Po-Ho oil
Composition of 5 essential oils
Description - mode of action
Po-Ho oil was one of the first and most beloved compositions of Dr. Alfred Vogel. It contains a blend of 5 Essential Oils from fresh herbs:
-Peppermint 50%
-Eucalyptus 30%
-Western Red Cedar 14%
-Cumin 4%
-Fennel 2%
The name comes from Po-Ho, a Mandarin Chinese term for peppermint, which forms the basis of the five essential oils in this refreshing oil blend.
The main feature of essential oils is that they evaporate at room temperature - this is why they smell so pleasant. They can also be applied directly to the skin for absorption, either for home or gym aromatherapy (a few drops in a cup for the sauna).
In addition to providing a pleasant and relaxing aroma, essential oils can also help the body in other ways, forming the basis for aromatherapy.
Furthermore, peppermint and eucalyptus essential oils have been traditionally used to help maintain clean and fresh breathing and good respiratory health - especially during cold and flu seasons for nasal congestion, runny nose, muscle pain, headache, and sore throat.
