Benefits of Spruce Oil

Spruce oil has potent antibacterial, anti-infectious, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, antiviral, antiseptic, disinfectant, expectorant, and stimulant properties. It works wonders for respiratory ailments, wound healing, viral infections, arthritis, rheumatism, and other forms of muscle aches and pains.

Since spruce oil positively affects many systems in the body, particularly the endocrine system, it’s no surprise that it can deliver a wide range of well-documented health benefits, which include helping in: (1)

Stimulating and fortifying the immune system
Controlling some cases of hyperthyroidism
Regulating the adrenal hormone to help the body deal with stress and “fight-or-flight” situations
Relieving respiratory tract infections like asthma or bronchitis
Working as an expectorant to relieve mucus
Fighting off fatigue, including nervous exhaustion and chronic fatigue
Soothing skin conditions, such as dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, and seborrhea dermatitis
Calming skin outbreaks triggered by hormonal imbalance or stress

How Does Spruce Oil Work?

Because of its soothing components, spruce oil is frequently used in massages, saunas, and steam baths.

Spruce oil may be used topically, inhaled directly through aromatherapy, or as a tonic. Some oils that complement spruce oil well include cedarwood, clary sage, galbanum, lavender, oakmoss, pine, and rosemary. (2)

In cases when you or someone in your family is suffering from muscle aches, painful joints, poor circulation, strains, and sprains, I highly recommend that you use spruce oil topically with a milder carrier oil. Combining spruce oil with helichrysum oil, which is known for its toning properties, is suggested to help soothe injuries to the muscles, ligaments, and tendons while speeding up healing and preventing the formation of unsightly scars.
