All Natural Bursitis Support

doTERRA Essential Oil Support For:

Bursitis

Bursitis is the inflammation of the fluid-filled sack located close to the joints that provide lubrication for tendons, skin, and ligaments rubbing against the bone. Bursitis is caused by infections, injury, chronic over use, or diseases such as arthritis and gout. It causes tenderness and pain which can limit movement.

Sometimes the cause cannot be determined. Bursitis commonly occurs in the shoulder, knee, elbow, and hip. Other areas that may be affected include the Achilles tendon and the foot.

Chronic inflammation can occur with repeated injuries or attacks of bursitis.

Those with Bursitis have noticed:

  • Joint pain and tenderness when you press around the joint
  • Stiffness and achiness when you move the affected joint
  • Swelling, warmth or redness over the joint

    doTERRA Essential Oils work perfectly with the body to support normal functions of the body and dōTERRA products are safe to use on all ages.

    ———

    doTERRA Essential Oil Users Have Found The Following To Assist In Bursitis Support:

    Take 2-3 drops Frankincense Oil , Basil Oil and Lemon Oil  in capsules daily

    In the morning: Apply 1-3 drops each of Balance Oil Blend, White Fir Oil  and Basil Oil on location. Alternate cold & hot packs (10 min cold then 15 min hot).

    During the day:  Rub 2-3 drops of AromaTouch Blend then Rub a dime size of Deep Blue Rub on location.

    In the evening: Apply 6 drops Marjoram Oil on location (and surrounding area) and wait 6 minutes. Then apply 3 drops of Wintergreen Oil  and wait 6 minutes. Then apply 3 drops of Cypress Oil.

    Apply Balance Oil and/or Roman Chamomile Oil to bottoms of feet, nightly.

     —

    Additional Help:

    Take LifeLong Vitality Pack Supplements daily (they contain Tumeric (very effective anti-inflammatory. In animal studies turmeric was as effective as cortisone, and it didn’t have any side effects)

    EAT FRESH ORGANIC PINEAPPLE: Pineapples contain bromelain, an enzyme that studies have shown reduces inflammation in sports injuries, such as bursitis, and reduces swelling

    HEEL: If you have bursitis on your heel, you probably got it because of improperly fitting shoes. The solution is simple: Toss the shoes, and put on a better-fitting pair.

    KNEES & ELBOWS: Search for ways to adjust the activity or habit that sparked the pain to lessen the stress it puts on your joints. If crawling around in the garden or laying flooring has left you with bursitis of the knee, get yourself a low stool to sit on instead or buy a pair of sturdy, well-cushioned kneepads. If leaning on your elbows while reading has caused your elbows to swell and ache, use a book holder to prop up your reading material and take the weight off your arms.

    SHOULDER: Another gentle exercise you can do to restore your shoulder’s range of motion is to crawl your hand up the wall, like a spider. Make it a laid-back spider, however. Anything other than slow, controlled movement within the joint’s natural range of motion during the healing process may do more harm than good.

Essential Oil Support for Children with Down Syndrome

doTERRA Essential Oil Support For:

Down Syndrome

Down syndrome is a genetic disorder that causes lifelong mental retardation, developmental delays and other problems. Down syndrome varies in severity, so developmental problems range from moderate to serious.

Down syndrome is the most common genetic cause of learning disabilities in children.

Increased understanding of Down syndrome and early interventions make a big difference in the lives of both children and adults with Down syndrome.

—-

Children with Down syndrome have a distinct facial appearance. Though not all children with Down syndrome have the same features, some of the more common features are:

  • Flattened facial features
  • Small head
  • Short neck
  • Protruding tongue
  • Upward slanting eyes, unusual for the child’s ethnic group
  • Unusually shaped ears

Children with Down syndrome may also have:

  • Poor muscle tone
  • Broad, short hands with a single crease in the palm
  • Relatively short fingers
  • Excessive flexibility

Infants with Down syndrome may be of average size, but typically they grow slowly and remain shorter than other children of similar age. In general, developmental milestones, such as sitting and crawling, occur at about twice the age of children without impairment. Children with Down syndrome also have some degree of mental retardation, most often in the mild to moderate range.

