She got them to try and see if it can help with her headaches that she has been complaining about. She first tried lavender, eucalyptus and lemon for her headache using the diffuser. Let me tell you something the aromatic power of the essential oil throughout our home made everyone feel nice. I do have to say that in the beginning, I was a little skeptical about the product. But after seeing my wife shows signs of relief from it, I started to feel differently now about the product.

I used to use eucalyptus oil as a treatment for respiratory infections in snakes. I would take half a teaspoon of Vick's vapor rub, a few drops of eucalyptus oil, and bring a pot of water to boil. I would mix them while the water was hot and this steamy eye-watering mixture would have my snakes back to health in no time. While I don't have any scientific evidence it has worked for me and many others and is much easier and cheaper than antibiotics with the same result.

Plant based medicine has been around for ages and is where we derive most modern medicine. There are some chemical properties of some of these oils that can alleviate pain. Eucalyptus, for instance, is well known for relief of sinus pain due to it's anti inflammatory properties. Lavender can relieve anxiety, although I attribute that to the pleasant smell, which could release endorphins thus reducing pain and anxiety.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00447024373853255541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135720363085979067.post-79763127907098863502015-07-28T07:01:31.214-07:002015-07-28T07:01:31.214-07:00I really enjoyed your post.

Well, I was visiting her family and her a few months ago and woke up with a terrible headache. She doesn't have tylenol or anything like that in her house, only the oils. She mixed together some peppermint, lavender, and a few other oils and told me to gently massage it onto my forehead, as the smells and absorption of the oils will reduce the headache quickly. The only thing I got out of this "experience" was two massive zits on my forehead, and a burning sensation that lasted about a week. It smelled lovely though!!
