| Symtom... | What The Oil Helps to Heal... |
Acne | Washing the face before is recommended. You can apply Lavender neat, twice a day. Usually there is no scarring. Neat is implied straight from the bottle, with clean fingers. |
| Allergies | Do you suffer from runny nose, itchy eyes, sniffling, sneezing all the time? Do yo take Over The Counter medicines? Apply a little lavender just under the nose when symptoms arise and repeats as needed. You can also apply to the vitaflex points on the feet. Lavender Provides Relief! |
| Arthritis | Apply PanAway directly to the affected area, neat. As needed for pain or stiffness. No side-effects from oils. |
| Asthma | Do you have a chronic cough, shortness of breath? Apply R.C. to chest area (you may want to dilute it if you have sensitive skin) and take 6 deep breaths from the bottle each day. This has greatly reduced my coughing. You can also diffuse it and keep it by your bed at night. |
| Baldness (Alopecia Areata) | Lavender is great for the scalp becuase it stimulates the blood flow to the scalp. 5-10 drops of Lavender every night. Side benefit is it also takes care of the dandruff, or any other scalp related issue. |
| Blisters / Boils | Lavender applied directly to the area. Three times a day. Yous hould see results on the third day. Some people react faster than others. |
| High Blood Pressure | Drinking 4 ounces of NingXia Red for a couple of months now (2 oz. in the a.m. and 2 oz. in the p.m.) and I applied AromaLife to the insides of my elbows and over my heart area. And this has kept my blood pressure at regular levels. |
| Bruising | Lavender neat directly to the area as soon as you see a bruise is best. Keep applying until it is gone and with a few days it is all gone. |
| Burns | Lavender is my all time favorite oil. It has amazing healing for burns, cuts, blisters. Just apply neat to area, until gone. No scarring. |
| Canker Sores | I had read many testimonials regarding frankincense, and decided to try applying this oil at the first sign of my last outbreak. As soon as I felt the telltale tingle on my lower lip, I applied a drop of frankincense to my finger and rubbed it on my lower lip. I repeated this 2 times the first day. The pain that has always followed the tingle never developed. The second day the sore seemed to reach its peak and began to drain, but had no associated pain. I repeated the first day's 3x/day application of frankincense. The third day there was, again, no pain, and the sore had begun to disappear. I repeated the 3x/day application of frankincense. Today, the fourth day, there is no pain, the sore is gone and all that is left is a dry layer of skin over the place where the sore was.

| High Cholesterol | When I first started using Young Living, I only tried the Ningxia Red morning and evening always 2 oz. each time. That's all. My Diabetes is almost normal, and my cholesterol dropped 39 points, my doctor says to let her know more when it drops another 60 points. AromaLife on vita flex points and over heart and wrists before bed. |
| Carpal Tunnel Syndrome | I get severe pain if I overuse the fingers on my right hand. And they go numb quite easily. The best thing I have found for my pain is lemongrass, wintergreen, peppermint lastly layered, in that order, with a minute or so between each one. The difference they make is fantastic! |
| Cellulite | The essential oils that are used most for cellulite therapy are Juniper, Citrus, Rosemary, Lemon, Lemongrass, Grapefruit and Geranium oil. Bath and especially massage are the most effective Aromatherapy uses for a successful cellulite cure. Add 8-11 drops of your favourite essential oil in your bath water and stay in it for at least 20 minutes, once a week. This time allows essential oil to penetrate your skin and its diuretic and circulation boosting action to be more effective.
|
| Vericose Veins | Dilute 1 part Lemongrass with 4 parts organic olive oil or grape seed oil. Within minutes my legs are invigorated and the dull, achy vein pain disappears! Even better, after a couple of months of applying diluted Lemongrass directly to my legs once or twice a week, the actual veins have diminished and are but a fraction of the sight that they used to be. I am no longer embarrassed to wear shorts!
