A Bit of Herbal History

Chamomile has been used for over 2,000 years, treasured by ancient Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks for its calming and skin-soothing nature. The name comes from Greek roots meaning “ground apple,” a nod to its sweet scent and low-growing habit. Today, it’s still a trusted botanical in modern spa care.
