Mystic Moments | Wintergreen Essential Oil 100ml - Pure & Natural Oil for Diffusers, Aromatherapy & Massage Blends Vegan GMO Free

This is a very strong scented oil that many will recognise from childhood and either love or hate, I personally love the smell. As for its effectiveness it is very effective but be warned this contains the salicylic acid better known as aspirin and in concentrations greater than you find in the tablets at around 40 tablets worth per 5ml so overuse is easily done! Never use more than 3 or 4 drops and do not use on children given the risks associated with aspirin. That aside back to the scent you will see complaints about it smelling like TCP as some have described well this is because wintergreen is used as the base for many over the counter and prescription medications and creams the most recognisable being germaline it is not TCP as many describe but that is why the confusion. As I say this is an effective oil and it is because it is effective that it still finds its way into many commercial pharmaceutical products still!

Memories of crisp cold mornings running around the rugby field with steaming bodies panting hot breath and smelling of this stuff. Not for me I was the one standing in the dugout with a forged sick note and grateful I didn't have to discover the funny side of getting a dollop of wintergreen smeared on my underwear.Those memories aside I like wintergreen for it's nasal clearing abilities and it gives a lovely fresh smell to liven up my bedroom. I haven't used it on my skin but it has pain relief properties when diluted and and gives a warm feel to aching muscles. Don't use on open cuts or near the eyes.I also use this in my diffuser and mix it with menthol and eucalyptus. Being a "100% pure" oil it won't clog the diffuser.

Never had Wintergreen before & thought I would give it a try. This is very strong, and you only need to use 3-4 drops for a good size room. It has a very 'Green' Fresh smell a bit like Vicks, but without the Eucalyptus element. I primarily use it now to freshen the room just when I feel like a change, and also if I feel a bit stuffy or congested, as it seems to be good for clearing the sinuses& chest if you have had a cough or cold.

My other half has rheumatoid arthritis (and is unable to take NSAIDs like ibuprofen because he has gut issues) and I have back and knee problems.Diluted with fractionated coconut oil - and used sparingly - this has been a very good way of easing joint pain when applied at the source of the inflammation, it is absorbed quickly by the skin and works pretty well for mild-to-moderate pain.Don't eat it - or use it too often - and read up on salicylate poisoning to ensure you avoid it and this will probably be a good oil for any herbalist to keep handy.

My horse had a back problem which was not improving despite the best efforts of the vet. I suddenly remembered this old countryman's remedy, but could only find it online. It was cheap and arrived very quickly. I followed the instructions on diluting the oil and rubbed it into the area twice a day. I ntriced a difference within 4 days and after a fortnight the injury had recovered completely. I've since given it to friends with arthritic knees etc and they have benefitted; I'm really glad I remembered a traditional remedy that young people don't seem to have heard of.

No instructions so not sure what to expect, it says about burning the skin but doesnt heat up.

I use this Wintergreen Essential Oil, with a flax seed base and Chilli Seed Essential oil, for muscular pain relief - truly effective.I have purchased several essential oils from this company and found them to be of good quality.They are very competitively priced and are one of my top two suppliers of essential oils.All of the items I have ordered arrived very promptly and were packaged well.All come in brown glass bottles with a dropper.

Strong medicinal scent which I can tolerate (my friend doesn't). However, it did not make the slightest difference to the pain I have due to Quervain's tenosynovitis

Love this stuff. I always avoided aromatherapy because we have so many different allergies competing in the house. It was suggested to me to try a diffuser with helpful scents (ie non-florals for us). I have menthol, eucalyptus and wintergreen from this brand now. The wintergreen is my favourite.

Lo compré para darme masajes en la planta del pie y combinar el tratamiento de frio/calor para unas molestias y el resultado es satisfactorio. Con un aroma que me recuerda al Reflex.

As expected

For some reason this jar was larger than I expected, so that's always nice!I wanted a substitute for Spearmint and this does ok, its not the same, of course.In saying that, if this same company does have Spearmint I will be sure to order from them first.

Había usado otras marcas de wintergreen oil mucho más caras y se nota la diferencia, el efecto de este no tiene compración, es muchísimo más flojo, pero algo apaña. Desde luego por el precio que tiene no se le pueden pedir peras al olmo.