Causes:

Down syndrome results when one of three types of abnormal cell division involving chromosome 21 occurs. All three cell division abnormalities result in extra genetic material from chromosome 21, which is responsible for the characteristic features and developmental problems of Down syndrome. The three genetic variations that can cause Down syndrome include:

  • Trisomy 21. More than 90 percent of the time, Down syndrome is caused by trisomy 21. A child with trisomy 21 has three copies of chromosome 21 — instead of the usual two copies — in all of his or her cells. This form of Down syndrome is caused by abnormal cell division during the development of the sperm cell or the egg cell.
  • Mosaic Down syndrome. In this rare form of Down syndrome, children have some cells with an extra copy of chromosome 21. This mosaic of normal and abnormal cells is caused by abnormal cell division after fertilization.
  • Translocation Down syndrome. Down syndrome can also occur when part of chromosome 21 becomes attached (translocated) onto another chromosome, before or at conception. Children with translocation Down syndrome have the usual two copies of chromosome 21, but they also have additional material from chromosome 21 attached to the translocated chromosome. This form of Down syndrome is uncommon.

There are no known behavioral or environmental factors that cause Down syndrome.

Is it inherited?
Most of the time, Down syndrome isn’t inherited. It’s caused by abnormal cell division during the development of the egg, sperm or embryo.

————–

Children with Down syndrome can have a variety of complications, some of which become more prominent as they get older, including:

  • Heart defects. Approximately half the children with Down syndrome are born with some type of heart defect. These heart problems can be life-threatening and may require surgery in early infancy.
  • Leukemia. Young children with Down syndrome are more likely to develop leukemia than are other children.
  • Infectious diseases. Because of abnormalities in their immune systems, those with Down syndrome are much more susceptible to infectious diseases, such as pneumonia.
  • Dementia. Later in life, people with Down syndrome have a greatly increased risk of dementia. Signs and symptoms of dementia often appear before age 40 in people with Down syndrome. Those who have dementia also have a higher rate of seizures.
  • Sleep apnea. Because of soft tissue and skeletal alterations that lead to the obstruction of their airways, children with Down syndrome are at greater risk of obstructive sleep apnea.
  • Obesity. People with Down syndrome have a greater tendency to be obese than does the general population.
  • Other problems. Down syndrome may also be associated with other health conditions, including gastrointestinal blockage, thyroid problems, early menopause, seizures, hearing loss, premature aging, skeletal problems and poor vision.

These special children develop more slowly and usually have poor muscle tone.  Poor muscle tone affects their bowels, their ability to sit up, crawl and walk and even may cause their tongue to hang out of their mouths a bit. They do eventually learn to sit up, crawl and walk, so that is not a big issue. My only comment about this is to encourage them to crawl as long as possible and DON’T push them to walk. Crawling is very good for the brain development.

—————————–

doTERRA Essential Oil Users Have Found The Following To Assist In Supporting Those With Down Syndrome:

Rub 1-2 drops of  Frankincense Oil on bottom of feet & back of neck daily (all ages-helps with DNA support as well proactive treatment for leukemia and thyroid issues)

Massage arm & leg muscles with AromaTouch Oil Blend and Deep Blue Rub regularly. (A little goes a very long way)

Rub 1-2 drops of Balance Oil Blend on on the big toes several times a day. (This will help with brain function support)

Constipation:

Rub 1 drop DigestZen Oil Blend on abdomen at every diaper change. (if continues as getting older-can increase up to 2-3 drops once to twice daily)

Sinus & Lung Congestion:

Rub 1-2 drops of Breathe Oil Blend on chest & bottom of feet. (as child gets older, you can increase dosage & put under nose)

Diffuse Eucalyptus or Breathe Oil blend in the air at night

Immunity Support:

Make anti-bacterial spray to disinfect home, car, hand sanitizer and especially when traveling:

In a glass 4 oz spray bottle mix 6 drops On Guard Oil Blend, 4 drops Purify Oil Blend, 5 drops Wild Orange Oil, 7 drops Lavender Oil-fill the rest with distilled water (bottles available at http://www.aromatools.com)

Rub 1 drop of On Guard Oil Blend on bottom of each foot nightly (as child gets older, can increase up to 3-4 drops per foot and/or take in capsule form)

For other complications: see treatments on this blog for that specific issue or email me at doterralife@gmail.com

