Wintergreen Essential Oil

Our organically crafted Wintergreen Essential Oil is steam distilled from the vibrant, deep-green leaves of Gaultheria procumbens, a low-growing, evergreen shrub native to the Himalayan Mountains of Nepal. Known for its unmistakably sharp, sweet-minty aroma with woody undertones, this oil delivers a powerful, refreshing top note that both invigorates the senses and supports the body.

Also known as Tea Berry, Checker Berry, and Box Berry, Wintergreen has a long history in traditional wellness practices—from soothing muscle aches to supporting respiratory health.

Nature’s Answer to Aches & Recovery

The active component of Wintergreen Essential Oil, Methyl Salicylate, is highly valued for its natural analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It’s the same compound found in many over-the-counter topical pain relievers, and just a small amount of this oil goes a long way.

Traditional Roots, Modern Applications

Historically, Native American communities chewed Wintergreen leaves to enhance lung function and support respiratory wellness. Early American settlers also turned to this herb to support oral health, even using it as a natural remedy to prevent tooth decay.

In contemporary use, small, food-safe quantities of Wintergreen Oil can be found in chewing gums, toothpastes, and lozenges for its cooling flavor and breath-freshening qualities.

Use With Care

Due to its potency, Wintergreen Essential Oil should always be used in diluted form and in small amounts, especially when applied topically. It is not recommended for daily or long-term use without professional guidance, especially for children, pregnant women, or individuals on blood-thinning medications.
