Engelmann spruce carries similar healing properties to those of Black Spruce.
It is an effective parasite cleanser, and herbal remedy for candida (intestinal fungal infections).
The spruces are also great respiratory tonics, and can relieve coughs, congestion, and inflammation in the respiratory tract. Inhaling this essential oil is an uplifting experience, and brings a feeling of support on all levels.
The tall, straight growth habit of Engelmann spruce is an indicator of the spine strengthening effects of this oil. It makes a wonderful spinal compress. It carries phytochemicals that have a steroid like effect, effectively relieving pain.
