Damiana Benefits for Your Health

Though Damiana is a lesser known essential oil than Lavender or Ylang Ylang, it is like having the best of these two herbs for a full package experience.

Damania helps your body to get more restful, healing, rejuvenating sleep that your body needs. But this herb does so much more!

What is Damiana?
