Our organic Ginger Fresh essential oil, distilled from the fresh roots (rhizomes), offers a unique, sweeter, and more robust aroma compared to ginger distilled from dried roots. This distinct characteristic makes it a must-try for those seeking a well-rounded expression of ginger in their aromatherapy experience.
Ginger essential oil is not just a delightful warming oil, but also a powerful aid for preventing vomiting, morning sickness, travel or motion sickness, and nausea. For an effective aromatherapy experience, inhale a few drops of Ginger essential oil from a tissue, mix with a carrier oil, and apply to temples and stomach before and during travel or nausea-related conditions, or diffuse in an oil warmer.
This fresh Ginger essential oil may also be useful for post-chemotherapy nausea by diffusing a few drops for inhalation in an
oil diffuser or mixed with odorless
fractionated coconut oil carrier oil for applying to the temples and stomach area. A new study presented during the 2009 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncologists (ASCO) shows that
ginger is useful for treating chemotherapy associated nausea.Ginger essential oil is also good when used directly in the bath or massage blends for arthritis, muscle aches, lethargy, colds, flu and all winter chills as it warms the mind and body giving a feeling of well-being. It is also said that ginger is good for loneliness.
