What is Thyme Essential Oil?

Thyme Essential Oil is beneficial for tired muscles, relaxes the mind and purifies the air. The delightful herbal aroma helps you breathe freely again and think clearly.

Benefits

Cares for muscles

Whether you sit behind a desk all day or can be found in the gym daily, your muscles always need some extra care. Thyme Essential Oil is warming and stimulates blood circulation, allowing your muscles to soften and relax. Always process Thyme Essential Oil in a carrier oil before applying it to your skin.

Breathe freely

The scent of Thyme soothes the airways and can help you breathe more freely again. Diffuse the oil in a diffuser and breathe a sigh of relief or process the oil in an ointment that you apply to your chest. If your partner snores a lot, diffusing Thyme Essential Oil can help reduce this.

Relaxes the mind

Thyme has a grounding, reassuring scent that cheers you up and calms you down. Wonderful to diffuse after a long day or for an extra boost when the day seems to last very long. The calming effect of the aroma helps you think clearly again and activates your creative brain.

For oily skin
