Description

Discover the positivity-infused aroma of Edens Garden's Copaiba essential oil. This sweet-scented gem encourages easy breathing and ushers in a sense of tranquility, allowing you to inhale the goodness of the day and exhale everything else. More than just a pleasant aroma, Copaiba is known for its healing properties that can help soothe inflammation, ease sore muscles, and alleviate joint pain.

Hailing from Brazil, Copaiba's oil-resin has been a cherished folk remedy since the 16th century. Used by northeastern Brazilian tribes, it has found its way into soaps, perfumes, and fragrances as a fixative, and is often burned in ceremonies for physical and spiritual healing. The evergreen tree from which it originates grows up to 100 feet, sprouting yellow flowers and reddish fruit. The copaiba resin is extracted by drilling holes into the trunk of the Brazilian copaifera reticulata tree and then steam distilled to capture its essential oil.

Incorporating Copaiba essential oil into your daily routine is as simple as it is beneficial. Add a few drops to your diffuser to enjoy its sweet aroma and promote calmness, or blend it with a carrier oil for a soothing massage to help relieve muscle and joint pain. You can also include it in your DIY skincare recipes for an anti-inflammatory boost. Just remember to perform a skin patch test before topical use and always dilute it with a carrier oil. With its unique aroma profile and wellness benefits, Copaiba essential oil is a must-have addition to your essential oil collection. Explore the world of wellness with Copaiba today!

Can you ingest Copaiba essential oil?
  • Essential oils are powerful, concentrated substances so a little goes a long way. Two of the most effective ways to use them is by way of inhalation and topical use. Ingesting Copaiba essential oil is rarely necessary or recommended, no matter the brand. Ingestion can lead to adverse reactions such as medication contraindications, mucous membrane irritation, sensitization and nausea if done incorrectly. Therefore, if you wish to take essential oils internally, we strongly recommend consulting with a knowledgeable professional with experience in internal use.
How do I use Copaiba essential oil for pain?
  • To relieve sore muscles and achy joints try making some DIY products that you can use when you need to. For a Sore Muscle Bath Salt blend, combine 1 drop of Copaiba, 1 drop of Peppermint and 3 drops of Frankincense with 1 tablespoon of Castille soap and 1 cup of Epsom salts for added magnesium absorption. Stir together and add to running bath water for a relaxing soak. As an alternative, make yourself a muscle rub by blending a 2 oz glass bottle with a carrier oil of your choice and 10 drops of Copaiba, 5 drops of Peppermint and 5 drops of Frankincense- serrata. Massage as needed into sore areas and use as often as needed. Add 10 minutes of heat after applying the oil blend to further aid inflammation and pain.
Is Copaiba essential oil safe for a teething baby?
  • We do not recommend using essential oils at all with children under the age of 2 years old. Babies have a heightened sensitivity to odors and are way more sensitive to essential oils. They also do not metabolize essential oils as well as adults and their livers can get overloaded quickly. With that being said, we do not recommend using Copaiba essential oil around children under 2 years old.
