Description
Elemi essential oil is extracted by steam distillation of the oleoresin of the tropical Canarium luzonicum tree. The raw material is found inside the bark and is produced as long as the tree is healthy and has leaves. Elemi comes from the Burseraceae family, the same family that includes frankincense and myrrh oils - they share many properties and benefits, as the long history of use in cosmetic and medicinal products certainly shows.

It supports the body during infections, especially those involving the upper respiratory tract, relieving persistent coughs and cold symptoms. It exhibits antiseptic action, cleans small wounds and accelerates the regeneration of damaged skin. It soothes inflammation, soothes tired muscles and joints, reduces painful symptoms and swelling.
