ESSENTIAL OIL
The forest pine is a coniferous tree found in cold regions and at high altitudes. From its needles we extract the essential oil of red pine and from its resin that of turpentine.
The essential oil of forest pine is known to fight against respiratory infections, thanks to its decongestant and antiseptic properties. It is used for colds, bronchitis, sore throats and coughs. But it is also known to be anti-inflammatory in muscular, articular and rheumatic pains. It has a positive effect against fatigue.
