Aromatherapy blends using Turmeric essential oil

To fight off colds / flu

To boost your immunity during cold and flu season try vapourising a few drops of Turmeric oil in a diffuser to strengthen immunity and fight off infection.

If already suffering with a cough or cold try a steam inhalation with 3-4 drops of Turmeric to relieve congestion and combat infection. Inhale the therapeutic vapours for 5-10 minutes.

To aid concentration, focus and memory

Diffuse 3 drops Tumeric essential oil, 2 drops Rosemary and 1 drop May Chang (Litsea cubeba) in an aroma diffuser. Alternatively pop the same blend into an Aromatherapy Inhaler and sniff as and when required.

For muscle and joint paint with inflammation

Mix 30ml of carrier oil or moisturising cream or lotion with 3 drops Turmeric oil, 2 drops Myrrh and 2 drops Frankincense and massage into affected areas up to 3 times per day.

For dry, cracked heels or hands

Blend 30ml or your chosen carrier oil with 4 drops Turmeric oil and 2 drops Peppermint. Apply generously up to 2 times per day to the hands or feet (ideally after bathing when the skin is softened) to moisturise the skin and promote healing. It will help to regularly file off any hard / dead skin before applying this treatment.

For a healthier complexion

For a more youthful, clearer complexion blend 5ml of a suitable carrier oil (try Argan, Jojoba or Rosehip) with 3 drops of Turmeric oil. This can be helpful for fighting acne and blemishes and reducing the appearance of fine line, wrinkles or scars. Note: Do not apply to broken skin.
