Traditional Aromatherapy Uses
Cardamom has a long history of use in Ayurveda and other traditional practices. In aromatherapy, its warm, sweet and gently spicy aroma is often chosen for uplifting and revitalising blends, particularly during times of tiredness or mental fatigue.
Cardamom has also traditionally been associated with digestive comfort, while its fresh, slightly citrus character makes it a popular addition to aromatic blends intended to create a feeling of clearer, easier breathing. Its warming character can also complement relaxing blends designed to encourage a sense of calm and emotional balance.
