The therapeutic qualities of Clary Sage essential oil have been recognised since the birth of Christ. It was an Anglo Saxon sacred herb and by the 16th century it was widely known as a therapeutic tonic. Affectionately known as 'clear eye', Clary Sage was used in medieval times for clearing foreign bodies from the eyes.

Clary Sage is perhaps the most powerful relaxant of all the essential oils, making it particularly useful for a range of stress-related problems. It is described as having a 'euphoric' effect, similar to that of consuming alcohol. It has all of the qualities of Sage oil, and more, but is considered non-toxic and safer to use.
