Kunzea oil - breathe easy!

'Pain relieving' and 'anti-inflammatory' are the two key properties that people think about most when it comes to Kunzea Ambigua oil, and its use in products for issues such as arthritis and muscle soreness.
But did you know that it has other helpful properties as well - such as relieving respiratory symptoms?
Some of Kunzea oil’s primary constituents, such as alpha-pinene and 1-8 cineole, are known to be effective bronchodilators when inhaled. This means they can help to open up the airways to assist with respiratory conditions; from cold and flu symptoms, to studies showing benefits for conditions such as asthma and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease).
Using Kunzea oil in a room diffuser or vaporiser can be one way to enjoy these benefits.
Another tip (especially in the winter months), is adding some Kunzea oil to hot water in a bowl, putting a towel over your head and breathing deeply to help clear the sinuses.
A full body warm bath with our relieving bath flakes or Kunzea oil is also a great option.
You can use our products (eg roll on liniment or soothe oil) to rub on your chest or neck when unwell. Some people also dab a drop of Kunzea oil at the base of each nostril to inhale (do a patch test somewhere else first).
However you choose to use our oil and products, remember they can be helpful for a whole range of things!
