Decongest: Sinus, Asthma, Colds, Cough and Cystitis Aromatherapy

Decongest: Sinus, Asthma, Colds, Cough and Cystitis Aromatherapy

 

Decongest is an aromablend originally formulated for sinus conditions. It is also beneficial for colds, the flu, bronchial congestion, asthma, pneumonia and over production of mucus. Asthmatics have successfully used Decongest on the upper back or chest to alleviate symptoms, reduce mucus and possibility of infection. Decongest also reduces coughs and helps remove catarrh from the body.

 

While contracting at local hospitals, I began suggesting Decongest at COPD support groups. Patients successfully used Decongest even on oxygen. The essential oils in Decongest open the lung tissue to assist in breathing. One COPD client in New Mexico raised his oxygen saturation levels to 95% using a special blend including Decongest.  All the essential oils in Decongest reduce the stress of exhaustion, nervous depression while improving circulation for clients. Swollen glands also benefit from the topical application of Decongest.

 

Decongest is in a sweet almond oil base which coats the skin and penetrates into the bloodstream and lymphatic system to initial the self-healing process Decongest can be worm on the sinus area of the cheeks, nose, temple or forehead. The chest and upper back are good locations for asthmatics to apply Decongest and those suffering from coughs and headaches. Children should not have Decongest applied to their face. 

 

The unexpected benefit of Decongest happened when clients used Decongest  to relieve symptoms of cystitis and pelvic congestion. Decongest was applied topically to the pelvic area or added to a bath. Pregnant women should avoid application of Decongest, but they can inhale the vapors once daily.

 

An added benefit of Decongest is it enhances mental alertness and concentration. The stimulating effects of Decongest leave you in a happy moodMother Nature’s Herbal is a book containing further information.

Allergies, Eczema and Aromatherapy

Allergies, Eczema and Aromatherapy

Allergic eczema is the most common skin disease, often beginning early in life. One in 5 children of industrial countries is affected by this red, inflamed itchy skin. It is usually followed by a host of allergies to food, animals and the environment.   Aromatherapy is a topical way to deal with these issues. 

Recent research indicates a mutation of the filaggrin gene is often involved with children suffering with eczema. Filaggrin is a protein involved with the formation and hydration of a protective layer of skin. Mutations in the gene create dry, flaky skin unable to form an effective barrier from foreign irritants. These “allergens” pass through this porous layer of skin producing an allergic response and resulting in eczema. Afterwards, these same materials, or allergens will also produce an allergic reaction in the lungs or in the coryza skin of the nasal tissue only because the skin was unable to maintain a strong barrier during the initial exposure. The natural skin barrier must be repaused to avoid continuous allergic responses and more eczema. 

Comfrey Yarrow: healing cream protects and hydrates dry, cracked skin, allowing the body to remove dead cells and regenerate healthy skin.

Allergy: aids in reducing allergic responses to common allergies as a topical application or spray.

Decongest: reduces sinus and chest congestion.

Vitamin D: enhances immune response to reduce allergic and asthmatic reactions.

Very often the thyroid can be adversely affected by even low levels of radiation in the air. 

Toxic Thyroid can be applied on the throat 2-3x daily

Environmental is also very protective for the skin and for inhalants

Headache / Sinus Pain Aromatherapy

Headache / Sinus Pain Aromatherapy

Headaches are a common source of pain and often mysterious in nature. Most headaches are related to tension and muscle tightening in the neck and base of the skull. Stress, alignment and ergonomics are often the cause of tension headaches.  Aromatherapy is increasing in use for helping reduce headache and sinus pain.  These are non-invasive aromatherapy pain products that are topically applied and may be safely used concurrently with over the counter and prescription medications.

Relax the Shoulders lotion massaged onto the neck, collarbone and shoulders is best for tension headaches.   Deep Massage essence blend applied on the temples and across the forehead help reduce cyclical pain and pain receptors. Each pain aromatherapy blend is calming and soothing. Relaxation and Reduce Stress blends promote calmness and stamina to reduce everyday stressors.

Migraine headaches have several symptoms: sensitivity to light and sound, nausea, vomiting, visual disturbances, auras, tingling, clumsiness and difficulty communicating and hearing. Many factors trigger migraines: hormone imbalance, weather, stress, fatigue, hunger, diet, trauma and neck injuries. Sufferers should use these pain aromatherapy products:   Deep Massage daily, and Relax the Shoulders lotion on the neck and shoulders twice daily.

Sinusitis and subsequent headaches and facial pain are best helped with Decongest aromablend lightly massaged around the nose, cheeks, on the temples and forehead. The Sinus spray can be used throughout the day for quick relief. Allergy blend is also used when common allergens cause sinusitis.

Ear infections are common to most children by the age of three.  Deep Massage blend can be worn to reduce pain during medical treatment. Unwind aromablend worn behind the ears and/or side of the neck increase drainage and may help reduce reoccurrence. If reoccurrence continues, dietary changes may be needed.
