Spike Lavender
Lavandula latifolia Medik.
Spike lavender is related to true lavender but is not the same oil. This public summary introduces Lavandula latifolia as a more penetrating, camphoraceous lavender-family oil with its own chemistry and safety considerations. Professional use should avoid borrowing claims from true lavender without qualification, and should consider cineole, camphor, dilution, age, respiratory sensitivity, and client preference.
Public Summary
This page is designed as a visitor-friendly introduction, not a complete monograph. It avoids treatment promises and keeps safety, botanical identity, and realistic scope at the center.