|
| Colds | Put 2-4 drops of Thieves in your mouth twice a day. And when you feel like your coming down with something and with in 24 hours you too can feel great again. |
| Constipation | I was having alot of trouble with constipation. I took a empty vegetable capsule and placed 6 drops of peppermnint in the capsule. I took one capsule before bed and one in the morning and was pleased with my experience. If I have bloating and gas it helps it to disappear. |
| Depression | I use Joy on the wrists, behind my ears about 2-3 times a day for depression. And Valor on my feet. What a change these oils have made in my life they truly are a gift from God - it is great! |
| Diarrhea | One or two drops of Di-Gize rubbed on the tummy and low back area brings on formed stools by the next bathroom visit. These oils are amazing! |
| Heartburn | 2 drops of Peppermint on the tummy and 1-2 drops on the tounge and let the peppermint work! You will be amazed! |
| Eczema | Mix 1/2 a cup of olive oil with a few drops of Lavendar on the opposite sides of her elbow and backs of her legs. Both sites have healed nicely with minimal discoloration and are smooth and not itchy. If you happen to have an extreme case you can apply neat 4-6 times a day as needed. Lavender helps and sooths the skins and stops the itch. |
Edema (Swelling of Feet/Hands) | Purification diluted with grapeseed oil 2 to 3 times a day (or as need for discomfort). While the skin is healing keep applying until the nagging itch is gone. Purification is a cinch to help with mosquito bites too. |
| Tired/Drowiness | Ningxia Red has supplied the support I have needed to get up and get going again. I have also found that a drop of Young Living's Peppermint Oil in water is very invigorating. And taking the bottle and just inhaling the Peppermint for 5-6 deep breaths also helps with mental alterness. I diffuse it in my car also especially when I am overly tired. Helps keep me alert. |
| Fever | I have had great success using peppermint on the bottom of the feet to bring down a fever. Undiluted on adults...DILUTE when using on children. The ratio should be a 4 to 1 ratio. (4 of a carrier oil and one drop of Peppermint for children under 4 yrs. old) |
| Flu | 4-6 drops of Thieves directly on the tounge. Hold in your mouth for as log as you can stand it and swallow slowly. Do this 3 times during the first day and by the second NO more flu symptoms. |
| Bad Breath | 1 drop of Peppermint oil on the tounge and it is gone! |
| Headaches/Migrains | I used to have horrible migraines and I tried everything I could find, took over the counter stuff, but found no real relief. I used 2 drops of helichrysum and 2 drops of peppermint oil on the base of my neck and within a couple of minutes the migraine was gone. I never had one leave that fast before it was so much better than using my regular medication which makes me nauseated and groggy. Using the Oils is a very natural way of relieving the pain and with no side effects. It's been several months now and I have used this same remedy 2 other times with great success. My migraines have all but disapeared. |
| Hives | Lavender or Purification helps very much. Just apply neat to the location and it stops it almost on contact! |
| Insect Bites | Purification or lavender take care of the itchies. apply neat to the location. |
| Sore Muscles | There are several oils Ed uses... PanaAway if it is bad, Relieve It after excercise, Peppermint is its hot out side, Palo Santo, Winter Green. Use 2-3 drops of oil depending on the pain level sometimes one drop does it. Apply oils where the pain is. always use caution after applying the peppermint it takes it a while to wear off. ***These oils do not wash off the hands.*** They have to wear off, and that usually takes about 15 to 20 minutes..... A little side note.... anytime you use oils with your hands you are getting benefits of the oils as well. Because the oils are entering your system as well. |
| Nausea | Any time I have indigestion or heartburn, I use pepermint oil. I put a drop in a glass of cold water, and I rub 1-2 drops on my tummy and within minutes I feel better. When I had a case of food poisoning, I drank my peppermint water and just smell the oil to carry me through the nausea. It was a life saver. |
| Psoriasis | Melrose applied directly to the infected area 2-3 time a day. Wonderful Oil! |
| Snoring | I found Thyme listed in the desk reference and ever since then, I happily put a drop on the soles of my feet at bedtime and I am tols that I sleep without a sound. I'm amazed. |
| Sore Throat | 2-4 drops on the tounge and let the oil Thieves tickle down your thorat and the pain is all but gone instantly! |
| Stress | This is a very new oil called RutaVala it is amazing oil from Ecuador. Very little is needed to calm me down. A little behind each ear and behind the brain stem/back of neck. You have to try it to believe it! |
| Wrinkles | Frankincense is widely know for it skin repairing abilities. And its all true! the skin care system Young Living offers has Frankincense in it and I use them and I use a little dab of Frankincense just before the creams, about 4 times a week and the wrinkles are disapearing. No surgery for me! |
Weight Loss | Grapefruit oil is what I am using now and I have lost about 15 lbs. in a month's time. Not everyone will get these results, because everyone is different. I am on a exercise regimne also. Doctor says I am doing great! |
