CYPRESS

Cypress essential oil is derived from the twigs and leaves of the Cypress tree (Cupressus sempervirens), a coniferous tree native to the Mediterranean region. The oil is extracted through steam distillation, capturing the fresh, crisp, and slightly woody aroma of the tree. Cypress oil has been used for centuries in various cultures for its medicinal properties, especially in traditional European medicine and aromatherapy.

This essential oil is often favored for its uplifting, cleansing, and energizing qualities. It is recognized for its strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and is commonly used to support the respiratory system, improve circulation, and promote relaxation.

Cypress oil is often used to improve respiratory function by opening up the airways and relieving congestion. It has a decongestant and expectorant effect, which helps to clear mucus and phlegm from the lungs and throat, making it effective for treating conditions like coughs, bronchitis, and sinus infections.
