Essential Oil Use for Children
Essential Oil Uses for Babies and Children When it comes to the health of their children, many parents are unsure as to what is safe to use and what is not. Although there are sources that say you can use any therapeutic grade essential oils on infants and children as long as they are diluted with a carrier oil, there are some oils that are hot enough that it is unwise to use them on a baby's sensitive skin. This article will address the oils that are generally considered safe to use on children and which oils to use for common conditions a parent may encounter with their child. Dilution Recommendations When using essential oils on babies and children, it is always best to dilute the pure essential oil with a carrier oil. For older children, dilute 1-2 drops of essential oil with 1/2-1 tsp. of carrier oil. For newborns and infants, dilute 1-2 drops in 2 Tbs. of carrier oil. If the oils are used in a bath, always use a bath gel base as a dispersing agent for the oils. Common carrier oils include fractionated coconut oil, olive oil, vegetable oil, or almond oil. Safety Precautions Keep the oils out of children's reach. If an oil is ever ingested, give the child an oil-soluble liquid such as milk, cream, or half & half. Then call your local poison control center or seek emergency medical attention. A few drops of pure essential oil shouldn't be life-threatening, but for your protection, it is best to take these precautions. Oils Regarded as Safe for Children Any of the oils discussed on this page are safe to use, especially if diluted. However, the following list contains oils that many people commonly agree are safe for infants. If you do not have experience with essential oils or are a cautious parent, choose the oils listed under each condition that are also found in this list to use. Several oils that are generally considered safe for children include the following: Cypress Frankincense Geranium Ginger Lavender Lemon* Marjoram Melaleuca Orange* Rosemary** Sandalwood Thyme Ylang ylang. *These oils are photosensative; always dilute. To prevent a rash or pigmentation of the skin, do not use citrus oils when exposed to direct sunlight. **These oils should never be used undiluted on babies and children. Essential Oil Uses for Babies and Children See the Common and Botanical Name Index for the botanical name of each oil listed below. Colic: Marjoram, bergamot, ylang ylang, ginger, Roman chamomile, rosemary, or melissa. Dilute 1-2 drops of oil in 2 Tbs. carrier oil and massage a small amount of this blend gently on stomach and back. Blend: Combine 2 Tbsp. Almond oil with 1 drop Roman chamomile, 1 drop lavender, and 1 drop geranium. Mix and apply to stomach and back. Note: Burping the baby, and keeping the abdomen warm with a warm (not hot) water bottle will often bring relief. Common Cold: Thyme, lemon, cedarwood, sandalwood, rosemary, rose. Dilute 1-2 drops of oil in 2 Tbs. carrier oil and massage a little on neck and chest. Diffuse into the air. Constipation: Rosemary, ginger, orange. Dilute 1-2 drops of the oil in 2 Tbs. carrier oil and massage on stomach and feet. Cradle Cap: Blend: Combine 2 Tbsp. almond oil with 1 drop lemon and 1 drop geranium. Mix and apply a small amount on head. Croup: Marjoram, thyme, or sandalwood. Dilute for massage or diffuse. Bundle baby or child up and take outside to breathe cold air.

Put a drop on a cotton ball and put on surface of the ear, rub behind the ear and on the ear reflex feet points. Fever: Lavender or peppermint. Dilute in carrier oil and massage baby or child (back of neck, feet, behind ear, etc.). Peppermint (diffuse only). Flu: Cypress or lemon. Dilute 1 drop of each in 1 Tbsp. bath gel base for a bath or diffuse. Jaundice: Geranium, lemon, or rosemary. Dilute and apply on the liver area and on the liver reflex feet points. Premature: Since premature babies have very thin and sensitive skin, it is best to avoid the use of essential oils. Rashes: Lavender, Roman chamomile, or sandalwood. Dilute and apply. Teeth Grinding: Lavender (rub on feet). Tonsillitis: Melaleuca (Tea Tree), lemon, Roman chamomile, lavender, or ginger. Dilute and apply to tonsils and lymph nodes.

10 Essential Oils To Help Create A Natural First Aid Kit
Benefits Of Essential Oils: 10 Natural Ways To Heal Yourself 1. Tea Tree: Distilled from the Australian plant Melaleuca alternifloria, tea tree is one of the oils that can be used topically -- good news, because it's great for treating skin problems like fungus and blemishes. You can dab it on acne blemishes with a cotton swab to help clear your skin, or apply it to skin fungal infections like athlete's foot. It's also found in many skin care products. 2. Lavender: "Lavender is one of the most versatile oils,” Scarpelli said. "It is more commonly known for its relaxing effects but works on bruises, cuts, and skin irritation too.” Dr. Oz says that the scent of lavender can reduce the levels of stress hormones in your blood. That’s a good reason to put a few drops in your bath in order to help you relax at night. Scarpelli recommends putting a couple of drops of the oil on your hands, rubbing them together and inhaling, then sprinkle a few more on your pillow before you hop in bed. 3. Calendula: Bright-orange calendula flowers are also known as marigold. Calendula can be used in a variety of forms, include as an essential oil. It's particularly good for sensitive skin and can be used to reduce the appearance of acne scars. You can also put a drop in your bath water to soothe psoriasis. 4. Chamomile: You're probably familiar with chamomile used as a tea, but the essential oil has similar properties. It's particularly well known for its relaxing effects, which is why the tea is popular to drink before bed. Add to the effect with a few drops of the oil on your pillowcase. 5. Peppermint: "Peppermint purifies and stimulates the mind. It also can increase mental alertness,” Scarpelli advised. "Dr. William N. Denver of the University of Cinncinati found that inhaling peppermint oil increased mental accuracy by 28 percent.” Peppermint oil is also one of just a handful of oils that can be taken internally, which is fortunate because it’s a great recipe to help indigestion — just mix a few drops in water and drink. 6. Frankincense: Nina Nelson of the blog Shalom Mama says that frankincense is a must-have essential oil in her home. She uses it both for relaxation, such as in baths, and to help minor cuts and bug bites heal more quickly. "Frankincense has been used for thousands of years,” Scarpelli said. "It can be used for depression, inflammation, immunity, and to increase spiritual awareness." 7. Oregano: You may have heard of oil of oregano as a flu fighter. This strong-tasting oil has naturally antibacterial qualities, which is why many think it can help to fight colds and other sicknesses. It is taken topically, often by putting a few drops on the tongue — the taste isn't pleasant but many people swear by it during flu season. 8. Lemon: "Lemon oil can be used not only to detox the body but it can also help with acne,” Scarpelli said. If you want a healthy boost in alertness, a bit of lemon oil mixed 50:50 with a carrier is a great way to give your head a lift. Because of its uplifiting properties, lemon essential oil is also good for increasing focus and concentration. As a bonus, it can help keep fleas away when used on your pets. 9. Grapefruit: Another citrus oil, grapefruit essential oil has properties similar to lemon oil. It's a great choice for people experiencing fatigue and it can help you deal with the effects of jet lag. It's also a natural antiseptic so you can add it to your homemade household cleansers to keep your home safe and clean. 10. Eucalyptus: This is a great oil to have on hand if you get frequent colds or suffer from allergies that affect your breathing and make you congested. "Eucalyptus can be used to relieve sore muscles and help clear sinuses,” Scarpelli said. "It also has many antibacterial properties and has been known to stimulate the immune system." Use it in a vaporizer to loosen up a congested chest or apply it diluted to the inside of your nose to relieve nasal congestion. But never ingest it or use it on your skin undiluted, as it can be irritating. Full article: http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2014/07/02/benefits-of-essential-oils_n_5536808.html
