Mentha spicata – an essential oil for digestion, the airways and wellbeing
Spearmint essential oil is obtained by steam distillation of the leaves of the plant Mentha spicata. It has a softer aroma than peppermint and contains less menthol, so it is gentler on the skin and also suitable for use with children. It is used to relax the airways, lift the mood, support digestion and care for the skin. It is a popular essential oil in aromatherapy, natural cosmetics and natural cleaning products.
