Ear and Headaches, and Indigestion

Essential oils can help treat earaches and headaches as well as indigestion.


Earaches

Earaches are a common ailment, particularly with children. They often occur alongside coughs, colds, and chest infections. They can even be brought on by strong wind. To treat earaches, combine lavender with chamomile. Place a few drops of the mixture onto a warm compress and apply to the affected area.

Headache

Headaches are a common occurrence. This can be brought on by hunger, tension, eyestrain, stress, allergies, and exposure to irritants. Headaches can be subsided by combining lavender, chamomile, and peppermint with a carrier oil and massaging the area around the neck, shoulder, and temples. These oils can also be added to a handkerchief and inhaled, in a cold compress, or to a bath. A person suffering from migraine headaches, however, should not use a massage treatment.

Indigestion

Feelings of indigestion, also called dyspepsia, can include vomiting, gas, nausea, bloating, a burning sensation in the stomach and chest after meals, or abdominal pain. Peppermint combined with a carrier oil, then massaged on the stomach and the solar plexus area can help alleviate feelings of indigestion.
