desk-job stiff neck

4 oils · Citrus · Floral · Herbal · code BL-0545


A whole day at the computer, and your neck and shoulders are stiff as a statue. Three drops of lavender open with soft flowers, lemongrass adds fresh grassy lemon, rosemary blows in cool green leaf, and blue chamomile lines it with warm dried herbs. Good for standing up to stretch, rolling your neck a few times, or taking a warm shower. Run the diffuser in your workspace during breaks as a reminder to rest.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean); rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); blue chamomile (deeply herbal, bittersweet and a little smoky) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.

Safety

Skin irritant

Lemongrass can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.


FAQ

How do I use desk-job stiff neck in a diffuser?
Add Lavender 3 · Lemongrass 2 · Rosemary 2 · Blue Chamomile 1 drops to 200–300 ml of water. In a room under 15 m², use 1–2 drops less; in a room over 25 m², add 1 more drop of the main oil.
What can I use instead of lavender?
Swap lavender for geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.
When is the best time to use desk-job stiff neck?
Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.
