Essential Oils and Inflammation

Hi Everyone!

Essential oils are increasing in their popularity and use as treatments in holistic personal healthcare.  There are many sources and brands of oils available, but it is essential to your health that you use pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils when using them in a medicinal capacity.  Otherwise, you run the risk of toxicity and/or not achieving the desired outcome.

Essential oils are the volatile liquids that are distilled from plants and their respective parts.  Purity is determined by the many factors including the chemical constituents of the essential oil.  Not all of the chemical constituents can be duplicated by chemists so chose oils that are 100% pure and are not synthesized substitutes or diluted in carrier oils.

I choose to work with doTERRA* essential oils because I've researched them and have come to trust them; and they work for me.  Once again, whatever brand you choose, make sure they are providing 100% pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils. 

My doTERRA instructor recommended  Modern Essentials: The Complete Guide to the Therapeutic Use of Essential Oils from Aroma Tools, a company that provides aromatherapy tools and essential oil education materials and I rely on it for the majority of my therapeutic uses and blends of oils. 
I have created an essential oil blend using a combination of their recommended oils for inflammation that works really well for me.  I have shared this blend with family and friends and they have all reported that it works well for them too.  

The oils recommended for inflammation in Modern Essentials are as follows:

     Primary:  frankincense, melaleuca, eucalyptus, oregano, Soothing Blend.

     Secondary:  lavender, cardamom, patchouli, Roman chamomile, myrrh, rosemary, peppermint, 
          wintergreen, clove, thyme, geranium, helichrysum, copaiba, Anti-Aging Blend, juniper berry,              cedarwood.

     Other:  Restful Blend, lemongrass, cypress.

Warning:  Please consult this or another essential oil guide as well as your health care practitioner for the proper use, delivery and dilution of these oils as well as for interactions with other conditions and medications.

*  I do not list doTERRA essential oils on this website because it is an infraction of the terms of use agreement.  If you would like more information on essential oils, doTERRA, or blending please send an email to: media@ProperHealthSolutions.com 

Have a great day.  

To your Health!
