Relaxing ointment for bedtime

An ointment for rubbing and massaging the skin with essential oils from mandarin peel, lavender flowers, and chamomile. The soothing scent of pure essential oils provides relief after an intense day and enhances the feeling of relaxation. Safe for children from 3 months of age, pregnant women, and breastfeeding mothers.

Natural essential oils consist of many molecules that affect our body through the sense of smell and by penetrating the skin. Through the nose, they go straight to the limbic system, which is responsible for our emotions and memory. This is why certain scents have a soothing effect on us and bring back pleasant memories. This phenomenon is called the “Proust phenomenon” and refers to the protagonist of the novel “In Search of Lost Time,” in which the smell of a cookie triggered a wave of childhood memories. Importantly, it is from childhood that we have the most scent memories. The science that studies the influence of scents on feelings and emotional state is called aromachology. This ointment was created based on this science and knowledge of aromatherapy.

Who is it for?

For children from 3 months of age, adults, and the elderly. It can be used before bedtime (as a body massage or rubbed into the wrists) or at any time when we need to calm down and relax. Thanks to its formula, the ointment allows you to inhale essential oils and benefit from their transdermal action, i.e., penetration through the skin into the bloodstream. The ingredients are ideal for massage and skin care. The ointment can be used on various areas of the skin that require regeneration, just like a lotion. It has a delicate fragrance.

The composition includes:

Natural essential oils:

- lavender - Lavandula Angustifolia Oil - a distillate from narrow-leaved lavender, valued for its relaxing, calming, and sleep-inducing properties.

- mandarin - Citrus Nobilis Peel Oil Expressed - cold-pressed, recommended for sleep disorders, nervous tension, irritability, excess stress, as well as problems with constipation and abdominal pain.

- Chamomile - Anthemis Nobilis Flower Oil - a distillate from Roman chamomile, with calming and sleep-inducing properties. This essential oil is also valued for its nerve-strengthening and skin-care properties.

The power of synergy:
the oils have been selected to enhance each other's effects. The variety of the plant and the processing method are key here. At the same time, these essential oils are considered safe even for small children, and their therapeutic properties are supported by many years of traditional use and literature. If you are interested in medical research on the effects of essential oils, you will find a lot of information on Pubmed (use the magnifying glass there).

Skin care ingredients:

- shea butter
- babassu oil
- sweet almond oil
- sunflower oil
- jojoba oil
- vitamin E.

How to perform a relaxing massage?

Warm up a small amount of the product in your hands to release the power of the essential oils. Massage the ointment into the skin on your back, shoulders, and stomach. When you need to collect your thoughts or feel anxious during the day, massage a small amount of the product into your earlobes (the place where you wear earrings) or the inside of your wrists. Stimulating the ears has a relaxing effect and makes it easier to fall asleep. Remember that aromatherapy is not just about the scent, but also about the oils penetrating the skin. The scent may become imperceptible to you after a while, which is natural.

Abdominal massage: as lavender relieves colic and abdominal pain, has carminative and antispasmodic properties, it is worth using the ointment for abdominal massage. Perform the massage in a circular motion around the navel. Follow the direction of the clock.

The ointment has the consistency of thick butter (its hardness depends on the ambient temperature).

How to use: warm a small amount of the product in your hands and massage it into the desired area of the body.
