In recent years, essential oil has become a necessity for many people to relieve stress and help them sleep, and its selection and use are very promising. Guo Zi, an American certified clinical herbalist and aromatherapy expert, wrote in Jian Kang magazine in Taiwan Province that lavender essential oil is the best choice for getting started, and introduced several ways to use it.
People who often work at night can smell lavender essential oil before work. A study on night shift workers found that smelling lavender essential oil for a few minutes 30 minutes before going to work, during and after night shift, the stress hormone concentration of employees will drop by 25%, their anxiety will be lower and their blood pressure will be relatively stable.
In contrast, stress hormones in the general human body are high, and long-term night shift will increase the risk of chronic diseases such as immune disorder, depression, allergy, hypertension and diabetes. In addition, lavender has many uses in life. A study in Turkey found that massage with lavender essential oil can reduce dysmenorrhea and premenstrual syndrome in women.
In skin care, 30ml emulsion can be added with 15 drops of lavender essential oil, which can promote skin renewal and metabolism. In addition, if lavender essential oil is stored in the refrigerator, it can be applied to the wound immediately after being scalded during cooking, which can reduce blisters and fade scars.
In home life, you can use 3~5 drops of essential oil according to the size of the space to create a quiet atmosphere. Spraying lavender essential oil on the sheets before going to bed also helps sleep.
