oil of rosemary
cultivated at the Algerian Sahara.
Its analysis found
that 30 compounds represented 98.2 percent of the essential oil, with
1,8-cineole (29.5 percent), 2-ethyl-4,5-dimethylphenol (12 percent) and camphor
(11.5 percent) as the major components.
Benefits of Rosemary Oil
Rosemary oil has been extensively used and studied since ancient
times for a variety of health benefits. Today, it is included in many medicinal
preparations, with many potential offerings. Organic Facts cites some of them:
1.Indigestion – Rosemary oil is often used for relieving flatulence, stomach
cramps, constipation, and bloating. The essential oil is also deemed helpful in
stimulating appetite.
Research shows that rosemary essential oil can help detoxify the
liver and help regulate the creation and release of bile, a key part of the
digestive process.
2.Stress relief – Aside from its aromatheraupeutic benefits, rosemary oil is
seen to decrease the level of cortisol, one of the hormones released during the
body's flight-or-flight response to stress, in the saliva.
According to the 2007
study,9 inhaling
rosemary and lavender oils for five minutes significantly reduced cortisol
levels in the subjects' saliva, potentially decreasing the dangers of chronic
stress.
3.Pain relief – Rosemary essential oil is promoted for its ability to
relieve pain, which is why it's widely used in treating headaches, muscle
pains, and even arthritis.10
Massage the affected area with the essential oil, which you can
also add to vapor baths for the treatment of rheumatism. Its anti-inflammatory
qualities make it a good way to address pain from sprains and joint aches.
4.Immune system boost – The same 2007 study that found reduced cortisol levels after
simultaneous massage and inhalation of rosemary essential oil found that the
free radical-scavenging activity in the subjects' bodies also significantly
increased.
Antioxidants are a valuable weapon to fight off infection and
disease, so this benefit of rosemary oil is welcome news — regularly using or
inhaling it can support your immunity and help you fight off diseases linked to
free radicals.
5.Respiratory problems – The scent of the oil has been shown to provide relief from
throat congestion, and in treating respiratory allergies, colds, sore throat,
and the flu.
Its antiseptic action also makes rosemary oil useful for
respiratory infections. Because of its antispasmodic effect, it is also used in
certain treatment programs for bronchial asthma.
Rosemary oil also
appears to work wonders on anxiety.11 A
study published in Holistic Nursing Practice in 200912 found
that the use of sachets containing lavender and rosemary essential oils helped reduce anxiety associated with test-taking.
Using this essential
oil seems to benefit brain health, too. A 2003 study published in the
International Journal of Neuroscience,13which
involved 144 volunteers, found that rosemary oil helped improve mood in healthy
adults. There is also a positive effect proposed for Alzheimer's patients — a
small study in 200914 found
that one month of aromatherapy involving rosemary, lemon, lavender, and orange essential
oils helped enhanced cognitive function, especially in Alzheimer's patients.
