Along with Christmas trees and pine forests, the majestic Balsam Fir trees provide us with a warming, refreshing essential oil. Native to North America, the evergreen Balsam Fir tree grows up to 80 feet tall. Used primarily for pulp and construction, the tree does not respond well to urban pollution and is rarely found in cities, preferring forests with clean, fresh air. β-Pinene can be an effective skin soother when applied topically for a relaxing massage.
