This is a must-have essential oil. Chamomile (both the Roman ad German varieties) is soothing and mild, and perfect for everything from digestive troubles to muscle spasms. You can put a few drops in a carrier oil and rub on your tummy and in this manner it is even safe for babies. I use this most on my body, especially at pressure points when I have a headache.

Chamomile happens to be pretty expensive but it's extremely diluted. You'll note we are selling 1/8 oz which is much smaller; this is because chamomile is so strong that is is normally diluted with jojoba oil. However, you are getting the 100% pure undiluted oil. A little goes a long way. Enjoy!
