Eucalyptus Blue

Eucalyptus Blue essential oil has a fresh, invigorating aroma that supports respiratory function when diffused and relieves sore muscles. The plants for this essential oil are grown and harvested in Ecuador and is also an ingredient in the "Breathe Again" Roll-On. *

Body Systems Affected: Respiratory System

Uses: This oil supports the respiratory function when diffused and is said to have an expansive effect that can be both calming and invigorating. Eucalyptus Blue feels cool to the skin and warm to the muscles. This versatile oil also helps to soothe away muscle tension when applied topically and relaxes the body after exercise.

Historical Uses: For centuries, the native people of Ecuador have used the disinfecting leaves to cover wounds and repel insects. While traveling the jungles of the country, Gary Young recognized the benefits of the Eucalyptus and began distilling the leaves at the Finca Botanica Aromatica distillery. The Eucalyptus Blue essential oil produced from these leaves has a fresh, balanced, invigorating aroma. This oil has the highest amount of alpha-pinene among any of the Eucalyptus essential oils, as well as high levels of the powerful constituent eucalyptol.

How to use: Diffuse - either inhale directly from the bottle or use in diffuser. For massage - dilute 1 part of Eucalyptus blue with 1 part of carrier oil. Eucalyptus Blue can also be used in a humidifier.

Dietary Supplement Uses: DO NOT USE EUCALYPTUS BLUE AS A DIETARY SUPPLEMENT. LARGE AMOUNTS OF EUCALYPTUS CAN BE TOXIC

Eucalyptus Testimonials

"Painfully congested sinuses weren't relieved by anything I tried. Even the Eucalyptus oil I applied to my sinus pressure points didn't help much. Then, I filled a large bowl with boiling water, added a few drops of Eucalyptus and Myrtle, put a towel over my head and inhaled the steam as deeply as possible. I spent 10+ minutes under the towel, just inhaling (and giving myself a facial at the same time)! I felt better almost immediately, as the head and oils penetrated. After the treatment, my sinuses did decongest. In just a day, I was back to normal. "

"My client was exposed to mold while inspecting a building. Due to asthma he was taken to emergency room several times for respiratory treatments. First he tried diffusing RC and Eucalyptus radiata next to his bed and placing a couple of drops into palms of his hands and sniffing frequently. This produced lots of mucus and immediately he felt able to breathe better. Then we added Thieves to the regimen. He used these for several weeks. The doctors continued using their treatments also. He was scheduled to have his lungs scraped due to mold but when he arrived for the final MRI to locate the spot his lungs were clear."

"Migraines are hereditary in my family and my daughter who is herself a parent has suffered with migraines since age 6. She gets the 'need to go into a total darkness and no sounds' place which is accompanied by sporadic vomiting. Even though I have suggested the oils to her in the past, she is always very reluctant to try anything 'new'. Much to my surprise, after she saw good oil results with her own son and nephew, she did try some oils.
We spoke one evening and she mentioned that she had a weird sort of headache starting and some nausea so she put a couple of drops of Eucalyptus Globulus, Peppermint and Lemon oil in her A/C filter. Within a few minutes she was completely relaxed and fell sound asleep. It had been years since she slept so soundly and it surprised her in the morning when she awoke with no headache and feeling refreshed.
Re-applying the oils every few days onto the filter has kept her sleeping well and neither she nor her son have allergy problems in the house anymore."

Did you know. . .

The air sucked in by the vacuum cleaner passes through the dust inside its belly, is filtered and comes out again. Sometimes that air has an unpleasant smell. To get rid of this smell, take a paper napkin and drip about 15 to 20 drops of essential oil onto it. Cut this paper into small pieces and suck them up with the vacuum cleaner.

Oils that are recommended: lavender, lemongrass, peppermint, Purification and Eucalyptus oil.
