Lemon balm is abundantly used in traditional medicine to treat insomnia, anxiety, gastric conditions, psychiatric conditions, migraines, hypertension, and bronchial conditions. I share the fact that Melissa Lemon Balm is excellent for pain also the distilled hydrosol is wonderful to relieve pain and relax the body. I have turned so many people onto the benefits of lemon Balm that no matter what form I have it in I cannot keep it in stock.
There are lots of lemon balm uses. According to the University of Maryland Medical Center, lemon balm (or Melissa officinalis L. as it is scientifically known) was steeped in wine to lift the spirits, aid in healing wounds, and help treat venomous insect bites and stings even before the Middle Ages. However, it should not be consumed by pregnant and breastfeeding women. It may also interact with HIV medications, sedatives, and thyroid medications, so it is best to consult your doctor before consuming it in any form.
