Description
Roman Chamomile
Origin and background
The medicinal use of chamomile dates back thousands of years to the ancient Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks. The Egyptians dedicated it to the God of Sun. The use of chamomile for the treatment of skin diseases has been described in a papyrus dating back to 2800 BC. Chamomile oil was used to embalm bodies. It is said that the famous Greek physician Hippocrates also used chamomile as a medicinal plant.
In mythology, chamomile is one of the nine sacred herbs that the underworld god Wodan gave to mortals to improve their lives.
Chamomile oil has many wonderful properties, but unfortunately, like most oils made of flower petals, it is very valuable.

Recommended uses
Topical
- It is recommended to use essential oils and their blend in a diluted form. Especially for sensitive and gentle skin. This means adding a small amount of water or carrier oil before applying it to the skin. The blend can be placed, for example, in a roll-on bottle that is convenient to carry along and can be used at any convenient time.
- Can also be added to a neutral unscented cream, lotion, or liquid soap to achieve radiant and healthy skin.
- Can be used in an aroma diffuser both at home or in the office to create a pleasant and cozy atmosphere that relaxes the senses and creates a pleasant aroma around you.
- It can also be added to an oil burner. Don't forget to add water to the oil burner and then drip in the essential oil! Pure essential oil is too strong and has a faint odor.
- Can be added to hot bath water and enjoy an aromatic mini-vacation in the middle of everyday life or at the end of a busy week.
- Combine it with other compatible oils (see recommendations below) in a diffuser or bath water.
- Can be diluted in the spray bottle with water and spray it at home, in the office, or just to refresh your bed linen.
