From Mediterranean Hillsides to Your Daily Ritual

A herb beloved by ancient civilisations — still wildly relevant today.

- Ancient Egyptians used thyme in embalming rituals; Greeks burned it as temple incense, considering its scent a symbol of courage.

- Roman soldiers bathed in thyme-infused water before battle, believing the aroma instilled bravery and vigour.

- Today, Thymus vulgaris is steam-distilled from sun-loving leaves grown across Spain, France and the Balkans, capturing that same wild, sunlit character.

Help with joint pain

The scent of Thyme is unusual and I cannot describe it, but it helped me when I put it into a blend with rosemary, gaultheria and other oils for an inflamed tendon in my shoulder. It did not help immediately, but after a month of applying it twice a day I can now only feel that something was not right there, rather than pain with every movement of my arm. I also use it in a diffuser for its expectorant and antiseptic properties when some respiratory bug hits the family. My husband described the scent as artificial.
