Helpful Herbs: Lavender
Since our new Lavender Vanilla Body Butters and Pit Puttys have been such a hit, I thought I’d write about some of the benefits of today’s Helpful Herb: Lavender.
Reduced StressThus study found that bathing with lavender reduced stress and enhanced sleep in mothers and their infants. This study found that lavender and rosemary essential oils helped nursing students relax during testing.
MigrainesThis study found that inhalation of lavender essential oil reduced the symptoms of migraine headaches. Nintey-two out of 129 headache cases improved with lavender, whereas only thirty-two out of sixty-eight of the placebo group improved.
InsomniaThe scent of lavender has been found to help with insomnia and depression. (Source, Source) “According to the study results, it can be concluded that the lavender fragrance had a beneficial effect on insomnia and depression in women college students. Repeated studies are needed to confirm effective proportions of lavender oil and carrier oil for insomnia and depression.”
Antibacterial/antifungalLavender essential oil has been found in lab tests to be effective against candida albicans (Source) and to be antibacterial against certain strains of staph. (Source)
Reduced Menstrual Cramps & PMSOne study found that inhaling lavender (diluted in a 2:1 ratio in sesame oil) helped reduce menstrual cramps. (Source) Another study found lavender oil aromatherapy to help ease some symptoms (mood, energy) in PMS. (Source)
