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 mother will be 90 this year and has advanced dementia. She fell and got a nasty bruise at the base of her spine. I went to the essential oils reference book to see what oils to try and was directed to Helichrysum oil to help with bruising, Lavender for skin, and Peppermint for pain. I had the care giver alternate these oils every 2 hours, 1-2 drops of each oil.
The healing of the bruise was remarkable, but unexpectedly my mother became very happy and started to be able to carry on a coherent conversation - something she had not done in a long time.
Puzzled, I went back to the reference book to try to understand what was happening. I cross referenced information and found that Helichrysum stimulates the neurotransmitters of the brain and is uplifting to the subconscious.
In addition, the oils were applied at the base of the spine which probably had more of an effect on the brain. Even more amazing, she had been taking long naps, sleeping most of her days away. She started reading and I now check out large print books from the library for her and she has finished 5 books!
This showed me that we may use the oils to achieve one result and other wonderful side results can occur. Until you try them, you don't know what amazing things can happen.

| 2. | Associated topics: helichrysum-oil — "...its flowers and leaves are the most used parts in the treatment of health disorders such as allergies, colds, cough, skin, liver and gallbladder disorders, inflammation, infections and sleeplessness... In vitro studies characterized Helichrysum as an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory agent. Its flavonoids and terpenes were effective against bacteria (e.g. Staphylococcus aureus), its acetophenones, phloroglucinols and terpenoids displayed antifungal action against Candida albicans and its flavonoids and phloroglucinols inhibited HSV and HIV, respectively.... Regarding Helichrysum italicum in vivo activity, the highlight goes to ...the anti-inflammatory properties exhibited by its flavonoids, acetophenones and phloroglucinols, as seen in animal models." | Link |
