With a distinctively woodsy aroma that conjures up the scent of the great outdoors as well as the winter holiday season, Balsam Fir Essential Oil not only makes a wonderful addition to holiday blends but also has many year-round uses. Steam distilled from the needles of Balsam Fir trees, this essential oil has an uplifting yet soothing effect, making it an excellent oil for calming muscles and joints after a long day or intense workout. When diffused or diluted in a carrier oil and applied topically to the chest, Balsam Fir Essential Oil helps support a healthy respiratory system. Additionally, Balsam Fir is widely used by many for its emotional balancing and soothing effects.
