Therapeutic properties
Benzoin essential oil is highly appreciated for its remarkable anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, attributed mainly to the presence of esters in its composition. These compounds give the oil significant therapeutic power, acting globally to soothe pain and inflammation. Their calming, antispasmodic effect helps relieve muscle tension and cramps, while their anti-inflammatory action helps reduce inflammatory reactions in tissues, promoting rapid, effective relief.
Expectorant properties
Benzoin resin also contains several terpene acids, giving it expectorant properties. This characteristic makes it a valuable remedy for respiratory ailments such as asthma, bronchitis and coughs. By promoting expectoration of pulmonary secretions, Benzoin essential oil helps to clear the airways and facilitate breathing, thus relieving symptoms associated with respiratory disorders.
