Olbas Products List
Switzerland has many natural resources, among them the rich variety of flora that grows in the lush valleys, by the crystal clear lakes and in the pristine mountains. Given such an abundance of medicinal plants, it is not surprising that Swiss botanists and herbalists are renowned throughout the world for their skill in using natural herbal oils and essences to promote healing. Olbas is a remedy that has been carefully developed from this wealth of experience and knowledge.
It was here in Switzerland, over 100 years ago, that these herbalists and botanists developed a blend of pure essentials oils that came to be known as Olbas Oil.
The name OLBAS is an acronym for Oleum Basileum, "Oil from Basle". Basle is enviably nestled on the border of Switzerland, Germany and France in the very heart of Europe, and to this day is a center of pharmaceutical research in Switzerland.
Over the years, Olbas has found its way into the far reaches of the earth. From England to Australia, from South Africa to Sweden, Olbas has truly become an internationally favorite remedy.
In the United States, Olbas has been available for over 50 years. Initially, it was imported into the USA by Mrs. Heidi Ritter, a kindly woman of German decent, who lived in Oak Creek, Wisconsin. She provided Olbas Remedies to many in the midwest and throughout the United States.
In 1975, Mrs. Ritter turned over the importing of Olbas to Penn Herb Company Ltd. in Philadelphia, PA. Since that time, Penn Herb Company Ltd. has greatly expanded the distribution of Olbas Remedies in the United States, making it available in fine health food stores, selected drugstores, and through their mail order catalog, website and retail store. The line of remedies has also been extended to expand on the many and various uses of Olbas.

Olbas is one of those unique remedies that we have offered to our customers since the 1960's. It has been of great benefit to many, and we use Olbas ourselves on a regular basis.
Historically, Olbas has been used for a wide variety of common ailments. Physicians have used Olbas in their practices for decades. Due to current regulations, however, we are unable to list most of the uses of Olbas on the packaging. However, we regularly receive many testimonials about Olbas use, and you are welcome to read these here.
Additionally, several historical publications, including clinical trials using Olbas and case studies by German physicians are available so you can begin to appreciate the deep history and heritage of Olbas. To read some of these historical Olbas documents, take the "Olbas History Tour".
But first, we suggest you take a few minutes and learn about the medicinal herbal plants that make up the Olbas formula. This will give you a better appreciation of why Olbas is known by many as the "Marvelous Swiss Oil".
