Camphor Powder (Cinnamomum camphora) is a highly aromatic, crystalline powder derived from the wood of the camphor tree. Known for its sharp, penetrating scent and cooling sensation, camphor has been traditionally used in herbal medicine, topical preparations, and spiritual practices across many cultures.
In topical herbal applications, camphor is valued for its ability to invigorate circulation, ease muscle and joint discomfort, and open the sinuses. It produces a cooling effect when applied to the skin and is often included in balms, salves, and compresses designed to soothe stiffness, tension, or congestion. Its strong scent also makes it useful as a clearing agent in aromatic blends or external herbal therapies.
Camphor is also commonly used in folk traditions for purification and energy clearing. In powdered form, it may be burned in small amounts as incense in well-ventilated spaces for ritual cleansing or spiritual focus.
Camphor Powder (Cinnamomum camphora) is intended for external use only. It should not be ingested and should always be used in well-measured amounts, as it is potent and potentially toxic in excess. Avoid applying to broken skin, and do not use on infants or during pregnancy.
Each batch of Camphor Powder is carefully processed to retain its characteristic scent and potency. Whether used in herbal salves, aromatic blends, or traditional rituals, it offers a powerful and time-honored tool for external support and energetic clarity. For external use only.