——

Additional Help:

These children respond greatly to massage… experiment with different oils & blends to see which ones your child has the best response.  (back, arms & legs)

As for the tongue, if it hangs out all the time, then the roof of the mouth doesn’t develop a nice arch, which makes for a smaller mouth and crowded teeth. To try to work on this, keep the child smiling! A smiling child keeps their tongue in. Also, don’t use a sippy cup as this doesn’t encourage the correct tongue movement. Try to teach the child to move from a bottle to a straw. A good way to do this is to insert a straw into a honey bear container (empty of honey and filled with water). Let the straw only protrude just a bit. You squeeze the liquid into their mouth and they eventually catch on to suck on the straw to get the liquid. Once taught, they are good with straws, which strengthens their tongue.

As child gets older, add the Lifelong Vitality Pack supplements to daily routine (for increased DNA and Brain Function support)

Essential Oil AIDS Support

doTERRA Essential Oil Support For:

AIDS

AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) is the final stage of HIV disease, which causes severe damage to the immune system.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) causes AIDS. The virus attacks the immune system and leaves the body vulnerable to a variety of life-threatening infections and cancers.

Common bacteria, yeast, parasites, and viruses that usually do not cause serious disease in people with healthy immune systems can cause fatal illnesses in people with AIDS.

HIV has been found in saliva, tears, nervous system tissue and spinal fluid, blood, semen (including pre-seminal fluid, which is the liquid that comes out before ejaculation), vaginal fluid, and breast milk. However, only blood, semen, vaginal secretions, and breast milk have been shown to transmit infection to others.

The virus can be spread (transmitted):

  • Through sexual contact — including oral, vaginal, and anal sex
  • Through blood — via blood transfusions (now extremely rare in the U.S.) or needle sharing
  • From mother to child — a pregnant woman can transmit the virus to her fetus through their shared blood circulation, or a nursing mother can transmit it to her baby in her breast milk

Other methods of spreading the virus are rare and include accidental needle injury, artificial insemination with infected donated semen, and organ transplantation with infected organs.

HIV infection is NOT spread by:

  • Casual contact such as hugging
  • Mosquitoes
  • Participation in sports
  • Touching items that were touched by a person infected with the virus

    ——-

    AIDS begins with HIV infection. People who are infected with HIV may have no symptoms for 10 years or longer, but they can still transmit the infection to others during this symptom-free period. If the infection is not detected and treated, the immune system gradually weakens and AIDS develops.

    Almost all people infected with HIV, if they are not treated, will develop AIDS. There is a small group of patients who develop AIDS very slowly, or never at all. These patients are called nonprogressors, and many seem to have a genetic difference that prevents the virus from significantly damaging their immune system.

    The symptoms of AIDS are mainly the result of infections that do not normally develop in people with a healthy immune system. These are called opportunistic infections.

    People with AIDS have had their immune system damaged by HIV and are very susceptible to these opportunistic infections.

    Those with AIDS have noticed:

    • Chills
    • Fever
    • Sweats (particularly at night)
    • Swollen lymph glands
    • Weakness
    • Weight loss

      AIDS is a pandemic in the world today and it is estimated that over 30 million people in the world are infected.  In the United States it was the number one killer of young adults and by 2009 this has been reduced to number six.

      There is no cure for AIDS at this time. However, a variety of all natural support is available that can help keep symptoms at bay and improve the quality of life for those who have already developed symptoms.

      Although the literature indicates that, to date, no antiviral agents have been found that will defeat the HIV there are a number of ways to consider that doTERRA’s Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade essential oils can help.

All Natural Sickle Cell Anemia Support

doTERRA Essential Oil Support for

Sickle Cell Anemia

Sickle cell anemia is a disease passed down through families in which red blood cells form an abnormal crescent shape. (Red blood cells are normally shaped like a disc.)

Sickle cell anemia is caused by an abnormal type of hemoglobin called hemoglobin S. Hemoglobin is a protein inside red blood cells that carries oxygen. Hemoglobin S changes the shape of red blood cells, especially when the cells are exposed to low oxygen levels. The red blood cells become shaped like crescents or sickles.

The fragile, sickle-shaped cells deliver less oxygen to the body’s tissues. They can also get stuck more easily in small blood vessels, and break into pieces that interupt healthy blood flow.

