legs and I came up with my own blend for massaging onto the lymphatics
esp concentrating on the ones behind my knees, groin area, and
abdomen...fyi I also use it on the lymph nodes under my arms & near
breasts as well as the ones in my neck/shoulder area. I have also
found that if I massage this oil directly on the spot/spots that is
MOST swollen this helps as well. I will give you my recipe but let me
just say first that the oils I primarily use are Lavender,
Lemongrass,& roman Chamomile but I also use Lemon and Lime...I don't
have Cypress so I can't really comment on it but I can tell you that
these oils have helped me TREMENDOUSLY...I also do the diet "EAT RIGHT
FOR YOUR TYPE" (Blood type) and see a Naturopathic dr along with a
medical dr. But I can tell you that the natural dr, my diet and now
doTerra essential oils have all been the key in keeping most of the
extra fluid off me, now I suppose there may always be some but for the
most part I am able to control it now.
My blend is:
2T carrier oil (originally I used EVOO & it worked well for me)
10 drops Lemongrass
6 drops Lavender
5 drops Roman Chamomile
1 drop Cinnamon (b/c it increases the effectiveness of other oils)
Mix together in brown bottle and use as necessary...if I double this
recipe I generally get at least a month's worth of applications out of
it...
Also if/when the swelling is really bad I also apply Lime oil on the
swollen area and sometimes on my lymph nodes as well. I also put 10
drops of Lemon and 5 drops of Lime in my water EVERYDAY
religiously...and drink it throughout the day.
Let me know if you want it I also created my own recipe for a detox
bath using many of these same oils and that helps as
well...blessings!
