Benefits of Roman Chamomile Essential Oil

Time for my first oil spotlight.

Roman Chamomile

— Chamaemelum nobile —

Botanical family: Asteraceae

Native to Italy, France, United States, Hungary, Chile, Germany.

Steam distilled from flowers.

Yellow to clear color.

A couple of weeks ago one of my sweet neighbor mamas asked me for an oil (or two) to help relieve her teething daughter’s discomfort.

I added a drop of Roman chamomile + Lavender in a 5 ml roller bottle topped off with fractionated coconut oil.

She used it on her baby‘s jawline and — she slept through the night without waking from teething pain.

Now, Roman chamomile is generally known for its soothing, calming, and sedative properties.

However, as I dove deeper into this single essential oil this morning, I felt the need to highlight a few more of this oil’s wonderful therapeutic actions.

🌱 anti-inflammatory (skin conditions)
🌱 antispasmodic (relieves muscle spasms)
🌱 febrifuge (reduces fevers; cools body)
🌱 vulnerary (promotes wound healing)
🌱 analgesic (reduces pain perception)
🌱 antipruritic (reduces itching)
🌱 digestive support
🌱 relaxes the nervous system
🌱 relieves anxiety and tension

And mamas, this is for us in particular:

🌱 can help calm hyper-active kiddos
🌱 perineal healing after birth
🌱 helps with PMS
🌱 regulates monthly cycle
🌱 aids in reducing period pain

🌿 It has a strong, sweet and apple-like aroma.

So many good things. You can grab a bottle here if you’re keen on trying this essential oil.

This is an oil that I keep handy and that’s a regular in our natural medicine cabinet at home.

In finally decided to share about it over on my personal account yesterday (story is still active on here) but felt like this needed a permanent spot on this feed, as well — — since, after all, this is a mama run small shop and my babies
