Clary sage has a special affinity with the female system in general and is recommended for women who are experiencing hot flashes, pain and tension associated with menopause, menstrual problems and PMS. Clary sage has a reputation for creating a sense of euphoria, and in times past was used in beer and wine to heighten the effects of the alcohol. The essential oil is used to treat depressive states and is used as a sedative in nervous, panicky states of mind. |

 The essential oil is clear, and has a sweet, nutty scent, almost a floral quality. It calms the parasympathetic nervous system and is a good remedy for nervous stress. Contains a hormone-like compound similar to estrogen that regulates hormonal balance, a clary sage bath is warm and very relaxing. Helpful with oily hair and skin, dandruff and treating wrinkles. |
