Ginger Oil is an essential oil extracted from the rhizomes of the Zingiber officinale plant, primarily through steam distillation. Known for its warm, spicy, and invigorating aroma, Ginger Oil contains bioactive compounds such as gingerol, zingiberene, and beta-bisabolene, which contribute to its therapeutic properties. Traditionally valued in Ayurveda and traditional medicine for digestive, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic benefits, Ginger Oil is widely used today in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, flavoring, and aromatherapy. Its stimulating nature makes it effective for promoting circulation, relieving muscle pain, and enhancing mood.
