Possibly the best known
fragrance in the world of aromatherapy, lavender has been used for
relaxation for centuries. People who know nothing else about lavender
know one its best qualities is the ability to relieve stress and
tension as an aid in relaxation. Perhaps your first memory of lavender
was the fragrance your grandmother added to her wash to make her linens
smell sweet and fresh. But lavender does so much more. This month we
want to say a few words about the first-aid qualities of this aromatic
herb.
One of the few essential oils that may be applied directly to the
skin without dilution in a carrier oil, lavender actually has antiseptic
and healing properties. These healing properties of lavender were
discovered by a French doctor in the 1920s who seriously burned his hand
during a laboratory experiment. As any of us would do, his first thought
was to put his hand in something cool.
