Melissa Essential Oil - Lemon Balm
Melissa Essential Oil - Lemon Balm
It requires 7 tons of fresh plant leaves and tips to make just 2.25 pounds of Melissa Essential Oil. The resulting oil is so potent that only the smallest amount is needed to get the most benefit- more than a 1% is just wasting this precious oil.
True Melissa has an expansive, somewhat earthy aroma, with the slightest hint of citrus.
Melissa is most known to calm the nerves during times of stress. It is sedative to the central nervous system and soothes nervous tension, anxiety, and feelings of depression. It can also help recharge the spirit and dispell stagnant energy when one is feeling overwhelmed.
Another important use for Melissa is in skincare- where it helps heal skin breakouts, shingles, oily skin, bug bites, and bee stings.
