Sensation of lighter legs
Traditionally used as a venous and lymphatic decongestant, red myrtle is a great classic of wellness synergies for tired legs (diluted massage, moving from the ankles to the calves).
Respiratory comfort & healthier air
Thanks to its aromatic profile, it is also appreciated in diffusion for a "fresh air" atmosphere and in cold season for a freer breathing sensation.
Digestive well-being (traditional approach)
Its use is sometimes cited as antispasmodic in traditional practices, but the use is done with caution and respecting the recommendations of use.
Dissemination
Pour a few drops into a diffuser, in short sessions (eg 10 minutes), then air out. Ideas for synergies: with Citron (zesty note) or with Ravintsara/Eucalyptus radiata for a cooler atmosphere.
Cutaneous application (always diluted)
Dilute in a vegetable oil (jojoba, sweet almond...). Simple mark: 1 to 2% (≈ 1 to 2 drops per 5 ml of vegetable oil), then massage locally. Avoid the face, eyes, and mucous membranes. Perform a skin test 24–48 hours before the first use.
Internal use:
On medical advice, it can be used to clear the airways (1 drop diluted in a vegetable oil or honey 3 times a day).
