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.
Five days ago, my neighbors kitten suddenly got very sick. We rushed him to the vet and the vet told her it seemed to be a virus attacking either his brain or ears. There was nothing the vet could do unless she wanted to spend hundreds of dollars on tests. The vet said to take the kitten home and just make life comfortable for him as he would not make it.
It was awful to watch the kitten, he could not hold his neck up and walked with what looked like a broken neck, just dragging his head. He also walked sideways like he had vertigo and could not keep his balance. He even laid down on the ground in a very funny position.
I went home and got V-6, along with the DiGize, Thieves and Melrose oil blends. Then I mixed a couple of drops of each of them all together. We began by applying the oil mix on his paws 3x a day.
Today, he is just about back to his old self. His head is high, he is eating and drinking water regularly and has his appetite back. It's wonderful that this kitten is almost back to normal.

These oils exert a number of general effects from the pharmacological viewpoint. When applied locally, the essential oils mix readily with skin oils, allowing these to attack the infective agents quickly and actively.... In vitro studies [were] conducted by the author on antimicrobial and anthelmintic [destructive to parasitic worms] properties of some essential oils...." | Link |
2. | Associated topics: nerve-pain — "The patient was successfully treated with topical peppermint oil [for postherpetic neuralgia, a complication of shingles].... The authors believe this is the first evidence of peppermint oil (or menthol) having a strong analgesic effect on neuropathic pain." | Link |

4. | Associated topics: nervous-system — "Aromatherapy... [consisting of] a blend of oils of lemon (Citrus limonum), lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), and ylang ylang (Cananga odorata)... is effective in lowering systolic blood pressure and sympathetic nerve system activity... of heart rate variability." | Link |
5. | Associated topics: nerve-pain — "Topical high-concentration L-menthol is the only established human experimental pain model to study mechanisms underlying cold hyperalgesia. We aimed at investigating the combinatorial effect of cold stimuli and topical L-menthol on cold pain and secondary mechanical hyperalgesia. Cold detection threshold and cold pain threshold (CPT) increased after L-menthol and remained high after the cold rekindling cycles.... Skin blood flow increased after L-menthol and stayed stable after cold cycles. Repeated application of cold on skin treated by L-menthol facilitated and prolonged L-menthol-induced cold pain and hyperalgesia." | Link |
