Description
Springfields Ginger is a single, unblended essential oil, steam distilled from the rhizome of Zingiber officinale and supplied in an 10 mL bottle. The aroma is warm and spicy with a fresh, slightly green lift and a dry woody base, which is why it is so often reached for when a blend needs body and warmth rather than sweetness. It is used a drop at a time, diluted into a carrier oil for massage or added to a diffuser blend, and its job there is body: a dry, spicy warmth underneath citrus and floral notes that would otherwise sit thin.
Product Strengths
- Ginger has a long tradition of use in aromatherapy as a warming spice note in cold weather.
- One hundred per cent pure ginger essential oil, with no carrier oil, extender or added fragrance.
- Steam distilled from the rhizome, the underground stem of the ginger plant.
- Warm, spicy and woody, with a fresh green top note that keeps it from sitting heavily in a blend.
- Every batch is tested for authenticity, including GC and MS analysis, specific gravity, refractive index and checks for pesticide and herbicide residues.
- Sourced from growers overseas and in Australia, then blended and bottled in Australia.
Suitable For / Not Suitable For
Suitable for: General household use.
Not suitable for: Pregnant or breastfeeding women, unless advised by a health professional.
Botanical Source
Botanical name: Zingiber officinale
Plant part: rhizome, the underground stem
Extraction: steam distillation
Country of origin: No country of origin for this oil. Springfields sources essential oils from around the world, including Australia, and the oils are blended and bottled in Australia.
How to Use
- Diffuser or vaporiser: add a few drops to the water reservoir and run the appliance according to its own instructions.
- Massage and body blends: dilute in a carrier oil before applying to skin. The usual guidance for adults is 1 to 3 per cent, which is a small number of drops in a tablespoon of carrier.
- Bath: mix the oil into a dispersant or a little carrier oil first. Neat oil floats on water and can irritate skin.
- Blending companions listed on the pack include the citrus oils, geranium, sandalwood, ylang ylang, juniper, rose, eucalyptus, neroli, jasmine, frankincense, vetiver, patchouli, cedarwood and clove.
- Confirm directions for use from the product label.
Safety
- Not for internal use. Do not take this oil by mouth unless you are doing so under the supervision of a suitably qualified practitioner.
- Always dilute in a carrier oil before skin contact. The usual aromatherapy guidance for adults is 1 to 3 per cent in a carrier such as sweet almond, jojoba or apricot kernel oil.
- Patch test a small area of skin first and stop using the oil if redness, itching or irritation develops.
- Keep away from the eyes, the inner ears and other mucous membranes, and do not apply to broken or damaged skin.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Essential oils are flammable. Keep the bottle away from naked flame, heaters and other ignition sources.
- If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or you are under medical care, speak with a qualified health professional before using essential oils.
- Ginger oil may irritate sensitive skin. Dilute it well, patch test before wider use, and discontinue if a rash develops.
Storage
Store below 30 degrees Celsius in the original tightly capped bottle, standing upright, away from direct sunlight, heat and naked flame. Keep out of reach of children.
