Bergamot Oil

Bergamot oil has even been used in Ayurvedic medicine to soothe acne, skin rashes, sore throats.

On top of its robust historical use in traditional medicine, Bergamot oil is also a popular choice for aromatherapy as it helps to reduce anxiety, stress, and depression. This oil is uplifting, refreshing, and stimulating due to the presence of α-Pinene and Limonene. By inhaling Bergamot oil, the metabolism can be maintained through the enhancing of hormones and fluids that aid digestion and nutrient absorption.
