Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) essential oil is used as a base for most of Madison + Green’s aromatherapy inhaler oil blends, not only for its wonderful aroma, but also for their emotional attributes. Because of its “cooling” effects (due to the fact that it can activate some ion channels), the oil is stress-relieving, uplifting, and refreshing. It can also help balance the emotions and relieve the negative energy built inside of you.
