--Pat thanks for sending this as my father-in-law has neuropathy and I would like to help him. He also has no feeling in his fingers. The post mentions diagrams, but they are not here. Could you post those also? Is this something he could do on his own? How many times a day is it done? Thanks, Sz
Sent from Sz's iPadI copy and pasted this for you,Essential oils may be used to help with uncomfortable symptoms as well as help strengthen the body's own systems to repair or correct damaged nerve tissue. For feet and leg problems Dr. David Hill in a lecture suggested the following as helps:
This process is basically creating "angiogenesis", which is the stimulation and creation of new vascular tissue. It will take several weeks, and maybe even months, depending on the length and depth of the starving tissues affected. You are basically 'creating' the need for blood flow to the area's affected. It is most effective on patients with diabetic neuropathy, but others can find relief from this process. He said three things are important in this process: Exercise (or stimulation for circulation), heat, and massage.
Using fractionated coconut oil to spread, apply a couple of drops of doTERRA Aroma Touch CPTG essential oil to calf area .Other oils that were recommended are: marjoram, cypress, peppermint, wintergreen, basil, grapefruit, lavender. Anything that has circulatory properties can be used. (Each patient may be different) The entire process should only take about 10 minutes each leg.
As you start, you may notice how 'hard' the calf muscle is. That is also a sign of neuropathy. Prop the leg up on the edge of your knee. Start at the top of calf, in the 'hollow' part of the leg (see diagram).
Massage in small circular motions down the calf towards the foot. Repeat several times on both sides of calf. (you may also use a small hand held massager) You may feel hard crystals, like bumps in area. Try to work those out. It may be painful for patient at first.
Now, flex the foot, and apply oils to bottom of foot. Then massage the areas of the foot show on the diagram below. Follow the arrows on the diagram. You may also feel crystals in these areas as well, massage them out. You will be massaging towards the toes. This routine creates the 'need' for blood to flow to these areas.
The top area is at the base of the toes (metatarsal arch). When you flex the foot, you will see a natural "T" in the area that is where the arrows are.
After massaging these areas (about 10 minutes) apply a warm compress to the area (such as a rice or cracked corn bag) and leave it on for about 10 minutes on each leg.
Do same application on opposite leg and foot area. The key to success in this application is CONSISTENCY!
He also recommended they take the Life Long Wellness supplements to stabilize the body, as well as placing basil on the bottom of the feet in the morning. Coriander could also be taken internally to help with blood sugar levels. Those who have severe blood sugar issues should monitor those levels. As with anything, a proper diet, and at least 20-30 minutes of exercise every day is necessary to help body to heal

She does not have nuropathy though.I found out that my sister has skin cancer and Venus Reflux with all these issues.Healthy leg veins contain valves that allow blood to move in one direction from the lower limb toward the heart. These valves open when blood is flowing toward the heart and close to prevent venous reflux or the backward flow of blood. When veins weaken and become enlarged, their valves cannot close properly, which leads to venous reflux and impaired drainage of venous blood from the legs. Sign and symptoms can be: leg pain and swelling, painful varicose veins, skin changes such as discoloration or inflammation, open skin ulcers.Would AT massage still work? Her skin looks really bad though. She is going to get another doctors opinion in Feb. Does anyone have any ideas?Thank you.On Saturday, January 17, 2015 10:37 AM, Heather from AK <doterraak@gmail.com> wrote:
We have seen GREAT success with the Nuropathy massage Dr Hill developed with the AT massage blend in leg circulation problems.
Frank is a great place to start to support the skin. I have heard wonderful stories and testimonies of using Immortale anti aging blend to assist the skin eliminate skin cancer where they used the oil over the area of concern.
I think the document Pat has on Nuropathy is very assistive.
