Applications
The oil is used in aromatherapy to soothe the discomfort of muscular rheumatism and arthritis. If the skin produces excessive perspiration or oil, citronella can encourage more balanced hydration. Citronella can invigorate the body’s natural resistance to colds, fevers, flu and other minor infections by encouraging healthy perspiration. It is thought to be amongst the most effective insect repellents.
