I have had a lot of positive outcomes with all kinds of respiratory issues with people, horses, dogs and cats using the inhalation or Aromatherapy and Young Living Essential Oils.
Diffusing oils can be invaluable. Breathing in the oil molecules can make a big difference for many.
Aromatherapy and Essential Oils
Inhaling plant oils or essential oil aromatherapy, can be used for improved physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Essential oils are the pure essence of the plant—often referred to as nature’s living energy—and can provide both psychological and physical benefits when used correctly.
Two of my favorite Young Living oils that I have found especially helpful with respiratory issues with people, horses, dogs, cats and other animals; Peppermint and RC are at the top of my list.
Jean Valnet, MD, studied peppermint’s supportive effect on the liver and respiratory systems. Well noted for its soothing, cooling and anti-inflammatory properties, I have seen people and animals with extreme breathing difficulties begin to relax and be able to breath more easily again immediately upon inhalation of Young Living Peppermint.
- RC stands for Respiratory Congestion. I have found this blend to give relief from colds, congestion, coughs, respiratory
issues and sometimes relieve allergy symptoms. I have used RC with people, horses, dogs, and even cats. Consisting of 11 different single oils blended together, these oils are known for their qualities that assist the respiratory system all combined together. Included are four types of Eucalyptus- globulus, radiata, australiana and citriodora as well as Myrtle, Pine, Spruce, Marjoram, Lavender, Cypress and peppermint.
Aromatherapy for Improved Health and Wellness
Inhalation is one of many ways you can enjoy the therapeutic benefits of essential oils. When practicing aromatherapy, inhaling essential oils or using them topically, it’s vital that only pure, undiluted essential oils like Young Living Therapeutic Grade™ (YLTG) are used. Synthetic, perfume-grade products lack the necessary level of beneficial constituents and offer little or no positive effect.
The Science of Aromatherapy
When a YLTG essential oil is diffused, it’s inhaled and processed through the olfactory system, which then sends the therapeutic benefits of the aroma to the brain. Depending on the specific constituents in the oil, you may begin to feel the release of negative emotions, the soothing of undue muscle tension, or experience the cleansing effect of the oils as your body eliminates toxins.
There are two ways to use essential oils for aromatherapy: inhalation and topical application.
Inhalation
When inhaling oils for aromatherapy, here are some commonly used techniques:
Inhale essential oils directly—simply smell them straight from the bottle.
Diffuse essential oils using a device that disperses the oil into the air in a micro-fine vapor. Young Living offers a line of essential oil diffusers that effectively spreads the aromatic benefits of essential oils through the air without damaging their important constituents.
Some of the diffusers available;
Essential Oil Diffuser: Disperses essential oils without heating so they retain their therapeutic benefits.
Ultrasonic Diffuser: Atomizes cold water &essential oils, breaking up molecules into a microscopic mist.
Travel Fan Diffuser: Introduces convenience and portability to essential oil diffusing.
