Spearmint is a stimulating oil that can be substituted for Peppermint since it contains several chemicals that are similar in effect to Menthol, which it contains in small doses. Use in massage blends and apply to the chest to aid respiratory issues such as bronchitis. Apply to abdomen to relieve flatulence, constipation, hiccups, nausea and diarrhea. Can be used for children. Use in a roll-on and apply throughout the day to stimulate a tired mind. Inhale during pregnancy to help ease nausea.
