Used for IBS, hormonal problems, stress relief, SAD, cellulite, detox, arthritis, wonder skin.
This is a wonderful oil for any hormonal - womens problems as it balances hormones in particular with regard to PMS, bloating, tenderness of the breast and in particular mood swings. This oil is very useful when used for menopausal symptoms as it is very successful at treating hot flushes, stress and depression. Also useful when you are trying to conceive as it regulates your hormones and so will also help sufferers of endometriosis.
Use this oil in your skin care as it balances the oil produced by your skin, so if you have both dry and oily areas of the face this can be particularly useful. The results are wonderful smooth, supple and young looking skin - add 1 drop to your normal moisturiser when applying it or add to some evening primrose cream.
If you feel low during the winter months suffering from SAD or any type of depression this oil is wonderful when mixed with Bergamot.
Geranium also has good pain relieving properties so can be used for arthritis, rheumatism or aches and pains.
Geranium is also known to stimulate the lymphatic system and has a diuretic effect so aiding the bodies elimination of water and toxins. This makes it a useful oil for detoxifying, cellulite breakdown, fluid retention and swelling in the legs and ankles.
If you suffer from IBS Geranium relieves the symptoms of the pain and bloating, but the key benefit of this oil is stress relief as this helps prevent the IBS symptoms.
I use this oil in a burner, put 3 drops with 2 drops of Frankincense, the smell is wonderful and you feel really chilled out.
Try adding 4 drops to your bath when you feel hormonal or low. If you have sensitive skin add it to a tablespoon of carrier (oil or milk).
