Buy Black Spruce Oil | Picea Mariana

Black Spruce Oil, scientifically known as Picea mariana essential oil, is revered for its fresh, woodsy aroma and therapeutic properties. It has been used for centuries by indigenous cultures for its healing benefits and aromatic qualities.

Black Spruce trees are native to North America, particularly the boreal forests of Canada and parts of the United States. Indigenous peoples have long utilized various parts of the black spruce tree for medicinal and cultural purposes. The extraction of oil from its needles and twigs dates back centuries, where it was valued for its respiratory benefits and spiritual significance.

The oil is extracted through a process of steam distillation, where the needles and twigs of the black spruce tree are subjected to high temperatures, causing the essential oil to vaporize and then condense into a liquid form. This method ensures the preservation of the oil's therapeutic compounds.
