The Health Benefits of Cedarwood Oil

When you think of cedarwood oil, your mind probably drifts back to some of the more pleasant scents from childhood. It has a certain soft, cosy quality that conjures great feelings and while it is best known as a mosquito repellent, it is also used for a number of other crucial benefits. Read on to learn more.

Acne Cleansing

If you are experiencing stubborn acne that just won’t go away, try adding one mere droplet of cedarwood oil to your morning routine. Adding a drop to your morning moisturising regime helps to clear up your skin and have it looking its absolute best.

Relief of Anxiety

Did you know that the calming feeling that washes over you upon taking in the scent of cedarwood oil is able to be used for your anxiety needs, as well? Inhaling straight from the bottle or adding a drop or two above the brow provides the calming influence that we all need in life.

Congestion

One of the most underrated benefits of cedarwood oil is its effect on our respiratory systems. By applying one or two drops to the area that is providing you with the most difficulty, you can relieve congestion. Allowing the drops to soak into the reflex areas of the feet is also another method that works.

Dandruff

To relieve your dandruff, take one or two drops of the cedarwood oil and massage it into the problem areas of the scalp. Coconut oil can be used in tandem with the cedarwood oil, in order to maximize its antifungal potential. The combination also works wonders from a moisturizing standpoint.

Emotional Tension

Cedarwood oil can help alleviate the emotional tension you are feeling. Simply place a droplet above the heart if you are feeling emotional strain and if the strain is mental, then a drop above the brow can also work. Blending the oil with citrus is also helpful for reducing your overall stress level.

Psoriasis

While this common skin condition frustrates many, cedarwood oil can deliver a viable solution. While one or two drops may work, you may need additional drops depending on how large the psoriasis area has become. You can apply the drops once a day, or multiple times a day, if necessary.

Retention of Water

The drops should be applied to your feet’s reflex points, or in other instances, you will want to place the cedarwood oil on the bladder and kidneys. By massaging the oil into these areas once or twice a day, you can make water retention a thing of the past.

Cedarwood oil has a number of amazing usages, most of which are not commonly discussed in daily living. Thanks to lists like these, we can now utilise this sweet smelling oil for more than just nostalgia purposes.
