What is Le Comptoir Aroma Organic Ginger Essential Oil 5ml used for?
Rheumatism, headaches... Ginger is a precious ally for relieving inflammation and pain! Why? "Because it prevents the production of prostaglandins, hormones which are precursors to inflammatory mechanisms". Ginger belongs to the Zingiberaceae botanical family, and its producing organ is the rhizome. Le Comptoir Aroma Organic Ginger Essential Oil is suitable for diffusion, massage, bath and oral use.
Le Comptoir Aroma Organic Ginger Essential Oil is indicated for colds and motion sickness, as it reduces nausea and also treats digestive disorders. Ginger Organic Essential Oil is used in massages for joint or muscle stiffness (sprains, dislocations, torticollis, strains, etc.). It can also be used as a mouthwash for toothache.
The gingerols and shogaols contained in ginger act directly on the mucous membrane of the stomach, making it an effective remedy against nausea and vomiting. This antiemetic action is particularly useful for relieving post-operative nausea.
The α-zingiberene stimulates gastric secretions and intestinal peristalsis, promoting better digestion. In addition, the citrals present in ginger essential oil reduce intestinal spasms, relieving abdominal pain and improving intestinal transit.
