It is valued for its medicinal properties, primarily due to the presence of methyl salicylate, a compound that has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, similar to aspirin.

The plant is known to offer various health benefits, including relieving pain and reducing inflammation, as well as exhibiting antimicrobial and antifungal properties.
