Solidago canadensis
10-22€ / 10ml

Goldenrod, or solidago, carries in its Latin name the promise of its therapeutic vocation: 'solidare' means 'to make solid, to consolidate'. Native Americans employed it as a poultice on wounds and in infusion for urinary problems. European settlers discovered it with astonishment and sent it back to Europe. Herbalists of the 19th century recommended it as 'the plant of the kidneys', a reputation it still holds in contemporary herbal medicine.
Goldenrod is distinguished by its triple anti-inflammatory, diuretic and hepatic action, a therapeutic profile rare in aromatherapy. Where most essential oils act mainly on the respiratory or skin sphere, solidago specifically targets the urinary sphere and the liver. It is the essential oil of choice to accompany spring detox cures and prostate congestion problems.
