Aromatherapy Treatments for Fibroids
Essential oils increase circulation to the pelvic organs, relax tense uterine muscles, ease
cramps, and encourage a state of overall relaxation that promotes healing. Use the
following essential oils in sitz baths, massage oils, and abdominal compresses.
Ginger is a potent circulatory stimulant with warming properties. It also helps to improve
liver function. Ginger has a spicy, warm scent.
Marjoram has potent sedative properties and is an excellent muscle relaxant that eases
uterine cramps. It also has mild laxative action and helps to relieve constipation when used
as an abdominal massage oil. Marjoram has a spicy, herbaceous, slightly sweet fragrance.
Rose is gentle and relaxing, and helps to ease physical and emotional tension. It has mild
hormone-balancing properties and is considered to be a uterine tonic. Rose has a deep,
