Benefits of Imphepho Pure Essential Oil
Promotes relaxation and improved sleep

The pure essential oil of the South African indigenous herb Imphepho enhances muscle relaxation, soothes headaches and arthritis. Calms skin ailments and prevents wound infections. Repels insects. Invokes an ancestral connection and brings back wholesome memories.

Traditionally the dried herb was used to ‘smudge’ in ritual and ceremony to connect with the ancestors and clear dwellings of stagnant energy. The Khoisan bushmen and women anointed their bodies with the healing herb for its anti-microbial benefits.

Imphepho is a member of the unique South African Fynbos Kingdom. 

Pure Fynbos Imphepho Essential Oil has been steam-distilled from wild crafted and wild harvested botanicals in a sustainable project to rehabilitate fallow and mono-cropped farmlands. Our aim is to restore the natural habitats of the unique and endangered Fynbos Kingdom and preserve the precious resource of indigenous knowledge. Imphepho promotes relaxation and improved sleep while relieving sadness, stress, aches and pains such as headaches and tense muscles. Imphepho oil is a natural insect repellent and useful on stings or insect bites.

Add a few drops into a tablespoon or more of carrier oil of your choice (i.e. coconut oil) and massage into your body to relieve arthritis or muscle tension.

Add five drops into a bath, aroma-burner, diffuser, humidifier or pillow to have a good sleep.
