Helichrysum continues to climb in price but some say this is one of the very best available.
Helichrysum italicum from Corsica, steam distilled, organic - from the flowers. True therapeutic quality • Middle note • Sweet, warmly herbaceous, pleasantly complex Aromatherapy use: There are many Helichrysum species available, with the italicum variety, sub-species 'serotinum', considered the most important in aromatherapy. Known for it's regenerative 'ketones', it is included in many skin formulas for wrinkle and scar reduction - effective at low concentrations, a little goes a long way.
with herbal undertones useful for bruses, burns, scars, More anti-inflammatory than German Chamomile, more tissue regenerating than Lavender, more cicatrisant (helping the formation of scar tissue) than Frankincense.
Along with Frankincense, Myrrh, Spikenard, and Rose, Helichrysum ranks as one of the most ancient and valuable healing substances. It heals physical and emotional scarring, opens the heart, connects body and spirit, and opens human beings to spiritual life.
Use Helichrysum for: Wounds and scar tissue - Helichrysum is the oil of choice for healing scar tissue, whether from a recent wound, operation, or tissue that has been scarred for years.

Helichrysum is also very effective for joint pain associated with Rheumatoid arthritis.
Bruises, sprains, and twisted ankles
Here's why this essential oil works so well.
50% of Helichrysum italicum is made up of anti-inflammatory Sesquiterpenes,
another 40% is made up of Esters which have a marked relaxing effect on tissues- relieving tension in injured areas and allowing natural perfusion to take place. The third major component is a di-ketone, which signals tissues to regenerate.
The di-ketones are rare and Helichrysum contains the highest know percentage.
For best results apply right away after an acute injury.
Be sure to seek proper medical attention and discuss the use of this therapy with your doctor.
It is anti-inflammatory with pain reducing and analgesic effects. Use in a massage oil with other pain relieving oils like Lavender and Yarrow which is also anti-inflammatory.
Skin care products - Add Helichrysm to skin care products for its skin-rejuvenating properties. It also has remarkable effects on sensitive and inflamed skin.
Healing of emotional scarring - Add to a blend for diseases where there is an emotional etiology, particularly addictions and heart disease. Use in counseling to bring to the surface feelings that have been denied.
Addictions - This oil helps one detox from alcohol, drugs, and nicotine, releasing the body and mind from addictive patterns. Make a blend to diffuse or to rub on the heart area.
Coronary complaints & phlebitis - Helichrysum opens the flow of subtle heart energies. Rub a blend on the heart area. Its anti-inflammatory and tissue regenerating properties also help repair swollen or weak veins.
Spiritual growth - Helichrysum's ability to heal emotional scarring, enhance the flow of subtle heart energy, and connect the body with spirit makes it an invaluable aid for spiritual growth.

Steam distilled, this is 100% pure essential oil, not a carrier oil. Hemp essential oil has only a trace of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) which is the alkaloid that is regulated. It is said to be relaxing to muscles. Hemp essential oil should not be confused with hemp oil, which is produced through a different process from the seeds and is considered a fixed oil.
The aroma is strong, earthy and almost harsh and evolves into milder herbal middle notes, still earthy-green until the lower notes become earthy, peppery and faintly sweet.
