Balsam Fir Testimonials
Relief For Aches And Pains
I find that when my body aches, I have good success using a
combination of Ortho Ease and Idaho Balsam Fir. I personally
like the beautiful Balsam fragrance, and can use it even if I'm going out, which
I don't always feel with some of the more "mentholly" smelling oils. I heard a
mother say that her son would not use the oils when leaving for school because
the odors were so distinctive. If you feel this way, you might want to consider
- for effective pain relief AND a lovely woodsy fragrance - the Idaho Balsam
Fir, and mix it with the pure V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex, which is essentially
odorless and helps to spread the oils over a larger surface."
Joy Linsley, from JOYOUS News
"I find that Idaho Balsam Fir works miracles for me. My
friend (a MT) was facilitating some work on a very anterior deltoid (front of
shoulder). I asked her to put on some Idaho Balsam Fir
essential Oil. Within a second (I'm not
exaggerating) I could feel the muscle begin to just melt. I started yelling out
because it was such an amazing sensation. I asked my friend if she could feel
the difference as well. She replied, 'yes-it now resembles muscle tissue instead
of bone.' I'll NEVER be without this oil!"
