Lemon Balm (Melissae officinalis folium) tincture made from dried leaves
What is Lemon Balm Tincture (Melissa officinalis)?
You have probably encountered the enchanting fragrance of lemon balm before. Not without reason, this healing plant is often called “lemon balm” in popular language. But Melissa officinalis has far more to offer than its scent alone. In the Middle Ages, this plant was cultivated in nearly every monastery garden for its many uses.
Originally native to the Mediterranean region, lemon balm thrives in warm, dry, and nutrient-rich soils. The plant can reach a height of up to 120 cm, producing delicate white blossoms. When cultivated, this hardy perennial adapts well to central Europe and can live up to 30 years depending on its environment.
For our tincture, we exclusively use lemon balm leaves, following traditional practices. The leaves are harvested under strict quality standards, carefully dried, and extracted with alcohol to ensure that all valuable compounds are fully preserved and available in their purest form.
A medicinal plant with a long tradition
Lemon balm has been used in monastic medicine for centuries to address a wide range of complaints. Hildegard of Bingen wrote: “Its warmth touches the spleen and therefore gladdens the heart.” The medieval physician Arnaldus de Villanova prescribed lemon balm for depression and heart issues, while the famous physician Paracelsus praised it as “the best herb for the heart of all that the earth provides.”
In traditional European folk medicine, Melissa officinalis has been successfully used for centuries. It is primarily applied in cases of digestive complaints, headaches, mood swings, toothache, earache, muscle and joint discomfort, sleep disorders, and stomach pain.
Melissa officinalis contains valuable compounds such as: essential oils, bitter substances, tannins (including caffeic acid and rosmarinic acid), resins, flavonoids, glycosides, mucilage, saponins, thymol, and vitamin C.

Schnelle Wirkung
Innerhalb weniger Tage war meine Stimmung besser. Fühle mich entspannter und gleichzeitig fokussierter.
Meine Geheimwaffe gegen Stress
Ich habe die Melisse-Tinktur ausprobiert, weil ich oft unter innerer Unruhe gelitten habe. Schon nach wenigen Tagen merkte ich eine deutliche Besserung. Die Tropfen sind leicht zu dosieren und die Wirkung ist angenehm sanft – kein "Knockout", sondern echte Balance. Ich werde sie definitiv weiterhin verwenden!
Sehr wohltuend für Magen und Nerven
Seit ich die Melisse-Tinktur regelmäßig nehme, habe ich deutlich weniger Magenbeschwerden bei Stress. Einfach einzunehmen und angenehmer Geschmack.
Endlich wieder entspannte Nächte!
Ich nehme die Melisse-Tinktur seit etwa sechs Wochen und habe seitdem viel ruhigere Nächte. Mein Einschlafen geht schneller und ich fühle mich morgens erholter. Besonders gut gefällt mir, dass die Tinktur keinerlei künstliche Zusätze enthält. Absolute Empfehlung für alle, die auf natürliche Entspannung setzen wollen!
