I love tansy as a natural remedy for allergies. This deep blue oil can be used topically or inhaled to relieve many allergic symptoms. It is nourishing to the spleen and pancreas energies when applied topically as a compress over these organs.
It can help reduce bruises and help relieve many rashes and couperose skin conditions (redness or broken capillaries).
On an emotional level, tansy boosts courage and fortifies the heart energy, bringing up passion and zest for life. The fruity aroma is appealing to most people, including children.
