Myrtle Essential Oil (Myrtus communis)
Myrtle essential Oil has a clear, fresh, herbaceous scent somewhat similar to
eucalyptus. Supportive of the respiratory system, skin, and hair, it has been
researched for its effects on glandular imbalances and its soothing effects when
inhaled. It is also helpful for meditation and lifting the spirit.*
Most essential oils work best when blended
with each other. The right combination will enhance the effects and power of the
essential oils. For some basic "oil recipes", check out our Recipe page or visit

Thyroid Issues "I studied the testimonials on Oil-testimonials.com about thyroid conditions and
I learned about using Myrtle oil. My problem has been being sleepy all the time.
Just placing Myrtle on my arches and EndoFlex on my big toe has been very
helpful. Before I go to sleep, I add Lavender Oil for relaxation."
Chronic Sinus Infection
"My eleven year old daughter has had chronic sinus since about nine months old.
I began putting a little Myrtle on her forehead and cheeks and it has helped her
a lot. Since then I have suggested it to numerous people that come in to the
aromatherapy store where I work, and they have all come back to say it has
worked."
Thyroid, again
"I was diagnosed with thyroiditis. My pulse was very fast and I was so tired.
The MD gave me medication to slow my heart rate but I didn't take it. I looked
in the ESO book and found to use myrrh and myrtle which I applied to the vita
flex points. My pulse returned to normal. Then the TSH was elevated so I started
on the Thyromin instead of the medication I was given. The next blood work
showed it was back to normal and I have been feeling fine. I take two Thyromin
capsules every day."
Did you know....
Myrtle is considered the sacred plant of the goddess Aphrodite,

brides today still wear Myrtle as a symbol of innocence.
