Chamomile Roman - AromaPets

(Anthemis Nobilis, Chamamaelum Nobile)

History and Character
Roman Chamomile is a small, half spreading herb with feathery leaves and daisy like flowers. A sweet and gentle plant yet sturdy. Native to southern and western Europe, it is widely cultivated throughout Europe and the United States.

The pale blue oil, is similar to its cousin German chamomile, but less anti-inflammatory and more suited to those who are likely to make a fuss about every little thing, rather than "man up" and bear it stoically. Roman chamomile is ideal for those who are constitutionally nervous, "jumping out of their skins" and over reactive, especially if suffering from diarrhoea when anxious.

The oil calms the nerves, stomach and skin, and helps them live more comfortably in their skin, physically and emotionally. For me it is "the child's oil", as it is gentle, soothing and works well for "growing up " problems, such as teething, colic and restlessness. It also helps dogs who are fearful and nervous with children and soothes immature tantrums and outbursts of emotion, however old you are.
