Marjoram essential oil is a wonderful oil. It is steam distilled from the leaf. It's top properties are antibacterial, antifungal, antispasmodic, digestive stimulant, and a sedative.
Marjoram essential oil can be used aromatically, internally, and topically. Please verify the use of the oil on the bottle that you purchased. If it is a lower quality oil, it will not be safe for internal use.
Marjoram essential oil is a versatile oil. It can be used for digestive issues, muscular issues, respiratory issues, fungal issues and more.
Common uses for Marjoram essential oil are boils, bronchitis, carpal tunnel, cold sores, colic, constipation, croup, headaches, high blood pressure, migraines, muscle aches & pains, muscular fatigue, muscular spasms, pancreatitis, and ringworm.
For topical applications, I strongly recommend that you dilute with a carrier oil to increase the area of application, reduce evaporation of the essential oil, and to protect your skin from sensitivity. If it is for a muscular issue, I suggest using a heating pad on the area after you apply the diluted essential oil. It helps penetrate the oils into your muscles. I like to use Marjoram, Lemongrass and Cinnamon together for muscular issues. Cinnamon is a hot oil, so you must dilute heavily.
For internal use, please verify that the essential oil you purchased is safe for ingesting. To ingest you would put a few drops in a veggie cap. If you are using marjoram to reduce your high blood pressure, I suggest using a veggie cap with 2 drops marjoram and 2 drops lemongrass.
Safety Precautions: I strongly recommend diluting marjoram with a carrier oil, particularly for sensitive skin. If you are pregnant, please consult your physician before using.
As always, please do your own research! Please ensure that you are purchasing your oils from a reputable company that does extensive testing to verify the quality and purity of the essential oils.
This is my journey to incorporating essential oils use into my daily life to reduce my toxic load and assist my body to heal itself naturally. There are different grades of essential oils and I strongly recommend that you find one that is a pure therapeutic grade. Essential oils can be used aromatically, topically, and internally. I am a strong advocate of combining modern medicine and essential oils.
