Burning dried wood from the “mystical” palo santo tree and collecting its concentrated oils have been widely used in folk medicines and by shamans (“medicine men”) for centuries because of the tree’s perceived spiritual applications. The wood from palo santo trees is also commonly burnt as incense and used to make a natural mosquito repellent (like citronella oil) because it possesses aromatic resins and volatile oils.
Burned similarly to other incense by lighting shavings of palo santo wood, the smell keeps bugs and spiritual “bad energy” away, according to mystics. In Peru, a shaman will light palo santo sticks, and the rising smoke is said to enter the “energy field” surrounding the site. For ritual participants who observe the practice and take in palo santo’s aroma, it’s believed to “clear misfortune, negative thought prints, and evil spirits.” This is the reason it’s known as a powerful essential oil for mental and emotional clarity.
Palo Santo Benefits Immunity and Lowers Inflammation
An analysis of steam-distilled palo santo oil (using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) showed that the major active constituents include: limonene (89.33 percent), α-terpineol (11 percent), menthofuran (6.6 percent) and carvone (2 percent). Other beneficial compounds in smaller quantities include germacrene D, muurolene and pulegone.
