Abstract EN
Lavender is traditionally alleged to have a variety of therapeutic and curative properties, ranging from inducing relaxation to treating parasitic infections, burns, insect bites, and spasm.
There is growing evidence suggesting that lavender oil may be an effective medicament in treatment of several neurological disorders.
Several animal and human investigations suggest anxiolytic, mood stabilizer, sedative, analgesic, and anticonvulsive and neuroprotective properties for lavender.
These studies raised the possibility of revival of lavender therapeutic efficacy in neurological disorders.
In this paper, a survey on current experimental and clinical state of knowledge about the effect of lavender on the nervous system is given.
