Cypress is a highly valued plant in ancient medicinal systems, with its name, even coming from the ancient Greek word ‘sempervirens’ meaning ‘live forever’. It has been described as a diuretic. Diuretics are often prescribed in those with circulatory disorders, such as peripheral vascular disease, to prevent and treat oedema (swelling) by removing the water that builds up in tissues when blood is not pumped sufficiently throughout the body.

Black Pepper has anti-inflammatory properties of black pepper may be useful to reduce swelling associated with poor circulation and varicose veins. Furthermore, black pepper is reportedly a circulatory stimulant to reduce sluggish circulation.

How to Use

Essential oils are highly concentrated and should be used with care. The guidance below is a helpful starting point, but we recommend consulting a qualified aromatherapist for personalised advice. Need help? Call us on 01455 251020 or email [email protected]; we’re happy to help.

Inhalation
Undiluted essential oils may be inhaled from a tissue or a pillow (4-6 drops). Alternatively, they can be inhaled from a bowl of hot water (3 or 4 drops) or a diffuser (see table below), but avoid this if asthmatic. Never inhale essential oils directly from the bottle.

Shampoo and Bath Foam
Create unique aromatherapy bath foams or shampoos by mixing up to 30 drops of your own essential oil blend into 100ml of a suitable bath foam base or shampoo base.

Skincare Cream
Essential oils can be added to vegetable-based creams and then developed into facial products or topical creams. Do not add more than 15 drops of essential oil to 50ml of your base cream.

Pregnancy
Essential oils are best avoided during the first months of pregnancy. After the third month, many oils can be used safely and effectively. If in doubt, always consult a qualified aromatherapist. Find out more in our blog, Aromatherapy & Pregnancy
