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 husband has snored very loudly for years now, and has brief periods during the night when he stops breathing at the end of each snore and I gently rub his arm to get him to breath again. It was really hard for me to get a good night's rest.

We tried rubbing 3-4 drops of the Valor oil blend on the bottom of his feet, on each big toe, and behind his neck one night, and as he drifted off to sleep I was shocked to find that his snoring was more of a loud breathing and he didn't have any episodes of his stop breathing pattern.

While he was on a recent trip to visit family, he forgot to apply the Valor and his mom reported that he was snoring so loudly that she could hear it through the walls!

He has been using it again ever since and it continues to work!
