Melissa officinalis, also known as lemon balm, received the name “Melissa” because of its sweet, fresh, citrus-like fragrance, which was known to attract bees (Melissa is Greek for “honey bee”).
As one of our rarest and most expensive oils, MELISSA has a wide range of health benefits and uses.* MELISSA is used as a flavor in teas and ice cream as well as with some fish dishes.
Because of its positive effect on mood, MELISSA has long been used to calm feelings of tension and nervousness. Diffusing MELISSA at night can help initiate a restful sleep environment and promote emotional well-being.
MELISSA may also help to support a healthy immune system.* MELISSA Essential Oil is also an enhancer and blends well with floral or citrus Essential Oils.
There are some illnesses for which there are no known helpful treatments. The doctor may tell you to go home, rest, and increase your fluids, but there is nothing they can do for you. If you find yourself dealing with a winter sickness that does not trace back to germs, pick up your MELISSA! MELISSA Essential Oil contains monoterpenes that inhibit accumulation of toxins and support discharge of existing toxins in the body. MELISSA also has sequiterpenes that are known to be anti-microbial. Can you see the benefits of this Essential Oil?
