Ginger oil is a steam-distilled or cold-pressed concentrate from ginger root. Applied to the skin (always diluted), it helps soothe minor muscle and joint aches. Diffused, its warming scent can lift focus and energy.
Because this extract is far stronger than powdered or raw ginger, a little goes a long way. People sometimes take it internally for digestive comfort, such as settling occasional nausea, but internal use demands careful measurement and expert guidance.
Undiluted ginger oil can burn or irritate skin. Keep it away from eyes and sensitive areas. Quality and purity vary by source, so pick a trusted product.
