Eucalyptus- mostly used for chest and nose congestion. It clears up even the most stubborn mucus associated with colds. Dab a bit on a warm wet wash cloth and inhale the vapors by holding it a few inches from your stuffy nose. It will open up your bronchial tubes and grant you the relief you need. You can also fill a bowl with warm water and add a couple of drops of eucalyptus oil to it. Breathe the healing vapors. It’s much better than most cough and cold medicines. We also put Eucalyptus in our diffuser and run it when we are feeling stuffed up in our noses from colds. Wonderful help and smells good too. We get our Eucalyptus from Mountain Rose Herbs.
Essential oils can also be used as a great rub. Mix the desired oil with lighter oil like olive or sweet almond oil to make the essential oil go farther and be easier to rub on your skin. Rub the oils on your neck, chest, and the bottoms of your feet for antibiotic effect to help fight viruses. It is much better for you to use essential oils than to use commercial medicines that may cause many different side effects. Be sure to use the oils correctly to maximize the effect that your looking for.
