Description:  Copaiba Balsam Resin is harvested by tapping wild trees in the rainforests of Brazil. It has a unique aroma that can be described as exotic and sensual with a delicate creamy-woody scent, and a hint of sweetness to it - like honey or maple syrup. Historically, it has been used by Amazon indigenous tribes since the 16th century as an anti-inflammatory and wound healer. It is a base note of mild aroma.

Benefits & Uses:

  • Although not proven through clinical trials, anecdotal evidence supports its traditional use as an anti-inflammatory and pain reliever. Try it for alleviating sore muscles, joint pain, and inflammation caused by normal wear and tear.
  • Quiets a restless mind, soothes anxious feelings and helps to focus attention. It is a wonderful oil for promoting a sense of tranquility. 
  • Copaiba's warming properties make a lovely addition to respiratory blends designed to encourage healthy lungs, especially by clearing congestion, while also providing immune support during cold and flu season.
  • Can assist the occasional digestive issue.
  • Because Copaiba is a base note, it makes a lovely 'fixative' in your DIY aroma blends and will help to balance, round-out, and anchor the other oils in your blend.

Featured In: Invite yourself to a delicious "cuppa chai" with our essential oil blend, Copaiba Chai. It features the classic, well-known spices of Cardamom, Nutmeg, Black Pepper, Clove, and Cinnamon, and is sweetened with Copaiba for a unique twist on the classic. Makes a lovely diffuser blend to combat germs during cold and flu season, or try adding 10-12 drops to 1 ounce (30ml) of carrier oil and massage aching muscles or joints.
