A lot of us know eucalyptus as a plant that makes our homes smell absolutely amazing, but who would’ve thought that they actually had so, so many health benefits too?
If you were thinking of using some eucalyptus essential oils, wanted to bring home a few stems just because, or love fresh eucalyptus wreaths for the holidays, we want to let you in on some of the wonderful eucalyptus benefits out there!
- Eucalyptus oil was first believed to clean urinary catheters in the 19th century – who knew!

- Also, did you know mixing coconut and eucalyptus oils together is the perfect concoction for nourishing and moisturizing your hair?
- Eucalyptus has actually been a huge help when it comes to treating pain and inflammation associated with arthritis and other muscle conditions.
