THE HERBAL GARDEN
All the oil extracts (infusion oils) contained in our ointments are produced in the Monastery. The extraction is mainly made by heat-infusion. The herbs are immersed in their carrier oils in stipulated analogies and controlled temperature by the means of up-to-date equipment. Along with the oil extracts, hydroalcoholic extracts are also being deployed. The active constituents of the herbal extracts are boosted by other basic materials like essential oils and hydrosol, which are known for their efficacy in skin care. This way, the effectiveness of the ointments is intensified and the greatest result when applied is ensured.
The combination of the aromatic herbs, and, by extension, of their extracts in the ointments is based on scientific research and advice of specialists in collaboration with the Monastery. Above all, the ten-year feedback the Sisters had been given from people who benefited from the products is of invaluable assistance in their efforts.
