#Cedar wood Essential Oil 雪松精油#
Cedarwood essential oil has a warm woody aroma and is extracted from the needles, leaves, bark and berries of the cedar tree. There are also many species of cedar trees found around the world. But they are all evergreen conifers from the Cupressaceae family.
Cedarwood essential oil has been used in various cultures and traditions for centuries. Once used by the ancient Egyptians for embalming, the cedar tree was used by the Indians to build temples and altars, and by the Native Americans as part of rituals, this woody, earthy and slightly sweet essential oil remains a favorite of many to this day .
Usually this cedar tree is grown from waste wood or sawdust, shavings, stumps of evergreen trees up to 50 meters in the high altitude cold regions of northern India, Afghanistan and Pakistan Himalayas. It is also a very long-lived tree, with some trees being around 900 years old.
Highly valued and sought after in the woodlands of northern India, cedar trees are one of the most valuable and durable woods. The name comes from Sanskrit and means "wood of the gods". Cedar Grove is a shrine to many religious activities and their families. Today, Himalayan cedar (Cedrus deodara) is one of the four major species of cedar in the world. Other tree species are Atlas cedar (Cedrus atlantica), Texas cedar (Juniperus mexicana), and Virginia cedar (Juniperus virginiana).

❇️Reference of use:
Steaming method:
(Available with sprayer/burner and diffuser) Fill these utensils with water and add 5-10 drops of essential oil. Light the candle or turn on the power, and as the water heats up, the pure essential oil will diffuse into the air to help eliminate odor and sterilization, purify the air space, improve the surrounding environment, absorb through the respiratory system, and make people feel happy.
Bathing method:
Add 5-10 drops of essential oil in a warm water bath (not too hot, it will evaporate quickly), (for people with sensitive skin and those who need moisturizing effects, it is recommended to mix and dilute the essential oil with 10ml of base oil before use.) Bath 10 - About 20 minutes will do. It is recommended to close the doors and windows to avoid evaporation too fast, relax and take a deep breath to achieve a double effect.
Massage method:
Add 5-6 drops of essential oil to every 10ml of carrier oil. Mix well and massage into skin for potency.
Direct inhalation method:
Add 3-5 drops of essential oil to a basin of steaming water (note the heat 🔥) Cover your head with a large towel, close your eyes, lean on the basin, and breathe deeply for about 5 minutes.
Cold/Hot compress method:
Put 3-6 drops of pure essential oil into hot and cold basin water, soak it with a towel after mixing, wring it dry, and apply it on the area to be applied, and add a thin plastic cloth on the outer layer to prevent the heat from losing too quickly.

To avoid possible skin sensitivity, dilute prior to topical application.
Avoid contact with eyes, inside ears and sensitive areas.

通常这种雪松树是在印度北部、阿富汗和巴基斯坦喜马拉雅地区的高海拔寒冷地区高达50米的常绿乔木的废木料或锯末、刨花、树桩生长而成。也是一种非常长寿的树，有些树的树龄可达 900 年左右。

参考使用方法：
蒸薰法：
（可用喷雾器/燃烧器和扩散器）将这些具器装满水并加入 5-10 滴精油。 点亮蜡烛或打开电源，随着水的升温，纯精油会弥漫到空气中帮助消除导味杀菌、净化空气空间、改善周围的环境、通过呼吸系统来吸收，令人心情愉悦。
沐浴法：
在温水浴中（不能太热，会很快蒸发掉）加入5-10滴精油，（对于敏感肌肤和需要保湿效果的人，建议将精油与10ml基础油混合稀释后再使用。） 浸浴10-20分钟左右即可。 见议把门窗关上，以免蒸发太快，放松并深呼吸，达到双重效果。
按摩方法：
每10ml基底油中加入5-6滴精油。 充分混合并按摩至皮肤，发挥効力。
直接吸入法：
将一盆热气腾腾的水中加入3-5滴精油（注意热🔥） 将大毛巾覆盖在头部，闭上眼睛，靠在盆上， 不停深呼吸大约5分钟左右。
冷/热敷法：
将3-6滴純精油滴入冷热盆水中，混合后用一条毛巾浸湿，绞干，敷在需敷部位，外层加一层薄塑料布，防热气流失太快。
