In Chinese Medicine: Helichrysum is a versatile sweet, relaxant oil used for strongly diffusing constrained Qi and calming the Shen. Its action of circulating Qi and Blood spans an unusually wide range of tense patterns. It shows a marked tropism for the Upper Jiao, and is one of the few oils associated with stagnation of Heart Qi and Blood as well as with diffusing constrained Heart Qi itself. With an equally strong affinity for the Lungs, it is associated with patterns involving Lung Qi constraint, heat, phlegm and wind — and is unusual in being able to cool <em>and</em> moisten the Lungs, something a drying oil such as Blue-gum eucalyptus cannot do.

I have been using this oil for almost five years. It is soothing and healing. I use it daily as a face oil in the evening. It also helped my skin to recover from a horrific dog bite in my nose and surrounding area.
This oil is the most healing and nurturing oil I have ever used. It helped me to heal from a vicious dog bite on my face four years ago and I still use it every night. I am so devoted to this oil.
I love anything from Snow Lotus! Everything is pure and top shelf! I love this as a face oil in the winter. =)
Wonderful topical, very good for cuts, rashes, scrapes – heals with no sting or itch.
I had a wound from 16 of April and was healing very slowly. I started to use a few drops of Helichrysum every day and it is healing a lot better now.
Hello i purchased this EO for Intensity that is often felt in the evenings. It was suggested to be helpful for Anxiety and for help with calming and it does an adequate job but, in my case, at least, by no means removed the almost nightly Intensity.
I call this my medicine cabinet in a bottle! I'm allergic to all antibiotic ointments so I've used this to heal up nasty scrapes as a prevent infection from mountain biking crashes. I'm also allergic to the adhesives in a patch I change twice a week. This oil easily removes the adhesive residue and soothes my irritated skin. I can't live without it!