Sickle cell anemia is inherited from both parents. If you inherit the hemoglobin S gene from one parent and normal hemoglobin (A) from your other parent, you will have sickle cell trait. People with sickle cell trait do not have the symptoms of sickle cell anemia.

Sickle cell disease is much more common in people of African and Mediterranean descent. It is also seen in people from South and Central America, the Caribbean, and the Middle East.

Those with Sickle Cell have noticed:

Most issues usually don’t occur until after age 4 months.

Almost all patients with sickle cell anemia have painful episodes (called crises), which can last from hours to days. These crises can affect the bones of the back, the long bones, and the chest.

Some patients have one episode every few years. Others have many episodes per year. The crises can be severe enough to require a hospital stay.

Common issues include:

Attacks of abdominal pain,  Bone pain, Breathlessness, Delayed growth and puberty, Fatigue, Fever, Paleness, Rapid heart beat, ulcers on lower legs (in adolescents and adults), Yellowing of the eyes and skin (jaundice).

Less Common issues include:

Chest pain, Excessive thirst, Frequent urination, Poor eyesight/blindness, Strokes.

All Natural Scleroderma Support

doTERRA Essential Oil Support For:

Scleroderma

Scleroderma is a connective tissue disease that involves changes in the skin, blood vessels, muscles, and internal organs. It is a type of autoimmune disorder, a condition that occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys healthy body tissue.

The cause of scleroderma is unknown. People with this condition have a buildup of a substance called collagen in the skin and other organs. This buildup leads to the symptoms of the disease.

The disease usually affects people 30 to 50 years old. Women get scleroderma more often than men do.

Some types of scleroderma affect only the skin, while others affect the whole body.

  • Localized scleroderma usually affects only the skin on the hands and face. It develops slowly, and rarely, if ever, spreads throughout the body or causes serious complications.
  • Systemic scleroderma, or sclerosis, may affect large areas of skin and organs such as the heart, lungs, or kidneys. There are two main types of systemic scleroderma: Limited disease (CREST syndrome) and diffuse disease.

    -

    Skin problems of Scleroderma may include:

    Fingers or toes that turn blue or white in response to hot and cold temperatures,  Hair loss,  Skin hardness, Skin that is abnormally dark or light, Skin thickening, stiffness-(tightness of fingers, hands, and forearm),   Sores (ulcers) on the fingertips or toes,  Tight and mask-like skin on the face

    Details of  Recommended Oils:

    Deep Blue Rub:  It is a blend of some of the most effective analgesics, and anti inflammatory oils that exist. Blue Tansy, Camphor, Helichrysum, Osmanthus, Peppermint and wintergreen to name a few. Wintergreen is an oil often associated with analgesic creams such as icy-hot and Ben-Gay. Primarily because these products use a synthetically produced chemical (methyl salicylate) that originates from wintergreen (gaultheria procumbent) and has proven effective as a warming pain reliever. However by using Deep Blue, you actually experience the product in its natural 100% pure state.

All Natural Multiple Sclerosis Support

doTERRA Essential Oil MS Support

Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis is a progressive, disabling disease of the nervous system (brain and spinal cord). MS is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s own immune system attacks the nerves. Some researchers believe that MS is triggered by a virus, while others make a case that it has strong genetic or environmental component.

-

The nervous system is composed of multiple nerve cells connected with Axons that deliver the electrical impulses to and from the brain.  The Axon is protected by a sheath of fatty acid substance called the Myelin sheath.  Multiple sclerosis is a condition wherein the body mistakenly attacks this Myelin sheath (hence an autoimmune disease) which in turn disrupts the communication between the brain and various parts of the body.

Nerve

The early symptoms may come and go and hence it is difficult to have a definitive diagnosis.  The early symptoms may include numbness, tingling, or weakness in the extremities.  Trouble swallowing, bad balance, dizziness, poor memory or concentration, or trouble with hearing or with vision may also occur.  Since, as damage to the nerves continue, further deterioration is experienced later symptoms may include the inability to walk or talk.

doTERRA Essential Oil Users Have Found The Following To Assist In Multiple Sclerosis Support:

Initial Cleanse

The Life Long Vitality supplements are a must. Start taking them as soon as possible.

