The Latin name for Chamomile is Anthemis Nobilis. This herb is excellent for skin problems like acne, eczema, rashes, wounds, dermatitis, dry/itchy skin and allergies. The part of the plant used for essential oil is the flower, and stem distillation is the method of extraction
Suggested usage
Roman chamomile yields an essential oil that is light blue when fresh. Extraction is from the flower and upper parts of the plant.
It has excellent calming properties and eases irritation, impatience, PMS, and other menstrual and menopausal problems.
Roman chamomile is an evergreen with a fresh apple scent and is mainly grown in France, Belgium, and Eastern Europe.
It is said to be good for abdominal pain, gall bladder problems, and throat infections, and helps relieve allergies, hay fever, and asthma.
This oil is useful in diluted solutions to calm children suffering from colic, irritability, diarrhoea, and teething. In a vaporiser, it soothes headaches, nervous complaints, and migraines. While this oil is gentle enough for use with children and babies, always consult an expert before administering it.
