Frankincense Oil
Frankincense oil is a precious and aromatic essential oil derived from the resin of the Boswellia tree, specifically Boswellia sacra or Boswellia carterii. With a rich history dating back thousands of years, frankincense oil has been treasured for its captivating fragrance, spiritual significance, and wide range of potential health benefits.
The process of obtaining frankincense oil involves carefully extracting the resin from the tree bark and then steam distilling it to produce the oil. This results in a highly concentrated and potent oil known for its unique woody, balsamic, and slightly citrusy aroma.
Frankincense oil is valued for its anti-inflammatory properties, which can help alleviate minor aches and pains. It is commonly used topically, when properly diluted with a carrier oil, to soothe sore muscles, joints, and provide relief from discomfort.
