Wintergreen is one of aromatherapy's most effective oils for muscle and joint relief, and one that commands genuine respect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eValley of the Moon's Wintergreen is a certified organic essential oil steam distilled from the leaves of Gaultheria fragrantissima, sourced from Nepal. Its intense, sweet-aromatic, minty character is instantly recognizable from liniments, toothpastes, and chewing gum, where it has been used as a flavoring and therapeutic agent for generations. Rich in naturally occurring methyl salicylate, Wintergreen is a potent anti-inflammatory and anti-rheumatic oil that works deeply and effectively when used with proper dilution and care.
