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 sister-in-law had numbness in her fingers and wrists that kept her awake at night.

So she applied a few drops of Peppermint oil and found that it gave her some relief.

She reapplied the oil every time the feeling returned, using it 6 or 8 times a day at first, then less frequently as the effect lasted longer. Eventually, she was using it only once before bedtime.

She now only uses it occasionally and has no more numbness.
