Yarrow essential oil also has a calming effect and helps improving sleep and reducing stress. St. John's wort and Melissa essential oils are used to deal with anxiety, nervousness and tension. Mint essential oil energizes and brings a feeling of freshness. The healing functions of oregano and helichrysum make the oils suitable for the treatment of rheumatism and arthritis.

When using essential oils in the bath or in the shower, we advise you to be careful and always to follow the recommendations for diluting the essential oils. They should be added to shower gel, foam or shampoo when used in the shower, and when added to a scented bath, we recommend that they be redissolved in the bath foam or added to milk so that the oils do not form a film on the surface.
