Aromatherapy, for its part, will help you relax, undo the after-effects of stress and fill your moments of intimacy with bright moments. If you are looking for natural ways to restore and strengthen your health, essential oils will help you along the way.

7 essential oils to restore and strengthen men's health:
- Lavender and rosemary;
- Rose;
- Ginger;
- Cinnamon;
- Nutmeg and clove;

Lavender and rosemary.
One of the first essential oils people turn to for all sorts of health problems is lavender.
Lavender is well known for its soothing, relaxing properties. The scent of lavender and rosemary has a beneficial effect on the reproductive system. The essential oils of these plants reduce the side effects of the oxidative processes that arise in diabetes. On top of that, lavender oil has been found to be an effective way of reducing the harm formaldehyde does to the body.
An interesting fact: a study carried out in 2014 found that the combination of the smell of lavender and pumpkin pie produced the biggest rise in arousal (sexual arousal) in male volunteers.
The aromatic oils of rosemary and lavender have a positive effect on testosterone levels and sperm quality, and this comes from their antioxidant action on the body.
Rose
Rose oil helps to relieve the symptoms of depression and helps you relax, which has been confirmed time and again in studies on animals as well as on people. It is practically an “aphrodisiac of the mind”, one that raises the sense of happiness, self-confidence and sensuality. Rose oil raises libido and increases the production of male sex hormones and of sperm.
Ginger
Ginger extract has a strong effect on hormonal activity in men. Ginger is a powerful antioxidant, it raises sperm quality and improves the blood supply to peripheral organs and tissues.
Cinnamon
Various experiments and studies have shown time and again that cinnamon essential oil improves sexual function. Regular use of cinnamon oil is an effective way to support the health of the male reproductive system and improve sperm quality.
Cinnamon essential oil stimulates a rise in testosterone levels and increases sperm count, motility and viability.
Nutmeg and clove
The aromatic oils of nutmeg and clove increase sexual activity in men.
(In experiments on mice these essential oils even improved mating characteristics)
Nutmeg and clove are stimulants of the nervous system and have a positive effect on sexual behaviour. Nutmeg increases blood circulation, which helps to get rid of ED.
Basil
Basil has long been used in herbal medicine to treat a variety of illnesses. Basil extract significantly raises sperm motility, viability and count. It lowers oxidative processes in the body, that is, it works as an antioxidant.
Basil essential oils protect the testicles from the toxic effects of heavy metals and alcohol. Besides all that, basil also has calming properties.
Ylang-ylang
Ylang-ylang is used to treat frigidity, depression and anxiety. Ylang-ylang essential oil helps you get rid of ED on several levels. It has euphoria-like properties that give a sense of well-being and raise self-esteem.
How to use essential oils
Mix a few drops of an aromatic oil with a carrier oil (olive, almond, coconut) and use it to massage the lower back and the belly.
Use an aroma lamp in your bedroom.
Put a few drops of neat essential oil on your sheets and pillowcases.
Use a spray (a diffuser) in the room.
Make a cold or hot compress, adding a few drops of aromatic oil to the water first. Apply it to the lower back and the belly.
When you take a bath, add a few drops of essential oil to the water.
Warning:
Never drink neat essential oils.
Always dilute essential oils in a carrier oil, olive or coconut for instance, before putting them on the skin. This will prevent irritation.
Don't forget to let yourself do the things that make you feel good. Find time to look after your health, for your hobbies, your interests and your private life. Take care and stay healthy!