Do the GX Assist and the PB Assist in a protocol of 10 days GX, 5 days PB, wait 10 days and repeat, wait 10 days and repeat. Wait two months and repeat again. This is a cleanse specifically designed for auto immune disease.

Drop 2-3 drops of Frankincense  under the tongue 4 times a day for two weeks.

——

Ongoing Support:

Continue the Lifelong Vitality supplements

Morning: Topically apply Peppermint to the bottoms of the feet, take internally, and diffuse.

During the day: add 1-3 drops of Lemon to each glass of water. (drink lots of water-use glass containers ONLY)

Evening:  Topically apply Frankincense to the bottoms of the feet, take internally, and diffuse.

Make a mix of  following MS recipe:

·    10 drops Helichrysum

·    10 drops Frankincense

·    10 drops Sandalwood

·    5 drops Basil

·    3 drops Peppermint

Rub 1-3 drops of the MS recipe on brain reflexology points, the forehead, temples and mastoids (just behind the ears) and massage 6-8 drops of oil blend from the base of the skull down the spine

-

Additional Help:

Other protocols (Listen to your body, it will tell you what you need).  Consider the following for their benefits:

·   If a flare up or an exacerbation occurs layer (topically apply one oil after another with 1 to 5 minutes between) Peppermint and Frankincense on the bottoms of the feet and/or the affected area.

·   If choking put 2-3 drops of Frankincense in a shot glass half full of water and swallow slowly.

·   If discouraged diffuse Citrus Bliss or other uplifting oils.

·   To prevent picking up a infectious disease (that might trigger an exacerbation) diffuse OnGuard or Purify regularly.  Rub OnGuard on the feet nightly.

============

Also consider these oils in supplemental ways:

·    Helichrysum – strong regenerative properties for nerve tissue

·    Sandalwood – similar properties as frankincense (antibacterial, antiviral, soothing)

·    Clove – one of the strongest agents to kill pathogens

Testimonials 

Michele (from webinar) - Using essential oils to help with MS has been a real blessing.  The LLV made a difference in energy in 3 or 4 days.  Using peppermint and frankincense for numbness and tingling symptoms was almost immediate.  My neurologist know of my using essential oils and is supportive.  A side benefit is that with the LLV plus the doTerra Skin Products I am told I look 15 years younger.

Heide (from webinar) - To help with my MS I initially tried frankincense and had such positive results I decided to use other products.  When I started using the LLV supplements I felt a definite difference in a week.  When I have had episodes of lost feeling or numbness in my limbs if I apply peppermint and frankincense I get almost immediate results.

All Natural Lou Gehrig’s Disease Support

doTERRA Essential Oil Support For:

Lou Gehrig’s Disease 

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis / (ALS)

Lou Gehrig’s disease or ALS affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord.  The particular nerve cells affected are the motor neuron cells that control the voluntary muscles. The cause of ALS in general is not known except for about 10 percent of the cases where the cause can be traced to a genetic defect.

Symptoms do not usually develop until a person is middle aged or beyond.  It is more common in men than women and is quite rare only occurring in less than .002% (2 in 100,000) of the population.  The gradual progression of the symptoms varies from individual to individual.  Some are only expected to live for a few years where others may survive for decades.

Symptoms for those with ALS result from the motor cells slowly deteriorating causing the person to loose control of certain functions and making it increasingly more difficult to perform ordinary functions.

This may begin with difficulty in simple movements, breathing, and swallowing. With time symptoms may progress to include difficulty with speech, twitching, increasing muscle weakness with more difficulty in movements, gagging or drooling, and muscle cramps or paralysis.

ALS does not affect the senses (sight, smell, taste, hearing, touch). It only rarely affects bladder or bowel function, or a person’s ability to think or reason.

There is no known cure for ALS… the support listed below is to greatly help.

doTERRA Essential Oils work perfectly with the body to support normal functions of the body and dōTERRA products are safe to use on all ages.

All Natural Lyme Disease Support

doTERRA Essential Oil Support For:

Lyme Disease

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection of the bacterium borrelia burgdorferi (also know as spirochete) which is carried by ticks from deer or mice to humans.  The infection has now been found in North America and also in Europe.

