Lavender – Lavandula angustifolia

March 8, 2024 By Dr Malte Hozzel

Lavender – Lavandula angustifolia

The glory of aromatherapy, a mother queen to pacify and console, a cooling tonic-relaxer and rescue remedy, a panacea of amazing amplitude, a multiple support for the heart, the lungs, the digestive tract, a bestower of tranquility and peace… True Lavender oil’s complexity and fragrant beauty is hardly matched by any other essential oil.

Amongst its manifold applications is anti-spasmodic action, particularly against muscle discomfort and its effect as a toner for the heart. But also everyday aches and pains and discomfort due to overuse of muscles and joints are effectively soothed with the help of lavender. Not to forget its positive support for the respiratory tract, where it promotes clear and calm breathing.

In skin care again there is hardly an essential oil with a larger spectrum of healing properties: lavender is the first choice where there is any irritation … it is energizing, purifying and balancing for the skin … The list could easily be continued. If we add the support that lavender provides for the nervous system we are not surprised why this oil has impressed man for such a long time and why it has become one of the most used oils in modern aromatherapy.

Lavender is a never ending discovery. Hundreds of biochemical compounds have been identified so far, and the picture keeps developing. Its spiritual depth inspires empathy, forgiveness, detachment, purity. In the pink and white, purple and blue blossoms of this perennial wonder of nature lie secrets hard to encompass in a lifetime. A bouquet of a thousand virtues on a pillow of peaceful dreams.
