Ravensara essential oil is highly effective against viral, infectious and bacterial diseases. Thanks to its immunostimulating properties, it protects the body against influenza, chickenpox, viral hepatitis, whooping cough, infectious mononucleosis, or even angina and other infections affecting the respiratory tract such as sinusitis, bronchitis , colds or coughs. Indeed, it has a strong expectorant power thanks to its fluidifying action on the bronchial secretions. In addition, it will intervene on skin problems such as herpes (facial or genital) and especially shingles since it is an excellent antiviral. Ravensara oil is also stimulating, and will help you fight physical and nervous fatigue. Likewise, stress and insomnia will be overcome by its soothing properties which can also act against joint, rheumatic and muscle pain.
