The original Olbas Oil formulation can be used for immediate relief from colds, congestion, catarrh, sinuses and hayfever. Olbas is a unique blend of oils in a dropper bottle which can be applied to a tissue for inhalation or directly to the skin for the relief of muscular aches and pains. Olbas oil can be used for adults and children from 3 months old. The essential oils in Olbas have a strong pleasant smell and when exposed to air give off penetrating vapours which rapidly relieve congestion to make breathing easier.

Applied to the skin these oils produce a feeling of warmth and a local anaesthetic action which makes them particularly effective in relieving muscular discomfort and rheumatic pain.
