Pine oil is an essential oil
obtained by the steam distillation of needles, twigs
and cones from a variety of species of pine, particularly
Pinus sylvestris.
It is used in aromatherapy, as a scent in
incense, bath oils,
as a cleaning product, and as a lubricant in small and
expensive clockwork instruments. It is naturally deodorizing,
and antibacterial. It may also be used varyingly as
a disinfectant, massage oil and an antiseptic.
The key uses of pine oil are as an anti-infectious,
antimicrobial agent in colds, flu, urinary and viral
infections. Add a few drops of essential oil of pine
to your cleaning solution to disinfect kitchen and bathroom
surfaces, while enjoying that fresh pine scent that
can not be duplicated by commercial pine cleaners. To
help disinfect and clear the air in your home during
cold and flu season, use pine oil in aroma lamps and
aromatherapy room diffusers.
Pine has a long history of use as
a pain reliever in arthritis, aches, pains and sore
muscles. In Switzerland, mattresses are filled with
pine needles for treating rheumatic ailments. Take it
from a woman who has had arthritis for most of my life,
pine oil makes a wonderful addition to any arthritis
pain massage rub, and is great for sore muscles too.
Do be sure to dilute it properly with a carrier oil,
as pine can be irritating to the skin.
