No other essential oil beats the effectiveness of Melissa for helping you cope emotionally after receiving a shock or when you are feeling spiritually low. As a blended massage oil or used in the bath, Melissa oil can help ease fever, headaches, depression, or if you're feeling jittery and stressed-out, and will also settle upset stomachs and combat nausea. The price is so high because there is so little essential oil produced from the plant, and unfortunately because of this some suppliers do adulterate Melissa with a cheaper oil but ours is the real thing. You will only need to use one or two drops in your blend as it is so powerful. |
