Cumin essential oil is a powerful digestive tonic and detoxifier. Its warming and carminative properties make it a premier oil for relieving gas, bloating, and indigestion. It is a potent detoxifying agent, helping to cleanse the body of accumulated toxins (ama). In massage, its warming nature helps to stimulate circulation and relieve muscular pain.
