Juniper Berry Essential Oil

Country of Origin: Serbia;  Botanical Name: Juniperus communis;  Method of Extraction: Steam Distillation

Juniper berry is a powerful immune system booster and detoxifier.  Juniper berry plants have a long history of helping prevent illnesses and during the Medieval period, juniper berries were believed to help ward off witches. In fact, for years European hospital wards burned juniper and rosemary to help protect patients against lingering infections.

The fresh scent of juniper berries offers emotional support and can reduce physical and emotional signs of stress. Considered in folklore as a natural anxiety remedy, some researchers argue it’s one of the most effective essential oils for dealing with inner trauma and pain. This may be due to juniper berry's positive effects on brain relaxation responses when inhaled.

Studies have examined the effects of juniper berry on insomniacs who were taking medication for their condition, researchers found that almost 90% of the subjects were able to reduce their drug dosage when using the essential oil. As a sleep aid, use juniper berry essential oil at home by diffusing it or, combined with a carrier oil, dabbing some on your wrists and the soles of your feet.
