Copaiba Balsam Essential Oil – Wildcrafted

Copaiba Balsam Essential Oil (Copaifera langsdorfii) from Brazil is Wildcrafted Therapeutic Quality Essential Oil steam distilled from the resin of the leguminous trees.

The crude resin of Copaiba Balsam trees is sustainably harvested in the rainforests of Brazil and then steam distilled to make this phenomenal essential oil. This viscous liquid appears dark when exposed to light and has a pungent, woody scent. Amazonian indigenous peoples used Copaiba resin in a variety of ways, especially for skin conditions. It was also used as an ointment to treat various diseases by the natives of northern and Brazil. Today Copaiba is used mostly for its calming and soothing qualities as well as its seemingly uncanny ability to ease the mind.
