Plant Information

The scientific name of Cypress is Cupressus sempervirens. This tall standing, needle-bearing conifer from deciduous regions, is an evergreen that has small rounded cones with a woody aroma that is very grounding. Many say they reach for Cypress when they need to concentrate. One sniff can create a sense of well-being and is recommended for the home and office to help eliminate fatigue and works as a disinfectant and air purifier. Cypress is said to be a medicinal tree with the ability to remove toxins, fight infection and help the respiratory system.

When Cypress oil is mixed with a carrier oil, externally, it is known to work for restless leg syndrome, treat arthritis, heal carpal tunnel, asthma, bronchitis, cold, cough, and menstrual cramps. Cypress has antiseptic, antispasmodic, antibacterial, stimulating and antirheumatic properties due to its main constituents; alpha-pinene, carene and limonene. An astringent with Cypress essential oil can make skin feel clean, soft and supple and can be used to treat sores, pimples, pustules and skin eruption. Cypress oil is a diuretic so it helps the body remove excess water and salt that can lead to the retention of fluid. Camphene, a component found in Cypress oil, inhibits nine bacteria in all yeast studies, which means it may be a safer alternative to antibiotics known to cause leaky gut syndrome and the loss of probiotics in the body.
