Traditional Uses of St. John's Wort Infused Oil

The use of Hypericum perforatum (St. John's Wort) as an herbal remedy dates back to ancient Greece. Traditionally, the infused oil has been used extensively for:

• Wound Healing: Applied to cuts, abrasions, minor burns, and bruises. Ancient Greeks like Hippocrates recommended it for wound healing.

• Nerve Damage and Pain: Specifically used for injuries involving nerve damage, sciatica, neuralgia, and conditions causing shooting or burning pain.

• Muscle and Joint Pain: Applied to alleviate aches, stiffness, rheumatism, and lumbago.

• Skin Irritations: Soothing various skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis, and general inflammation.

• Protection (Folklore): In some traditions, the plant was collected for protection against evil spirits and demons, partly due to its "sun-like" appearance and its blooming around St. John's Day, 24th June.
