Clary Sage Essential Oil is extracted by steam distillation from the flowering tops and the leaves of Salvia sclarea.

This oil is best known for its calming effect on the nervous system and is traditionally used to support overall emotional balance. It may also be beneficial for skin concerns such as acne, boils and ulcers, and is often used to help ease discomfort in muscles and joints.

Clary sage is traditionally known for its relaxing and mood-balancing properties, and is often used during times of stress, low mood or restlessness. It is commonly chosen to support women’s wellness, especially around the menstrual cycle, childbirth and menopause, where it may help with discomfort, hot flushes, night sweats, and general irritability. It has also been valued for its soothing effect on digestion and overall kidney function, and is sometimes associated with aphrodisiac qualities.

In the middle ages, clary sage was known as Oculus Christi, which meant 'the eye of Christ'. It was a highly esteemed medicine right since then. In Jamaica, it was used by the local people for cleaning and cooling ulcers and for inflammation of the eyes. It is an expensive oil and has been an important and useful one in aromatherapy and natural medicine for a long time.
