Spearmint Essential Oil is a somewhat more subtle oil than peppermint because it contains significantly less menthol, but can be used for similar fragrance applications. I especially enjoy incorporating Spearmint Oil into blends intended for easing headaches or stress.

Noted for its wonderfully uplifting and gentle, encouraging scent, Spearmint Essential Oil is wonderful for children and those looking for a milder mint experience.

Spearmint essential oil may help with :

  • helping to gentle aggressive mood

  • headaches & stress issues

  • digestive issues

  • respiratory problems

  • nausea, motion sickness

  • helping to focus the mind

100% Pure Spearmint Essential Oil (Mentha spicata) 10 ml = approx 200 drops

  • Pure Spearmint essential oil is recommended for all ages to assist with nausea, digestive, respiratory issues & mood enhancement

Spearmint pure essential oil can be used for Asthma, Exhaustion, Fever, Flatulence, Headache, Nausea, Scabies and Vertigo

The fresh, clean aroma of Spearmint Essential Oil blends well with other essential oils including peppermint, rosemary, basil, bay laurel, orange and lavender

  • Diffuse: Add 5 to 10 drops to your chosen essential oil or blend to the diffuser or oil burner. Experiment with different combinations of oils and blends.  Don't forget to write each blend into a dedicated notebook along with your feedback. That way you'll get to know which blends are the most effective for you.
  • Bath: Do not add undiluted essential oils to your bathwater. Oil and water do not mix. Instead mix 3 to 5 drops of your chosen essential oils or blends  with a drop of shampoo/ detergent or in 20 ml (1 tablespoon) of full cream milk. Add this emulsion to the bathwater and slip in. The essential oils emulsifies in shampoo / detergent / milk and so distributes them more evenly throughout the bathwater.
  • Warm Compress: Place 1 drop of essential oil into a small bowl of warm water. Soak a washcloth in the water and wring out well. Place the washcloth over the face with eyes closed and relax, Repeat as needed. Do not exceed 1 drop of essential oil and use with caution when using strong essential oils and blends like Moon Haven's Clove, Cinnamon, Thieves Essential oils and blends.
  • Steam Shower Inhalation: Enjoy an aromatherapy shower by placing 3 to 5 drops of your choice of essential oils and /or blends on a washcloth on the floor of your shower. Turn off the fan and enjoy the essential oil laden steam while you shower. (Note: Do not place essential oils directly onto the shower tiles as the oils may break down the tile glaze)
  • Massage Oil: Create your own massage medium oil or cream. Use Moon Haven's Essential Oil Dilutions Chart to calculate the correct number of essential oil drops to add to your chosen carrier oil or massage cream. enjoy!
  • Direct Inhalation: Sometimes we just need a quick pick me up and that can mean just opening up your favourite essential oil or blend and taking a quick whiff. Alternatively, if you find the scent from an open bottle a little too strong for you, just smell the bottle cap. The result will be a gentler, more subtle fragrance.

THE SPEARMINT ESSENTIAL OIL STORY

The essential oils from the mint family are wonderful for helping to deal with respiratory, digestive and pain issues and traditionally the go to oil is Peppermint.  
Yet for many the scent of Peppermint Essential Oil is too aggressive. It is strong and overpowering for some.

The Gentler Mint
This is where Spearmint Essential Oil comes into its own. Being a gentler form of mint, the sweeter scent of Spearmint oil makes it much more appealing to younger children and those sensitive to scent.

It doesn't have peppermint's sledge hammer effect, but seems to cosy up and address issues in a much more encompassing and holistic way.

Where Spearmint Essential Oil is a somewhat more subtle oil than peppermint (because it contains significantly less menthol), it can be used for similar fragrance applications.
