Loosely translated, Palo Santo means Holy Wood. Palo Santo has been used for hundreds of years by native shamans for spiritual applications. For those that integrate essential oils within meditation, prayer or other spiritual applications, Palo Santo is an oil to pay close attention to.
Found in various regions of Latin America, the tree known as Palo Santo is a member of the Burseraceae family, which also includes Frankincense and Myrrh. Palo Santo is quite rare, and its essential oil only comes from the heartwood of a fallen tree that has aged for years, making it one of the most sought-after fragrances in aromatherapy.
