Re: [Everything doTERRA] Re: exercise induced asthma

Hello,

I am friends with Brooke and she is the one that introduced me to the oils via an asthma attack with my son. He has now been off o his 3 times a day meds for over a year. About 2 weeks into using the oils he told me that he would "Never use his medicine again." He has not been to the doctor or to the hospital for over that amount of time.

 

We have found that the oils that work best for him seem to change once in a while. Right now he uses Breathe, Eucalyptus, Lime on his feet (which we purchased a book on reflexology and are maticulous about how it goes on) on his chest and sometimes on his back. Melaleuca has worked ver well in the past. Most of the time my son will go to the oils and pick out the ones he wants to use. We have also found that when an attack comes on such as at the beginning of a rainstorm (one of his triggers, like tonight) we don't use the nebulizer we use the difusser. Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint are a morning and evening must.

 

Sometimes this makes for long nights or up many times in the night but just keep going. I feel better knowing that I am not putting steroids into him any longer. He even takes the breath to school with him and I found out that he shares it with his friends. One friend informed his mom that breathe is the only thing that works now.

 

Sorry for being so long but I would encourage to try different oils. Maybe even let the children look at the oils and choose the ones that they would like to use. Sometimes you will find it very interesting how you can feel what oil you need. Best of luck with this and let us know if you need more help.

My 9 year old son had this specific issue - which is one of the main reasons
I started using doTERRA.  Breathe would usually stop his exercise induced
asthma within a minute or two.  I would either place it on his chest - or in
his hands and have him cup his hands over his mouth and inhale deeply
through his mouth several times.  As time went on - I learned to be
'pro-active' in my prevention methods, and I have since added Lime to what I
do, because he LOVES that oil.  I have a bottle mixed together for him with
a spray cap that he takes to school (with some FCO in it) - and he knows now
to go apply some or inhale some BEFORE he goes out to play - or before P.E.
He has only had 1 or two times he has called me needing help this year at
school - and both times it was because he either forgot his oils at home -
or forgot to put something on before hand.  I was still able to get it under
control.
Now, everyone is different.  Also, the causes may be different.  How are
they using it - when are they using it, when and how do they apply it and
where all come into play.  Lime was an amazing addition for my son, but I
have a friend who has found that her son really responds well to Melaluca.
They could try straight eucalyptus, or Peppermint or Rosemary or even Lemon.
Also, are there allergies associated here as well?  There are two times a
year that my son also suffers from allergies.  That is when we ramp up and
add Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint to his feet every morning and night (he
can't swallow pills yet) - and it helps us to manage those.  At times we may
need to add something else, - but that is the BEST part about the oils -
there is more than ONE solution - and it just takes time, patience, and a
little experimentation sometimes to find the right one.
I feel their pain - because for years I would try to breathe for my son!  It
is scary and painful and hard to see them struggle so much.  Thank heavens
for the blessings of doTERRA's essential oils!  (sorry for the epistle :-D)
