RM 50.00


Palo santo (Bursera graveolens) is a tree that's native to Peru, Ecuador, and other South American countries. It grows in dry tropical forests and produces very fragrant resin. In Spanish, palo santo means “holy wood.”

Burning these sticks is a sacred practice used by Indigenous communities of the Andes to cleanse their space and ward off evil spirits. This practice is called smudging – a spiritual practice where you clear your energy fields using a piece of burning palo santo similarly to Sage and Cedar.

For thousands of years, the wood, resin, and oil have also been used for medicinal purposes such as to treat pains and relieve stress.
