Common Uses: Lemongrass is known for its invigorating and antiseptic properties. An excellent anti-depressant, it tones and fortifies the nervous system and can be used in bath for soothing muscular nerves and pain. This oil can be used in Cellulite Blends for its assistance in breaking down the fatty tissues and in my Ligament and Tendon Blend as one of the few oils that can help rebuild the tissues of Ligaments and Tendons.
