Words of Health

Aromatherapy, due to it's powerful nature, is a profound healing tool. And while I stated a couple of blogs ago, that it was the most powerful healing tool we have, I will have to change that a little. It is the most powerful known tool other than energy healing and faith.

This blog will be the final one on aromatherapy for awhile. Essential oils have hundreds of applications. The oils listed this time are given with known and documented properties.

Pine Oil is anti-fungal, anti-infectious, antimicrobial, antineuralgic, antirheumatic, antiscorbutic, antiseptic (pulmonary, urinary, hepatic), antiviral, bactericidal.

Orange Oil is antibiotic, anticoagulant, antidepressant, antigenic, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antispasmodic, bactericidal, calmative, carminative, cholagogue, choleretic, depurative, digestive, diuretic, fungicidal. It is also one of the oils highest in the compound of Limonene, a known anti-cancer component.

Tangerine Oil is antiseptic, antispasmodic, calmative, carminative, digestive, diuretic (mild), hypnotic, laxative (mild), sedative, stimulant (digestive and lymphatic), and tonic.

Roman Chamomile is analgesic, anti-anemic, antibiotic, antidepressant anti-inflammatory, anti-neuralgic, anti-phlogistic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, bactericidal, calmative, carminative, digestive, hepatic, hypnotic, immuno-stimulant, nerve sedative.

Elemi Oil is Antiseptic, balsamic, cicatrizant, expectorant, fortifying, regulatory, stimulant, stomachic, and tonic. Also called "poor mans Frankincense".

Grapefruit Oil is Antidepressant, anti-infectious, antiseptic, antitoxic, astringent, bactericidal, depurative, digestive, diuretic, restorative, stimulant (lymphatic, digestive), and tonic. Also high in Limonene.

Juniper Berry Oil is antiseptic, astringent, nervine. This oil has been used extensively thoughout history due to its benefit to the kidneys and digestive system. This essential oil company's sponsor is ID 119459.

I could literally go on for days with the benefits of therapeutic quality aromatherapy. Non-therapeutic has little to no value in health. An essential oil applied topically, will enter every cell of the body within minutes. One of the best places to apply an oil topically is the bottom of the feet. The pores are larger here, and will rapidly open to accept the oils.

If you are unfamiliar with using aromatherapy, you should always consult a practioner who is familiar before you begin. Used properly, therapeutic quality essential oils can literally be life-saving.

"Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation."
