Cinnamon Essential Oil 10ml

Latin name: Cinnamomum Zeylanicum

Part of plant used: Leaves and twigs

Origin: Sri Lanka

Extraction method: Steam distillation

Cinnamon essential oil is extracted by steam distillation from the Cinnamomum zeylanicum tree, also called Ceylon cinnamon or true cinnamon. There are two types of essential oils extracted: one from the leaves, which is milder, light yellow to light brown in color, and is most frequently used in aromatherapy; and the other from the bark, which is dark brown in color and is not commonly preferred in aromatherapy.

Cinnamon oil is soothing with potent antiseptic properties. When used in an oil burner, it is said that this oil helps with colds and bronchitis and relieves depression. It is used to help with bronchitis, diarrhea, chills, infections, flu, rheumatism, and arthritis when used in bath water or mixed with a massage oil. It relieves nausea and vomiting. It stimulates the glandular system and, therefore, reduces menstrual pain. Avoid the leaf oil during pregnancy. The bark oil is very strong and should only be used diluted, under expert supervision.

The cinnamon tree is native to the Indian subcontinent and has been an important trade item for centuries between India, China, and Egypt. The source of cinnamon was a mystery to the Western world for a long time. According to Herodotus and other authors, Arabia was the source of cinnamon. The story goes that giant cinnamon birds collected cinnamon sticks for their nests in a mysterious place where cinnamon trees grew. The Arabs then tricked the birds and took the cinnamon from them. This was the belief until 1310 in Byzantium.
