Next time you’re in the U.S. South, check out the stately cypresses that line the coastal landscapes. Aside from their soothing appearance, these lovely trees also produce an essential oil that can soothe your nerves and benefit your overall health.
Cypresswood is made from the twigs, stems and leaves of the cypress tree. Typically sold as an essential oil, cypress wood has a light, woody, clean and green scent that is faint yet soothing.
Despite its subtlety, cypress wood essential oil can counteract unpleasant body odor and is an important ingredient in many natural deodorants. The oil is also commonly used in diffusers to added a pleasant, “outdoorsy” scent to your living space.
Cypresswood also offers many health benefits. It works as an antibacterial, antimicrobial and antifungal. The essential oil, which contains the anti-congestive molecule camphene, is used in cough syrups and lozenges and can be used to treat coughs and soothe sore throats.
Cypresswood oil is also a common treatment for warts caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and can treat many skin conditions. Consumers turn to cypress wood to help heal cuts and wounds, obscure varicose veins and alleviate acne.
The essential oil from cypress wood also is used to relieve muscle pain, body swelling and general discomfort. It’s also a common element in aromatherapeutic massage that can help heal both mind and body.
