Camphene Benefits
Camphene is a naturally occurring terpene found in the essential oils of plants such as camphor, fir needle, and rosemary. Known for its fresh, woody, and slightly spicy scent, camphene is frequently used in aromatherapy for its potential to promote mental clarity and relaxation. It is believed to support the respiratory system by helping to clear airways, making it a common ingredient in products aimed at easing congestion and promoting deeper breathing.
In addition to its respiratory benefits, camphene is recognized for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It may help relieve muscle and joint discomfort by reducing inflammation and soothing soreness. These properties also make camphene a popular choice in skin care products, as it is thought to calm irritated or inflamed skin. As with all essential oils, proper dilution is crucial, and individuals should consult a healthcare professional before use, especially those with sensitive skin or specific health conditions.
