    LEMON BALM (MELISSA) – 5 mL

    $15.95

    Melissa (Lemon Balm) is probably the most studied of the essential oils for its affect on people who have Alzheimer’s disease, and it is very likely one of the most effective.

    Melissa is a delightful, lemony-scented essential oil with strong antiviral properties. Psychologically, it has a sedative effect, easing anxiety, stress, and nervous conditions, and helps achieve a good night’s sleep.

    Lemon Balm

    Melissa Offincinalis

    Aroma:
    sweet, fresh and citrus-like smell and is pale yellow in color and has a watery viscosity.

    Description:
    Melissa offincinalis is from the Mediterranean region and grows to about 60 cm (2 feet). It likes soil with a high iron content and has small serrated slightly hairy leaves and small white-pink flowers.
    The flowers are very attractive to bees; the name ‘Melissa’ is the Greek word for honeybee and is also know as “lemon balm’ or in Hebrew ‘Bal-Smin” meaning ‘Chief of oils.’
    In the 14th century it was included in tonic water made by the French Carmelite nuns and Paracelsus (1493 – 1541) called this herb ‘The Elixir of life’ while John Evelyn (1620 -1706) described it as “sovereign for the brain, strengthening the memory, and powerfully chasing away melancholy”.

    Physical:
    It can settle the digestive system, helps with nausea, flatulence, vomiting, dyspepsia and dysentery and has a cooling effect on fevers. It can help with headaches and migraines associated with colds.When treatment is started in the early stages, it can also be used as a topical treatment for cold sores (herpes simplex).

    Psychological:
    calms the nerves and has excellent qualities in fighting depression. Its sedative effect is well documented.

    Major biochemical compounds:
    trans-ocimene, cis-ocimene, 3-octanone, methyl hepenone, cis-3-hexenol, 3-octanol, 1-octen-3-ol, copaene, citronellal, linalool, b-bourbonene, caryophyllene, a-humulene, neral, germacrene-D, geranial, geranyl acetate, d-cadinene, y-cadinene, nerol and geraniol.

    Method of use:
    Essential oils can be used in a variety of methods of application and/or inhalation. Massage, bath, diffusion–there are endless opportunities for using Oshadhi genuine and authentic essential oils. For guidelines, see our Aromatherapy page.

    Considerations:

    • Melissa oil is non-toxic but could cause sensitization and irritation and should always be used in low dilutions. For this reason it should be avoided during pregnancy and by people with a very sensitive skin.

    1. Bonita – December 13, 2017

      I need that Lemon Balm

      I need that Lemon Balm. It really works. My mother is able to do things she hasn’t done for a long time. All of her caregivers noticed a difference in her within a week. Thank you!

    WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

    • I just received a parcel of games, books and puzzles I ordered from you online. It only took a few days to get here which is pretty amazing. I think I wait longer than that for things to be delivered within my own country! But I digress, I wanted to say thank you very much. My mother is now going through the box, I’ve not seen her so animated in a while. She’s in the later stages of Alzheimer’s/Dementia and spends a lot of her time just sitting around not doing much and I’ve found it extremely difficult to find things that are suitable to keep her occupied and engaged. So much of what she used to be able to do and enjoy is now beyond her and although she tries, it just creates frustration for her. This cache of goodies looks like it’s going to be the solution, thank you Joanna Carter