(the name comes from the town of Old Lyme, Connecticut where the disease was first identified in 1975)

Early symptoms of the infection may not be noticed or if noticed resemble flu symptoms such as fever, headaches, body aches, and muscle pain.  A “bulls eye” rash may occur at the spot of the tick bite.  Antibiotics at this early stage will likely provide complete recovery.

If not treated properly other symptoms may occur over time and persist disrupting a normal active life.  These later symptoms and complications may include chronic problems including arthritic type pain with inflammation of the joints.  There may also be brain or nervous system chronic problems including difficulty with memory, concentration, and vision.  Also reports have included symptoms such as widespread itching and mood changes.

Even after the bacterial infection has been arrested some report continued symptoms.  This has been labeled post-Lyme disease syndrome.  Extended symptoms are most commonly arthritic or heart related.

The Lyme disease tick:

The infected tick is commonly in wooded or grassy rural areas and most dangerous for transmittal in the spring, summer, to early fall season.  You must be bitten by a tick carrying the bacterium (not all ticks are carriers) and have it attached to your body to get Lyme disease.

The Black Legged Deer Tick

 Use common sense procedures to avoid ticks if you are in suspected areas:

·  Use an insect repellent

·  Wear long sleeve shirt

·  Wear high boots, tuck pants into socks

·  Check for ticks (light colored clothing make them easier to spot)

Deer ticks are small, especially in the nymph stage, so they may go undetected so watch for these signs.  The area of the bite usually will redden with the “bulls eye” pattern within 3 to 30 days.  Flu like symptoms will occur.

—————–

There are multiple phases of Lyme disease:

·  During the initial infectious stage (immediately after the tick bite) the use of an antibiotic protocols will be effective and if started early enough will eliminate further complications.

·  If the initial phase went undetected or untreated and some period of time passed before being diagnosed then the antibiotic protocols should be coupled with cleansing protocols and must be extended over a longer period of time.

·  If the infection is arrested but symptoms continue (post-Lyme disease syndrome) then the antibiotics and cleanses may not be necessary but Candida should be considered while addressing the symptoms.

doTERRA Essential Oil Users Have Found The Following To Assist In Lyme Disease Support:

In all cases the Life Long Vitality supplements should be used.

Click here to learn more about the supplements.

*Double the recommended use of EOMega from 4 capsules per day to 8 for those considered to be in the second phase as described above.

Antibiotic protocol

Put the following in a veggie capsule:

·   12 drops OnGuard Oil Blend

·   6 drops Oregano Oil

·   2 drops Frankincense Oil

One capsule per day for 14 days, rest 14 days and repeat.  During the 14 rest days apply 2 drops of  lemongrass and 1 drop of on guard on each foot before bedtime as well as take a probiotic daily.

With the antibiotic procedure be aware of the possibility of Herxheimer reaction* and if rashes or other symptoms occur reduce the daily dosage while continuing the procedure.  Remember that just the presence of a tick does not mean someone has Lyme disease.  Most do no start an antibiotic protocol unless the symptoms appear.

*Herxheimer reaction this occurs when large quantities of toxins are released into the body with a cleanse or using antibacterial oils as spirochetes bacterium die off.  The release of toxins may be faster than the body can remove them and result in fever, chills, headache, rash or other skin disorders. 

Cleanse (detoxify)

Use the full 15 day GX Assist/PB Assist procedure 3 times:

·   GX Assist (30 softgels taken 3 times a day over 10 days)

·   Followed by PB Assist (15 beadlets taken 3 times a day over 5 days)

·   rest 10 days.

·   repeat 2 more times.

Click here to learn more about GX & PB Assist

Other cleanses are described elsewhere and should be considered including doTERRA Zendocrine for detoxifying the liver, kidneys, colon, lungs, and skin.

Again be aware of the Herxheimer reaction and if rashes or other symptoms occur cut the daily dosage while continuing the procedure.  Return to full dosage as Herxheimer reactions subside.

—-

Supplements/Antibiotics/Cleanse sequence

·   If multiple protocols are necessary consider the following:  The Life Long Vitality supplements can be taken along with the antibiotic and cleansing procedures.

·   If the antibiotic and cleansing procedures are both needed it is prudent to sequence them starting with the antibiotic protocol, a 14 day rest, and then the cleanse.

