Alleviating Allergies

My 12 year old daughter inherited her dad’s allergies and sinus issues. Thus far, she won’t even hear me about the Netipot, so all along we’ve been dealing with it the western medicinal way: Zyrtec pills and Nasacort spray. I let it lapse during the summer, and then decided to try something else. As soon as she got the plugged nose and sinuses, I decided to try some of my alternative methods. I’ve found two that are working in tandem and seem to alleviate symptoms.

The first is Lavender Essential Oil, rubbed on the back of her neck. This is the only oil I put on her upper body in the mornings, as some essential oils are more pungent, and with all the sensitivities in other kids, I don’t want to send her into school smelling like a potpourri of earthy scents. (Someone actually mentioned her ‘smelling weird’ one time when I put an essential oil for focus on her. Lesson learned.) Why Lavender Oil? It seems to be the go-to oil for every purpose. In this instance, it’s a natural antihistamine. So the back of the neck is a perfect place to apply. The lavender absorbs into the skin, into the bloodstream and then is distributed to the body.

The second is Breathe Respiratory Essential Oil Blend by DoTerra. I will diffuse this in my daughter’s bedroom at night when she’s really congested as an added boost. For daily use, I rub coconut oil on her feet, and then apply 1 drop of Breathe to each foot, rubbing in vigorously all over the plantar surface of the foot, and on each digit. After the first application, within a half hour, my daughter looked at me and exclaimed, “Wow, mom, I can actually smell stuff now!” After that, we’re sold on the Breathe Respiratory Blend. It’s a ritual that we do daily (yes, I’ve started too...keeps any seasonal stuffiness for me away too). Have a healthier allergy season thanks to natural remedies!
