Lemongrass is a powerful oil for healing connective tissue injuries–injured tendons, ligaments, etc. It stimulates the repair of these tissues on the cellular level, while relieving pain and inflammation.
It is also a great blood and lymph purifier, and stimulates liver detoxification. It relieves pain and muscle fatigue, making it a great choice for massaging tired athletes and others who spend a lot of time on their feet. Lemongrass will open the blood flow, restore flexibility, and relax muscles.
When diffused, lemongrass purifies the environment. It enhances mental clarity and increases alertness. Energetically, it is attuned to the solar plexus chakra, helping to balance and energize this energy center.
