What is Juniper? Common Juniper (Juniperus communis) is a robust plant of the cypress family, often found in heathlands.It is best known for its dark, berry-like cones. These contain a powerful essential oil that not only gives gin its aroma but has been regarded in naturopathy for centuries as one of the strongest remedies for "blood purification" and detoxification.

In body care, Juniper is the expert for removing metabolic waste products. This "detox effect" makes it particularly valuable for:

• Cellulite Treatment: Juniper oil stimulates lymphatic flow and helps reduce water retention in the tissue, making the skin appear smoother.
• Impure Skin: Thanks to its antiseptic effect, it helps with clogged pores and regulates excess sebum production.
• Firming: Its circulation-promoting properties ensure better nutrient supply and vitalization of sagging skin areas.

Juniper has a pleasantly warming effect on the muscles. In Hago baths or rubs, it is therefore an ideal companion in the cold season or after sports.

The Core Competencies of Juniper:

• Loosening of muscle tension (e.g., in the back area).
• Support for rheumatic complaints by promoting blood circulation.
• Accelerating the breakdown of lactic acid (sore muscles) after physical exertion.
