Sandalwood Oil Helps to Ease Anxiety


Used for centuries in Hindu, Buddhist, and ancient Egyptian ceremonies, burning sandalwood was thought to relieve depression and restlessness, promoting spirituality and inner peace. The fragrance is still used today in funeral rites to instill comfort and acceptance among mourners.

A pilot study published in Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice in 2006 noted that sandalwood oil was capable of reducing anxiety in a small sample of patients receiving palliative care. Both sandalwood oil aromatherapy massage and exposure to sandalwood oil via an aroma stone eased the symptoms of anxiety more effectively than a massage with sweet almond oil alone.
