However, there are still plenty of uses in very common cases such as joint inflammation, back pain, pulled muscles, sports recovery, soothing massages, rheumatism, inflamed and painful areas of the body, etc.

This plant is endemic to Madagascar; and a classic one at that of Malagasy pharmacopoeia.
On the île, the plant grows in the southwestern regions, dry and hot regions. These are also very good regions for the growth of different species of baobab (our baobab oil comes from there!).It is the strong presence of sesquiterp ishwarane that gives Katrafay essential oil its anti-pain and anti-fatigue properties: rare and sought after, a real benefit for you!

Note: essential oils are concentrated products, we have grouped the usage tips on these oils in a special page

And we can't say it enough, but since essential oils are so concentrated, always do a small allergy test in the crease of the elbow the first time, possibly discuss contraindications with your doctor, and rinse thoroughly if it comes into contact with the eyes. Keep this oil out of the reach of children and read the precautions for use carefully.

le lieu.

It is a small, sturdy shrub that provides us with our Katrafay essential oil. Trimmed for the driest, harshest climates, Katrafay is a bush tree endemic to Madagascar: it grows in the dust of the baobab trees, in the southwest of the country.

Description du produit par notre équipe, au micro, on vous en parle

Le mots des fondateurs sur l'huile essentielle de bois de Katrafay

This is a small pite of the Great Île. A shrub that doesn't look like much, you might pass it by if you are walking in the rather arid areas of southwestern Madagascar. As you crumple the leaves, you can smell the peculiar, woody, strong, somewhat camphorated odor of this thunderous plant.

.

I remember it was very hot, we were visiting an area rich in wild avocado trees with Andy, and you had to cover a lot of ground to see lots of them, of all sizes, of all shapes, some with lots of fruit, some without. It is not easy for us non botanists to find our way around, because avocado trees are not the only ones growing here. You will have understood it: the Katrafay. Honestly, we were not impressed by its appearance. But when working with it: what a smell, what potential!

.

 

It is an increasingly sought after ingredient, we are fans! Because it is a trésor of Madagascar, it is an outstanding essential oil to treat all the concerns of inflammation, soothing, muscle préparation, razor burn également. In short, we have been conquered, and we hope you will be too!

Most frequently asked questions about Katrafay bark essential oil

Do we say Katrafay or KaTAfray?

We're talking more about the first version, even though both exist. Don't panic, if you call us one day without knowing how to pronounce it, we've heard it all: "katrafaï", "katrafé", "katafeyy": we'll know what you're talking about!

In Malagasy, it is often pronounced "kadjafaï", just as the syllable "tr" is pronounced "dj".

It is a typical plant of the southwest of the country, where katrafay shrubs are very common.

 

What are the virtues and benefits of Madagascar katrafay essential oil?

This is a real gem in our range: you won't find katrafay everywhere, and it is highly sought after for its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties. It is very suitable for athletes and pre and post-sports: to prepare or soothe the muscles after effort. It is also a very effective tonic to fight against physical fatigue and joint discomfort, very indicated especially for people suffering regularly from muscle arthritis and looking for something to soothe them.

.

 

Is pure use on the skin dangerous?

 

As with any essential oil, we recommend using our katrafay essential oil diluted in a vegetable oil. Depending on your tastes and uses, you may be tempted by pure Coconut oil to apply on the body, or Jojoba oil for a combination skin on the face for example. In dilution, it is good for this oil to use it at a maximum concentration of 10% (that is to say 1 drop every 10 drops). External use on the skin is then quite effective, and we remind you that like any substance that you put in contact with your skin, a small test against allergic reactions in the crook of the elbow is always useful the first time.

Question: C'est l'huile utilisée à Madagascar contre les problèmes d'articulations ?
Mira, Modified on 14/12/2018

Oui c'est exactement celle-ci, l'huile essentielle traditionnelle utilisée depuis des générations et que vous pouvez trouver mélangée à d'autres composants dans beaucoup de produits pharmaceutiques de l'ïle ;)

Question: Est-ce que c'est de l'huile pure ou mélangée à une huile végétalee ?
Mira, Modified on 20/11/2018

Bonjour, c'est bien une huile de Katrafay pure. C'est pourquoi nous vous conseillons de l'utiliser mélangée à une huile végétale (Kukui, Jojoba, Cameline) si vous voulez l'utiliser en massage
