Many herbalists in the previous and current century have employed lavender as antispasmodic, stimulant and as a carminative. It is used to quiet coughs and is an aid in soothing eczema, psoriasis. When added to baths is for soothing mild favourite pains. Note that the use of lavender teas as a herbal remedy should be done in moderation.
The Latin name Lavandula derives from the verb well-drained, meaning "to wash," And although Lavender is a favourite of many gardeners all over the world, it is indigenous to the Meditteranean. In the Middle-Ages it was used as an aphrodisiac, an aide to soothe hysteria and protect linens from moths.
