Can Essential Oils Help Asthma Sufferers?

September 29th, 2010

Here are some techniques that grandparents reported successfully using with their grandson.

She put 3 drops of myrtle in her palm and rubbed it clockwise. She then put it along her grandson’s nose and across his cheek bone (sinus area) to his ear.

She taught her grandson to do this each time he needed the inhaler.

Ten years later, and he hasn’t had to touch the once since starting with using the oils and this technique.

The oil was applied 3 times on each side of his face. And he breathed in deeply 3 times.

Here is a technique suggested by Bob B.:

  • Experiment with RC, Raven, Ravensara, Eucalyptus.
  • Drop 3 drops of oil into your hand and stir 3 times clockwise with the other hand.
  • Apply to the lung and bronchial reflex points on the feet.
  • Put 3 more drops same as before and apply to the chest.
  • Rub both hands together and cup together over the mouth and nose.
  • Breathe in deeply through the nose.
  • Then cup hands over the mouth and exhale.
  • Cup hands over nose and mouth.
  • Inhale through mouth.
  • Remove Hands.
  • Exhale through mouth.
  • Repeat 10 times two or three times a day breathing deeply from the diaphragm.

French, British or German?

September 26th, 2010

When I tell my students that there are 3 models of aromatherapy, they are surprised as most of the aromatherapy books you will find at your favorite bookstore only discuss the British or English model.

So here are the distinctions between the three:

English or British model

  • advocates diluting a small amount of essential oil in a vegetable oil
  • diluted oil used in massage for the purpose of relations and stress relief

French

  • advocates ingestion or oral administration of therapeutic grade oils

German

  • recommends inhalation of the essential oil
  • aromatic compounds affect the hypothalamus and limbic system in the brain

Young Living Essential Oils incorporates all three modalities with Vita Flex, auricular technique, lymphatic massage, Raindrop technique and more —- for the best possible results!
