Our 1,8 cineole chemotype of Rosemary is warming, stimulating and high in 1,8 cineole with a non co-eluting amount of 48.76%. Certainly the Moroccan climate is responsible for this outstanding Rosemary ct cineole. This is the Rosemary preferred in massage blends to increase circulation, soothe muscular aches, pains and headaches. Also often used for sore muscle relief, conditions of arthritis or rheumatism, and cellulite.
The hot dry climate in Morocco accounts for the high 1,8 cineole content in this chemotype, opposed to our Rosemary Verbenone where the cooler coastal climate results in a Rosemary with higher vebenone content.
In hair care Rosemary Cineole is said to promote a healthy scalp and hair and may stimulate hair growth. For skin care this is the Rosemary said to be helpful with excessively oily skin and acne. The high 1,8 cineole content makes this oil well suited for use with upper respiratory infections.
