About Olbas
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.

The Betz Family takes great pride in their worldwide reputation for quality products and friendly service. Now for over 3 generations, they continue to provide their customers with unique natural remedies from around the earth.

Olbas is one of those unique remedies that they have offered to their customers since the 1960's. It has been of great benefit to many, and they use Olbas themselves on a regular basis.
