Special properties and effects of sandalwood

Sandalwood is well known and respected for its balancing effect on the nervous, respiratory and especially the excretory system. It is soothing on dry or irritated skin and scalp, including excema. As a hormone regulator, it is useful for menstrual problems. Although it is possible to obtain this distilled oil from the sandalwood trees in Australia, it is way inferior to the oil from the mysore region of the karnataka region of East India.