TESTIMONIAL:

“I supposedly still have Lyme Disease in my blood. I was the 6th person to get it in the state of NM. I had to take antibiotics every 6 weeks for 6 months. Then because of all the antibiotics, I developed Candida. I had lots of joint pain and underlying flu like symptoms all the time. I was very sick. I started the rotation diet, and did that for two years, cutting out all sweets, all red sauce, bread…etc. When I started taking using essential oils 11 years ago my body started to clear itself of the toxins. Then when I started the doTERRA Life Long Vitatlity supplement last year I noticed a big improvement. When I don’t take them, (like I forget sometimes) I notice a big difference! I have also used several oils internally, frankincense, lavender, oregano, and melaleuca in a capsule. I don’t have much of the symptoms any more. Taking the Life Long Wellness supplements seems to be the key. ” – Jan

Essential Oils Improving Eyesight?

doTERRA Essential Oil Support For:

Presbyopia (Failing Eyesight)

Presbyopia or failing eyesight, is part of the normal aging process.  In the mid 40s many notice that they must hold items further away to be able to focus and read.  This is caused as the elasticity of the lens of the eye is lost.  This is commonly corrected by using eye glasses.

-

Other eye problems the treatment can help include:

Cataracts

Cataracts most often occur with aging but occasionally they can result after some eye surgery, eye trauma, diseases such as diabetes, from some forms or radiation, or as a congenital defect.  Cataracts may form in either or both eyes.  They happen as the lens of the eye clouds or fogs not allowing light to pass clearly through the lens to the retina.  The lens is made up of water and protein and with age this protein clumps together disrupting the clearness of the lens.  Some research suggests that beyond normal “wear and tear” smoking may be a cause.

-

Macular degeneration

Macular degeneration or AMD (age-related macular degeneration) is a disease that, over time, blurs the central zone of vision.  This eventually can affect ones ability to read and perform many everyday tasks.  It usually develops after age 60 and can affect one or both eyes.  There is no associated pain. In some it develops slowly and can go undetected for years whereas with others in develops quickly and results in serious vision loss.

Macular Degeneration of Eye

There are two types of AMD wet and dry.  With both types the macula, which is the center of the retina at the back of the eye, is compromised leading to blurred vision and eventual loss of central vision.   The more common type (90%) is the dry macular degeneration.  In this case the critical light-sensitive cells in the macula region of the retina slowly die causing a slow loss of vision.  Dry AMD can be detected before visible symptoms with a proper eye exam that can detect drusen, small yellow deposits under the retina, that are a precursor to the disease.  Without an eye exam symptoms will begin with slightly blurred vision.

Wet AMD occurs in the same area of the retina but the deterioration is caused by blood vessels that loose fluid and lift the macula causing the vision problems.  One early tell-tale symptom is that items that are straight lines will appear wavy.  This condition is also known as advanced AMD and the fluid loss and resulting damage develops quickly.

-

Glaucoma

Glaucoma may cause damage to the optic nerve and result in loss of sight.  The main body of the eye is filled with a fluid known as aqueous humor.  This fluid is continuously being replenished near the back of the eye and drains through a channel (called the angle) near the front of the eye.  If this drainage is impeded pressure builds in the eye and may damage the optic nerve.

Eye with glaucoma

There are four types of blockage or glaucoma that may occur.  Open-angle glaucoma is most common, it happens slowly over time and no cause is known.  It runs in families and is more common among African-Americans. Angle-closure glaucoma is when the channel is suddenly blocked. This causes painful pressure and is an emergency situation. Congenital glaucoma occurs when the exit channel does not develop properly at birth.  It is also hereditary.  Secondary glaucoma can be caused by some pharmaceutical medications or as a result of an eye disease like uveitis.

-

Retinal detachment

Retinal detachment of eye

Light travels through the cornea and lens and falls on the retina at the back of the eye.  The retina is a thin membrane that converts the images falling on it to signals to the brain.  If the retina becomes separated from the underlying tissue distortion in vision may occur.  The detachment of the retina may be caused by trauma, disease such as diabetes or inflammatory disorders, or it can happen without any underlying cause.  Symptoms of retinal detachment include blurred vision, partial lack of vision, bright flashes in peripheral vision, or floating spots in vision.

