Respiratory System Essential Oil Blend

Aromatic Use: Add a few drops to a diffuser to create an environment that supports respiratory health and helps clear the air of bacteria and pollutants. Perfect for use during cold and flu season or when combating indoor and outdoor pollution.

Topical Use: Pour a couple of drops into your hand, massage onto the chest, or cup your hands and inhale deeply to alleviate respiratory issues and decongest. Applying to specific points will enhance the respiratory benefits:

• Chest (Lung Area): Applying here directly supports lung function and can help open the airways, providing relief from congestion.
• Back of the Neck (below the hairline): This helps relieve tension and supports upper respiratory health, especially if congestion is causing tightness.
• Acupoint LI-4 (Hegu): Located between the thumb and index finger, this acupoint is known to help reduce headaches, sinus pressure, and congestion. Massage a diluted drop here to support clearer breathing.
• Acupoint LU-1 (Zhongfu): Found on the chest, below the collarbone, this point supports lung health and can help open the chest to relieve congestion and breathing difficulties.

Nasal Flush: Add a drop of the blend to saline water for a nasal flush to clear nasal passages and fight off infections in the respiratory tract.

Inhalation: Pour a couple of drops into your hands, cup them over your nose and mouth, and inhale deeply to clear respiratory congestion and soothe irritated airways.
