About Hypericum Oil: In our gardens, yellow St. John's Wort flowers are hand-harvested at their peak potency around the summer solstice. We use a special, slow infusion process to create this magnificent deep red oil. St. John's Wort has a special affinity for the nervous system, and when used topically, can support a healthy inflammatory response after strenuous activity, ease discomfort, and even support the integrity of the physical nervous system -- particularly at the periphery of the body --fingers, toes, bottom of spinal column. Can be used during pregnancy and postpartum, or anytime, to support healthy perineum tissue.

A soothing and effective oil to consider when tending to the skin after minor cuts, bruises, or burns. Supports the skin's normal repairing process. This oil can be used on areas of minor redness or mild irritation on the body and face. St. John's Wort can also be used in a massage oil blend or on its own for muscles needing some classic TLC. This magnificent oil supports circulation, helping joints, fingers, and toes maintain healthy flexibility and nimbleness.
