Essential Oil: Tea Tree + Lavender


I am one of those people that feels there is room in the medical field for both sides of info: natural and scientific.  We have been blessed with great information and minds that are always trying to help the human race for the better.  I think any product or information that can help us, has a place.  That said, I've been trying to learn more about the benefits of essential oils lately.  I've always known essential oils can be helpful, I've just never really put the time in to finding out specifically what they are good for.  Well, here are two essential oils that I've been using for a few months now that I find very useful and very helpful.

Lavender Essential Oil has an enormous amount of benefits.  Lavender has a calming scent which makes it an excellent tonic for the nerves. Therefore, it helps in treating migraines, headaches, anxiety, depression, nervous tension and emotional stress.  It also helps induce sleep, sore muscles, tense muscles, muscular aches, sprains, and backaches. It is great to use with burns, sunburns, acne, wrinkles, and inflammations.  I've used it in the vaporizer to help with a cold or cough.  I've also used it to put on my children when they get mosquito bites. It can help repel mosquitoes.

Go here to find out the many, many other ways Lavender Oil can be beneficial.

Tea Tree Oil has wonderful properties that makes it a popular natural agent for curing all three types of infectious organisms: fungus, bacteria, and virus. 
It’s an antibacterial, anti-fungal, and a disinfectant oil.  It can be used for cuts, burns, sunburns, blisters, rashes, insect bites, acne, yeast infections, dandruff, sore throat, congestion, cold sores, and warts, just to name a few benefits.  I've recently used it to help with an ear infection.

CAUTION: it can be very dangerous to kids and even adults if taken internally, so please read more information on it before using. Check here for more info.

  1. Love your blog. Love that you want to share good things you have found with others.

    Great blog post. Love both of those oils. I use Tea Tree all the time to get rid of my canker sores. You can ingest both Lavender and Tea Tree also known as Melaleuca oil if you are using a pure oil with no fillers or carrier oils. I've been ingesting oils for over five years with no negative side effects, only healing. There are essential oils with supplement facts right on the bottle that are safe to ingest.

    Feel free to contact me if you want more info.

    Thanks again for sharing your love of essential oils, they are the best!
