Palo Santo Essential Oil
Maybe many people have not know palo santo essential oil in detail. Today, I will take you to understand the palo santo essential oil from four aspects.
Introduction of Palo Santo Essential Oil
Palo santo essential oil is derived from the palo santo tree, which bears the scientific name Bursera graveolens and is native to Central and South American countries, such as Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Mexico, and Costa Rica. Through a steam distillation process, the concentrated resins and oils can be extracted, which provide a wide range of health benefits. These impressive effects on human health are largely the result of its extremely high limonene content, as well as lower levels of alpha-terpineol and carvone. These compounds have various antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, sedative, and relaxant, anti-mutagenic and immune-boosting properties that make this oil highly sought after.

ABOUT
Palo Santo is a revered tree native to South America. Palo Santo Essential Oil is considered a cousin to Frankincense Oil because both share similar constituents (primarily Limonene), slightly similar aromas and because both have similar applications. The aroma of Palo Santo Essential Oil is uniquely sweet, balsamic and woody. Palo Santo loosely reminds me of an intoxicating combination of frankincense, atlas cedar, sweetgrass, lemon and a subtle hint of mint.
Precautions: Set it up according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Place it at least 2-feet above the ground to get the full benefits.
