Description
Oregano Essential Oil
Oregano Essential Oil has many aromatherapy applications, owing to a potent mix of benefits.
It is used for topical application after it has been properly diluted in suitable carrier oil. *Due to its potency, Oregano Essential Oil must always be properly diluted prior to topical application.
Oregano Essential Oil can also be used for diffusing, but is best diluted with other essential oils for this purpose.
Oregano Essential Oil blends well with a good number of other aromatherapy oils derived from medicinal herbs and spices. (See list below.)
However, Oregano Essential Oil has a pungent aroma which can sometimes overpower more delicately scented aromatherapy oils.
Oregano Aromatherapy Oil is herbaceous, spicy, crisp and almost camphorous, with mild citrusy overtones. It is the key components of Eugenol and the Phenol, Cravacrol, which lend this essential oil it’s most potent aromatic qualities.

Oregano Essential Oil Specific Uses
Oregano Essential Oil is invigorating and stimulating. It is particularly popular for diffusing during cold and flu season, and for reviving those who feel as though they may be ‘coming down with something’.
Oregano Aromatherapy Oil is also a popular choice for DIY eco cleaning & green household products.
**Just like Tea Tree Essential Oil, it can be added to your laundry detergent to disinfect both your wash & washing machine. It is capable of killing mould, viruses, & bacteria which lurk inside your washing machine.
Organic Oregano Essential Oil is one of the most potent essential oils there is. It is stream distilled from the medicinal herb Oregarum Vulgare into a highly concentrated essential oil.
The Nigella Sativa and Oregano has worked amazingly. Thank you. Xxx

Oregano Essential Oil Attributes
Oregano Essential Oil is a great balancing essential oil.
I had terrible issues with my stomach and digestive system on many levels but nothing the doctors gave me has helped.
I have to say I was dubious at first but since using the Nigella and Oregano my life has changed. Such a relief.
I would say I now have a ‘normal’ life in that regard and the help that Rachel gave me has been a real revelation.
I am so grateful to her and can only recommend her in the highest regard.
Cheers Rachel

My daughter and husband always have sinus problems and at the first sign they steam with a couple of drops of oregano and eucalyptus and it always helps so much.
