My sister-in-law was visiting and complained of her constant earache. She has been hard of hearing since she was young and wears a hearing aid all the time.
She has had many ear operations, but the constant ache and fluid that builds up in the ear canal would wake her up in the middle of the night.
I offered to rub 2 drops of Helichrysum on the outside of the ear on the bone. My sister-in-law was amazed at how fast the oil worked.
How exactly does Helichrysum do so much for the human body? According to studies done so far, scientists believe that part of the reason is the strong antioxidant properties -- especially in the form of acetophenones and phloroglucinols -- present within Helichrysum oil.
It's always best to buy a high-quality product and to check that the active ingredient is pure and preferably organic. Also, only use therapeutic grade essential oils. You can know that the source you're buying is high quality by checking that the genus species to be labeled Helichrysum italicum.
She was able to sleep better and has been using a couple drops daily with no earache again.
She ordered a bottle of the oil the next day.
