Camphor
(Cinnamomum Camphora)
Camphor is typically a large evergreen tree that produces camphor oil through steam distillation of its wood. The oil is a clear to pale yellow liquid with a fresh, woody, and slightly medicinal aroma.
Camphor has been integral to traditional medicine in Asia for centuries. It is well-known for its use in balms and liniments for soothing respiratory issues and muscle pain. Camphor oil is also used as a moth repellent and a preservative due to its strong aroma and antiseptic properties. It is an active ingredient in our Joint & Muscle Pain Relief Oil, Menstrual Pain Relief Oil and Headache Relief Roll On that helps in pain relief.
From China
Camphor trees thrive in warm and humid environments, where they can grow to a significant height, providing their characteristic wood for extraction.
