Description

Ancient origin: Frankincense (also known Olibanum) and Myrrh are thought to be the first tree resins used as incense by the ancient Egyptians. It was used as an incense in India, China, the West and by the Catholic Church. Frankincense was burned to clear the air in sick rooms and during religious ceremonies and was thought to drive away evil spirits. In New Testament times it ranked alongside precious stones as a valuable commodity. The three Kings brought Frankincense as one of the gifts for baby Jesus. It is a handsome small shrub with abundant pinnate leaves and white or pink flowers and a wonderful fragrance. The gum resin is collected by making incisions into the bark. A milky white liquid appears which then solidifies into tear shaped amber drops.

Source: A native of the Red Sea region Frankincense grows wild though out north east Africa. The gum is produced mainly in Somalia, Ethiopia, China and south Arabia, then distilled in Europe and India.

Skin Care: Frankincense is recommended for mature complexions and has a definite tonic effect. It can help to slow down the appearance of wrinkles. It can also help with blemishes, scars and wounds.

Respiratory system: Frankincense is particularly active in relation to the lungs and is one of the best oils to use for respiratory infections. It calms coughs and helps with bronchitis. It can be used in inhalations, massages and baths.

Nervous system: Frankincense has a calming effect on the emotions and its ability to slow down and deepen the breathing makes it excellent for stress and upset. It can help break links with the past and may be valuable to people who tend to dwell on past events.

Genito-Urinary System: The oil has an affinity with the urino-genital tract and can help to treat abnormally heavy periods and infections.

Mixing Oils: It blends well with Sandalwood, Pine, Vetivert, Lavender, Geranium, Neroli, Orange, Bergamot, Basil, Black Pepper, Cinnamon and other spice oils.
