Essential Oils for Haemostatic Styptic or Astringent:
Essential oils that may assist in the process of slowing and stopping the flow of blood to initiate wound healing.
"Hemostasis or haemostasis is a process to prevent and stop bleeding, meaning to keep blood within a damaged blood vessel (the opposite of hemostasis is hemorrhage). It is the first stage of wound healing. This involves coagulation, blood changing from a liquid to a gel. Intact blood vessels are central to moderating blood's tendency to form clots." -Wikipedia
