Historical Uses of Rose Geranium Oil

The Pelargonium species that produces Geranium and Geranium EO, Rose was not much used in traditional European herbal medicine and there has been frequent confusion among aromatherapists about the properties of the types of “geranium” that were used by herbalists and the properties of the Geranium essential oil that is sold on the market today..

 

Prior to today’s use of the Essential Oils of Geranium and Rose Geranium in aromatherapy, the plants that produce these essential oils were used as herbs in the traditional medicines of the Zulu and Hottentot tribes in their native range.
