Natural Remedies: Essential Oils for Cuts
Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts that capture the plant’s scent and flavor, or “essence.” The extraction process involves distillation or mechanical methods, such as cold pressing, to obtain the purest form of the plant’s natural oils. Each essential oil has unique compounds that contribute to its characteristic fragrance and therapeutic properties. When it comes to wound care, essential oils can offer antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic benefits.
