Description

Storage conditions

How it should be used?

Steam infusions: Leaves added to water poured over hot stones fill the sauna with earthy fragrance, disinfecting air and easing breathing.

Herbal tea: Wormwood tea consumed after sauna supports digestion, detox, and immunity.

Skin rinses: Decoctions poured over the body tone skin, refresh, and leave a subtle herbal scent.

Aromatherapy sachets: Dried wormwood placed in linen bags hung in the sauna slowly releases fragrance, creating a meditative atmosphere.
