User Reviews for lavender

I have always thought essential oils were a "cult".. LOL. But I tried lavender oil for the past three nights and have slept amazingly well. I'll continue to use it. Just a few drops on my wrists is all I need.

I have a difficult time sleeping. I cannot let my mind rest I guess. I starting adding lavender to my nightly bath a little on my skin mixed with oils before bed. I found by adding that to other things like no caffeine and sugars it helps soothe and relax.

very good

Works great for relaxation and inducing sleepiness! I can't believe that WebMD would post that Lavender is unsafe for young boys, based on a recklessly reported "news" story that was totally de-bunked by Robert Tisserand, one of the worlds top experts on the scientific research of essential oils. WebMD is no longer a place I trust for reliable info about essential oils.

Works well as a component of depression treatment. Helps me relax and consentrate. Sure to have some effect on mild conditions though certainly shouldn't be regarded as a full value treatment.

I've been putting lavender on the bottom of my foot every night for years --- and I sleep like a baby, It's inexpensive, safe and it works! I use a carrier oil (massage oil) dilute it --- it still works and lasts longer. Just a thought!

I deal with chronic Lyme disease and I had a flare up of symptoms. Usually I take ibuprofen for my neck and shoulder pain but something compelled me to rub lavender oil on where I was having the most pain. I slept and woke up and felt almost normal! You have no idea how huge this was for me. The pain isn't totally gone but it has significantly decreased and without the use of medicine that can mess up my liver.

Used to help relieve stress and nervous tension

I have been using lavender oil for quite sometime for most things I would of reached for drugs. For migraines and headaches upturn the bottle on a finger, rub along the nape of the neck, upturn again place on forehead, upturn again place on one temple and upturn again place on other temple. Massage oil into temples. If no relief in 30 mins reapply again. I have also found wearing sunglasses whether you take panadol or lavender inside and out helps relieve the migraine considerably. I use to do a 12 hour shift with the onset of a migraine, sunglasses and panadol/lavender drastically eased the migraine, nausea and all other symptoms with migraines. I can't express how awesome lavender is for most ailments, my husband used it on an ant bite which relieved quickly. My Son, 22, has ADHD and doesn't cope with stress well until lavender oil. A young mother with three children under two uses lavender oil as per migraine tip. Washing your clothes in lavender water soluble oil. I could rave all day about how great lavender is for almost anythingRead More Read Less

For some reason, I experienced a lot of anxiety with this medication instead of the opposite!

Burn from hot pan on stove. Used immediately, then over the next 2 days. No scar no scab. More severe burns recommend vinegar.

Excellent on burns! I burnt my hand taking scones out of the oven. Put lavender essential oil right on the burn as soon as it happened and again 30 minutes later. The next day, it was just a small scab on my skin. No blister! Have used it many times since. It's great and safe for kids!
