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.
I love to use the essential oils. I have made some oil blends to help my kids go to bed faster. I use Orange, the Peace & Calming and Valor blends, Lavender oil, Valerian, Lemon, and Marjoram.
After mixing these oils in V-6 or massage oils and applied on my kid's back and feet at night, in about 15 to 20 minutes they go to sleep. This gives me a rest from the wild hyper kids. My oldest daughter, Vanessa, is 17 years old, and has a difficult time sleeping so I use the oils and she goes to sleep better.
Other oils I used for my husband's athletes foot were Tea Tree, Lavender and Peppermint. His foot has cleared up and does not itch anymore.
We are grateful for the oils as they can be used for many different issues.
