Miaroma Spearmint Pure Essential Oil is milder scented but similar to that of peppermint essential oil, as it is also thought to provide an energising action. It is produced by steam distillation of the flowering tops and has a sweet minty aroma. It also provides a calming action and said to help soothe the nerves. The art of aromatherapy can be traced back to the great ancient civilisations of Egypt, Greece and Rome where essential oils were valued for their many uses. Aromatherapy oils, such as spearmint, may be used singly or mixed together to create your own blends. Miaroma spearmint oil is 100% pure and natural essential oil, sourced from India. No synthetic ingredients are ever added to any Miaroma essential pure oils.
