The Benefits Of Using Essential Oils For Skin And Hair
When using essential oils for skin and hair, there can be many different benefits. It does depend on the oil you use and the methods of applying essential oils – we recommend seeking advice from your healthcare professional or an aromatherapy specialist to ensure you use the right essential oils properly (and, when using essential oils for health & wellbeing conditions, consult with your healthcare professional if symptoms persist).
Some of the benefits of using essential oils for the skin include:
- Delay in skin ageing
- Antibacterial and antifungal properties
- Act as an anti-inflammatory
- Removal of metabolic wastes
- Improvement of lymph circulation
- Anti-cellulite properties
The benefits of using essential oils for hair can include:
- Promoting hair thickness and growth
- Relieving an itchy scalp
- Reducing hair loss and hair breakage
- Improving hair strength
- Effective dandruff treatment
- Improving hair texture
Using both peppermint oil for hair and peppermint oil for skin is popular as this essential oil has been shown to be particularly effective with multiple benefits. Peppermint oil can penetrate the hair follicles and stimulate blood flow, which can boost growth – it helps soothe and moisturise a dry scalp and can also be used to treat dandruff. Another benefit of using peppermint oil for hair is that it has been shown to be an effective lice treatment.
When it comes to using peppermint oil for the skin, peppermint oil has a soothing effect on your skin, ideal for people who suffer from chronic itching. It also has anti-inflammatory properties which can be effective in treating acne. Peppermint oil for the skin can also be used to disinfect wounds.
Combining Infrared Sauna And Essential Oils For Skin And Hair
There are many health & wellbeing benefits to using infrared saunas regularly. Many who use our saunas report that their skin is much clearer, they sleep better (which helps to maintain a youthful appearance) and sauna sessions are a great opportunity to unplug, unwind and RELAX. Adding essential oils not only enhances your sauna experience, helping you to de-stress & relax but the sauna also creates an environment that enables these essential oils to penetrate the skin more effectively. We include essential oils in our range of accessories including peppermint oil.
