Side-effects of these natural
remedies may include relaxation, improved quality of
life, frequent smiling, laughing, increased vitality,
and a pleasant aroma.
The therapeutic properties of frankincense
oil are antiseptic, astringent, carminative,
cicatrisant, cytophylactic, digestive, diuretic,
emmenagogue, expectorant, sedative, tonic,
uterine, vulnerary and expectorant.
There are numerous species and varieties of frankincense
trees, including Boswellia serrata
in India, Boswellia carteri
in East Africa.
Immune System:
Frankincense Oil is effective as an
antiseptic, and even the fumes or smoke
obtained from burning it have antiseptic and
disinfectant qualities that eliminate the
germs in the space where the smoke filters
out. It can be applied on wounds without any
known side effects to protect them from
tetanus and becoming septic. It is equally
good on internal wounds and protects them from
developing infections.
Oral Health:
Those same antiseptic qualities also make
frankincense oil a useful preventative measure
against oral issues, like bad breath,
toothaches, cavities, mouth sores, and other
infections.
Astringent:
The astringent property of Frankincense Oil
has many benefits, because it strengthens
gums, hair roots, tones and lifts skin,
contracts muscles, intestines and blood
vessels, and thereby gives protection from
premature losses of teeth and hair. This
astringent quality also reduces the appearance
of wrinkles, and combats the loss of firmness
of intestines, abdominal muscles, and limbs
associated with age. Above all, frankincense
acts as a coagulant, helping to stop bleeding
from wounds and cuts. This astringent property
also helps to relieve diarrhea of various
types.
Emenagogue:
Frankincense essential oil reduces obstructed
and delayed menstruation and delays the advent
of menopause. It also helps curing other
symptoms associated with menses and Post
Menstrual Syndrome, such as pain in the
abdominal region, nausea, headache, fatigue,
and mood swings.
Respiratory Issues: It soothes
coughs and
eliminates phlegm deposited in the respiratory
tracts and the lungs. Frankincense essential
oil also provides relief from bronchitis and
congestion of nasal tract, larynx, pharynx,
bronchi, and lungs. Its antidepressant and
anti-inflammatory properties also help relax
the breathing passages, which can reduce the
dangers of asthma attacks, and its antiseptic
qualities are what give it the reputation of
being an immune system booster! It also
eases body pain, headaches, toothaches and
balances the rise in body temperature commonly
associated with colds.
Stress and Anxiety: Frankincense
Oil is very effective as a sedative,
because it induces a feeling of mental peace,
relaxation, satisfaction and spirituality. It
also awakens insight, makes you more
introspective and lowers anxiety, anger and
stress. When feeling anxious or if you
anticipate some sort of stressful episode, add
some frankincense oil to a diffuser or a
vaporizer. Frankincense essential oil promotes
deep breathing and relaxation, which can open
your breathing passages and reduce blood
pressure, moving your mental state back to
calmness. Carminative: Frankincense oil
eliminates gas and prevents it from building
up in the body. This removal of excess gas
from the intestines also gives relief from
associated problems like stomach aches, pain
in the abdominal region and chest, abnormal
amounts of sweating, uneasiness, indigestion
and many other related conditions.
Cicatrisant: This is an
interesting property of Frankincense Oil, and
since skin health and anti-aging are such hot
topics these days, this essential oil has
become even more important! When applied
topically or inhaled, it can makes the scars
and after marks of boils, acne and pox on the
skin fade at a much faster rate. This also
includes the fading of stretch marks, surgery
marks, and fat cracks associated with
pregnancy and delivery of children.
Digestive: Suffering from
indigestion due to that turkey last night? A
patient of chronic indigestion and acidity?
Fed up with those antacids? Then you should
try Frankincense Oil instead. This oil has
digestive properties without any side effects,
and it facilitates digestion the way most
medicines should, unlike common antacids which
only suppress the symptoms. This oil speeds up
the secretion of digestive juices (gastric
juices, bile and acids) in the stomach and
facilitates movement of food through the
intestines by stimulating peristaltic motion.
This means an all-around improvement in the
digestion of food.
Anti-Aging: As a
Cytophylactic, Frankincense Oil promotes
regeneration of healthy cells and also keeps
the existing cells and tissues healthy. When
you combine this aspect of frankincense oil
with its powerful astringent capabilities, you
have a potent anti-aging
quality that frankincense oil is often
used for. It can help you to eliminate sun
spots, remove micro-wrinkles around the eyes
and cheeks, and generally tone and tighten
skin all over your body, while simultaneously
replacing old or dying cells with new, healthy
ones!
Tonic: Overall, frankincense
essential oil tones and boosts health and is
therefore considered a tonic. It benefits all
the systems operating in the body, including
the respiratory, digestive, nervous, and
excretory systems, while also increasing
strength by aiding the absorption of nutrients
into the body. Furthermore, frankincense oil
strengthens the immune system and keeps you
strong and protected for the future.
Diuretic: If you
thought that Lasix and its variants were the
only drugs that could help you release water
from the body through urination, you were
incorrect. Those pharmaceutical options may be
instantaneous, but not very safe. Frankincense
essential oil is a natural and safe
alternative. It promotes urination and helps
you lose that extra water weight, as well as
fats, sodium, uric acid and various other
toxins from the body, with the added advantage
of lowering blood pressure. The best part
about this is that frankincense essential oil
is completely safe and has no adverse side
effects.
Uterine: This oil is very
good for uterine health. Since it regulates
the production of the estrogen hormone, it
reduces the chances of post-menopause tumor or
cyst formation in the uterus, also known as
uterine cancer. In terms of the pre-menopause
period, it keeps a womans uterus healthy by
regulating proper menstrual cycles. It also
treats or regulates gynecologic conditions or
stressors that can lead to complicated
dysfunctions in certain women.
Vulnerary: Simply apply a
diluted solution of this oil on wounds, or use
it blended with a skin cream, and your wounds
will heal faster and be protected from
infections. This oil is equally beneficial in
healing internal wounds, cuts and ulcers.
Other Benefits: It relieves
pain associated with rheumatism and arthritis.
It helps heal boils, infected wounds, acne,
circulatory problems, insomnia and various
types of inflammation.
