THE STORY OF PEPPERMINT ESSENTIAL OIL
Mentha piperita
(Origin Leaves and flowers)
Peppermint can invigorate your mind and body. With roots that reach outward and its leaves providing a breath of fresh clean air. It has been used in Eastern and Western medicines as teas, herbs and oils for its cooling and soothing ability for a range of things such as digestive issues, nausea, headaches and muscle cramps.
The aroma of Peppermint essential oil is fresh, menthol, clean, cooling, refreshing, stimulating and reviving. Many peppermint oil uses have been documented back to 1,000 B.C. and have been found in several Egyptian pyramids. In Greek mythology, the nymph Mentha (or Minthe) was transformed into a sweet-smelling herb by Pluto, who had fallen in love with her and wanted people to appreciate her for years to come.
Peppermint is both cooling and warming which is why it is handy to use for tired and aching muscles. Helpful for mild tension headaches, it can be used as a first response to soothe and may assist with sinus relief.
