Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


My wife has had seasonal allergies for years and has been taking Claritin for a long time. After hearing about the many properties of this "swiss army knife of oils", Lavender, she wanted to try it.

She applied several drops of the oil to her chakra points and behind the ears in the am and pm and whenever her ears began to fill up. Well, I can't stop her from telling others how this oil has helped wean her from the nasty allergy meds and naturally taken away almost all of the symptoms of her allergies.

It really works.
