Revitalizing & Refreshing

Sweet, minty and refreshing, the familiar fragrance of Wintergreen gives new energy to tiredness. It is one of the best oils for muscular spasms, aches and pains. Use for rheumatic conditions, gout and stiffness due to old age. Assists us in letting go of control and release old habits or beliefs so we get closer to our own spiritual understanding. Wintergreen is noted to control plaque, gingivitis and tooth decay and are the reasons why it is included in products such as mouth rinse and mouthwashes. Effective as an insecticide or fumigant.
