Artemesia oil also promotes menstrural flow, reduces fever and acts as a general tonic. Since Artemesia Oil contains a narcotic, it has value in reducing pain and in soothing troubled emotions. It also enhances sexual desire and stimulates the imagination.

Artemesia Oil Contra Indications

If the Artemesia Oil contains a substance known as Thujone, it is contraindicated for pregnant and breast feeding women.  There is a possibility that it could cause damage to kidneys and could worsen seizure disorders. It could create an allergic reaction in people who are sensitive to the allergens in ragweed and related plants.

Essential Oils are natural, contracted oils that have the fragrance of the plant from which they originated. Most typically, the oils are extracted from the plant through distillation. In many cases, the distillation process involves the use of steam.  As steam passes through the plant’s stems, seeds, flowers or leaves, it assists in vaporizing the volatile compounds.

While essential oils have various uses, they have a long documented history of medicinal value. Essential Oils can support overall health, act as a treatment or remedy for various medical or psychological conditions or help prevent infections and illness.

Essential Oils should not be used on animals as they can have adverse effects.
