Essential Oils and High Blood Pressure
Let's take a basic look at what high blood pressure is first. High blood pressure is when pressure is on the arteries and the blood vessels become too high and the arterial wall distorts causing stress on the heart.
When people let their blood pressure go without some treatment, they become at risk for heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and more. Sadly, many people do not even realize they suffer from high blood pressure until a serious problem shows up.
Rose essential oil has a wonderful ability to increase blood circulation. Which can help lower high blood pressure.
Lemon essential oil has so many wonderful properties! Lemon balm essential oil decreases blood pressure, helps with heart palpitations, tachycardia, and even lessons risks of heart attack. It also restores balance to emotions, increases mood and has strong antidepressant properties.
