Angelica essential oil is protective and grounding, supporting a sense of safety, inner strength, and calm breathing – especially during periods of weakness and colds. Additionally, it helps to relax muscle and joint tension and calm the nervous system, promoting regeneration and better sleep.
Angelica Root Essential Oil (Angelica archangelica)
Certified organic angelica oil from France – protective and grounding
Certified organic essential oil. Angelica is a protective oil, helping you to feel grounded, safe, and strong, especially during cold season. A few drops can support free breathing and restful sleep. This oil is also excellent in massage blends for sore muscles and joints. In classical aromatherapy, it is referred to as an oil that "restores contact with the need for nourishment." Angelica root oil supports body awareness, digestion regulation, and reduction of tension associated with somatic anxiety, which in classical aromatherapy is sometimes used for long-term weakness and eating disorders – as emotional support.
Angelica root essential oil comes from the edible roots of flowering plants cultivated in France and is steam distilled. Its complex aroma, valued in perfumery, combines earthy, herbal, and woody notes. It is also often called "garden angelica," "wild celery" (due to slight celery notes), or "Norwegian angelica."
