Plai Essential Oil Wild Harvest

Botanical name Zingiber cassumunar /Steam Distilled-rhizome
Wild Harvest/Thialand

Thai massage therapists have long been regarding Plai Essential Oil as one of those oils necessary to successfully rejuvenate and restore joint and muscle imbalances. Although Plai is in the same family as Ginger, Plai's properties are more intense, thereby the ease of pain and suffering may be profound. Plai is said to be the only essential oil known to relieve pain in and of itself.

Plai essential oil stands out from other members of the ginger family because it’s cooling (not warming, like other ginger oils). Plai is of the same family as ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) but has different properties and more intense actions.

The essential oil of Zingiber cassumunar (Plai oil) has antimicrobial properties that have been shown to be effective in fighting infection, and it can also be helpful for respiratory problems such as asthma, catarrh, chronic colds and flu.