-

Iritis/uveitis

The middle layer of the eye the uvea is composed of the iris, ciliary body, and choroid.  From the uvea comes most of the blood supply for the retina.  Uveitis is inflammation or irritation to the uvea.  Most commonly this occurs in the iris and is known as iritis.  If it occurs near the back of the eye in choroid it is choroiditis.  This condition can stem from an infection elsewhere in the body or concurrent with some autoimmune disorders.  One or both eyes may be affected and the symptoms include redness in the eye, some pain, blurred vision, sensitivity to light, and/or floating spots in vision.

doTERRA Essential Oils work perfectly with the body to support normal functions of the body and dōTERRA products are safe to use on all ages.

doTERRA Essential Oil Users Have Found The Following To Assist In Supporting a number of eye sight issues:

Use the supportive oils like helichrysum and frankincense and the blend Immortelle (frankincense, helichrysum, lavender, myrrh, rose, sandalwood).

=

Application suggestions are:

•  One or two drops on the end of the finger and dab around the eye socket (not in the eye) 2 – 3 times a day.

•  Using the Immortelle roller bottle (or make a roller bottle with a selected oil/blend, (Dr. Hill recommended frankincense, cypress, lavender before Immortelle was available) and apply the oils around the eye socket 2 – 3 times a day.

•  Additionally (or in lieu of, if someone is highly sensitive to having oils applied around the eyes) rub the oils or blend on the reflexology point for eyes (at the base of and between the 1st and 2nd toes) 2 – 3 times a day.

-

Some eye problems, such as uveitis and iritis may stem from a systemic infection and the following are suggested:

•  Use the Immortelle or equal parts frankincense, cypress, and lavender (in a roller bottle if available) and apply around the eye socket as above but increase the frequency to 3 – 4 time daily and continue for a few days after the infection appears to have cleared.

•  Use a detoxifying cleanse such as the Zendocrine or GX Assist

TESTIMONIALS:

“I have been wearing uni-focal contacts for 12 years now.  This means that one eye is for reading and the other eye is for distance.  I am currently wearing the highest magnification that can be worn before going cross-eyed.  I still need “reading glasses” just to read, especially at work on night-shift.   To my total amazement, I have discovered that using Immortelle around my eyes, twice a day, I do not need the “readers.”  I only am using contacts and I can read even tiny print.  Yeah!” - Tanya

-

“I have worn prescription bifocals for over 10 years.  The other night I picked up some mail off the cabinet and naturally reached for my glasses.  I was almost startled to realize that at the moment I held up the letter and before I had put my glasses on, I could read the address!   I don’t need them any more.  I went in to have my eyes checked this last week and my ophthalmologist said that my eyes had improved and I did not require nearly as strong a prescription.  I now only wear glasses for night driving!  She said that it is unusual but not unheard of for peoples eye site to improve, and said; “whatever you are doing… keep it up!”

What am I doing?  I use frankincense around my eye sockets daily. Just a single drop.  Every two weeks I switch to helichrysum for a week.  I also take my LLW pack daily (Lifelong Vitality Pack).  I’m not sure where most of the help is coming from, but I’m glad to have the problem of not knowing for sure which is helping.” -BK

“I had iritis/uveitis in my right eye, and I tried a couple of different things and ended up really liking the frankincense/cypress/lavender blend – it’s been really good for the iritis, and my eye doctor thought it was healing faster than it “normally” would, which is great.

I was going through my routine facial stuff yesterday morning and noticed that under the right eye was less wrinkled than the left, so I decided that I needed to put it around both eyes. This is a great side effect, but there’s more! This morning, after my shower, I forgot to put my glasses on before I went downstairs, and I didn’t even notice it until I went to turn on my computer! I’ve been wearing bifocals for 5 years for presbyopia and astigmatism, so this was fairly astounding to me. And the really, really cool thing is …. I haven’t put my glasses on all day!!” -Vikki

“I did not have a tear or detachment, but could have easily. I had to take it easy for a whole month. I take a drop of frankincense under my tongue every morning (when I remember to) and have been putting it around the eye bone as often in the mornings as I can remember to. Also I use melaleuca and myrrh sometime as well. I still have the floater, but I don’t see it as much. I think it has helped. My vision has improved so that’s a plus and my wrinkles are not as noticeable.” -Jan
