Birch essential oil contains methyl salicylate, which has anti-inflammatory properties similar to aspirin, making it beneficial for reducing pain and swelling. It can also stimulate circulation, helping to alleviate muscle soreness and joint discomfort when used in massage or topical applications.
The Betula lenta tree has dark red bark with a sweet scent very similar to wintergreen. The tree has been used for hundreds of years. Our birch essential oil is steam-distilled from the bark of Canadian and American birch trees.

Common Uses
Birch is a very warming essential oil and is great to add to massage blends. Aromatically, it has a sweet, wintergreen scent. Topically, it quickly causes warming. It should always be applied with a carrier oil, even to very oily skin, as the topical application has a remarkable drying effect. Diffuse or apply in 2-5% dilution.
Precautions
Birch has a naturally high concentration of salicylates. It is also very sweet, which makes birch essential oil a hazard for children.
