GINA GINA: what a beautiful day...TODAY: Healing wounds with Essential Oils

Weather you have a cut, scrap, scratch, puncture or insect bite, there is Essential Oil that can help to quicken the healing process. Essential Oils contain many medicinal properties from being anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral, antiseptic, to analgesic, from anti-inflammatory and antibiotic, to homeostatic (helps stop the bleeding). The properties in Essential Oils are absolutely amazing. Most of the over-the-counter products for these wounds, have petroleum products in them. The molecule of petroleum salves are too big to penetrate the skin, so they sit on top. Essential Oils, on the other hand, their molecules are small and are absorbed right into the skin, Essential Oils can even penetrate the blood brain barrier.

All Essential Oils contain MANY of the properties listed above. The following suggestions are just a few applications for the named Essential Oil:

Antibiotic:
Lemon, Oregano, Melaleuca

Disinfecting an abrasion (sore, cut, wound, bite):
Melaleuca, Clove, Rosemary, Oregano, Thyme

Infected cuts and wounds:
Clove, Myrrh, Lavender

Scarring:
Helichrysum, Lavender, Geranium (different type of scars, different essential oil)

Stop Bleeding (hemostatic oils (help clot blood)):
Rose, Helichrysum, Geranium, Lemon

Pain Relief:
Lavender, Marjoram, Wintergreen, Sandalwood

Lavender and Melaleuca are two of the best essential oils for all around wound healing.

This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the beneficial powers and properties of Essential Oils. It is my belief that there is an Essential Oil out there for almost every ailment known to mankind. Next time you're in need try one of these instead of an "over the counter"ointment, it's a healthier way to heal.

You will soon be able to order your favorite healing Essential Oil Blend from my GINA GINA online boutique....keep an eye out:)

Have a beautiful evening.........

*CAUTION: if you have any concerns or questions, please seek professional medical advice. ALSO: as always, Essential Oils are extremely powerful, a very small amount goes a long way, dilute when necessary, and use with extreme care and caution, and if in question CONSULT your physician...
