In Chinese Medicine: Pungent-green and only mildly warming, Sage is a polycrest restorative with an exceptionally wide range of traditional uses. It essentially addresses a terrain of chronic weakness from Qi or Blood deficiency with resultant accumulation of damp, and it resolves damp in all three Jiao. Note this is common Sage (<em>Salvia officinalis</em>) — distinct from White Sage and from Clary Sage, each of which is a different oil.
Chinese Medicine functions adapted from Peter Holmes, L.Ac., M.H., Channeling Fragrance. The full profile — treatment patterns, acupoint combinations and synergist oils — is in the book.
I just love the Sage Snow Lotus Oil. It smells so heavenly and makes me feel just whole when I diffuse it. It is very grounding and relaxing to me and my Massage Therapy clients. Silke C. Massage Therapy and energy healing. NAMASTE,
