Olbas Oil Aromatherapy Inhalant and Aromatic Massage Oil, 1.65 Fl Oz

I’ve been using this whenever I get sick for the last 50 years.

In our home we reach for Oblas oil without a second thought. It actually stays right on our kitchen counter. Stuffy nose - Olba oil, Sore muscles -Olbas oil, headache - Olbas Oil, I even use it if I am feeling stressed...

It’s good

Best thing

This is a much purchase product.I have migraines and Olbas oil on my head with medicine does the trick. I haven't had nausea in a while because if you use this early enough, your headache will go away. Put it on and take a nap and you'll recover from a normal headache without medicine many times.When our kids are sick, we put some on a napkin and put it in their room. It opens up their nasal passages and they sleep very well. It's a normal part of our routine when they are sick and they ask for it now. It works so well that you don't need a nasal decongestant, which is great if you don't want to give your kids extra medicine.This works amazingly well for muscle pain. It's like Icy Hot but much better and natural. My wife would use it after pregnancy when she would have back or leg pain. I use it whenever I have any type of leg pain, specifically when my sciatic nerve (sciatica) is acting up. Works great for foot pain too.It smells really good too and overall has so many usages. We always have a bottle available!Please keep it out of your eyes or sensitive areas. Once it's on, you can't get it off until it stops working. So be careful with your kids and make sure if you put it on a napkin or vaporizer that there isn't a chance of them touching it. We taught our kids why they can't touch it and I put some on them in a spot that wasn't sensitive so they understood the feeling.Just buy it and you'll keep buying it.

I was originally recommended this when I visited Whole Foods as I was having panic attacks and felt like I couldn't breathe. The person helping me said that this would help relax me and encourage deep breathing. I was desperate and I was willing to try anything, and I am so glad I did. I showed my mom the bottle and she loved how good it smelled. It turned me to a safe place. Before presentations, I would get really nervous so I would put some of this on a tissue, and bring it up with me. I would smell it when I would feel anxiety coming on. It definitely was quite helpful.This is so much better than the medicated green oil that my family used to use. We have refrained from using it for years because of the awful lingering smell. When I showed my mom this, she LOVED the smell and was willing to use it and didn't mind that it stayed with her. So now both me and my mom are obsessed with this smell. I ended up giving my mom the first bottle, and she takes deep breaths of it every day. Tip: there was an article that stated that using essential oils helps decrease your risk of airborne illness, so take inhalations of this each day before going out. This is what my mom does and she rarely ever gets sick, which is a plus because she is terrified of medication.I also use this for when my post nasal drip acts up. I rub some on my chest and prop my pillow up, and it definitely helps with the coughing.

I like it, but it does burn a little when I use it in my nose. It is not as bad as another inhaler mixture I bought, but I think that it isn't completely essential oil. I get that burn in my nose only if I inhale something with alcohol in it. Before I bought this or the other inhaler, I bought some cheap peppermint oil from the pharmacy, not realizing that it was a "flavoring agent' since those words were covered by the price sticker. I found out after using it in an inhaler, that there was alcohol in it and never used it again. The burning was so bad that my eyes teared up and my sinuses swelled shut.As for this stuff, it works okay, but whatever alcohol may be in it must be removed. It is better to use 100% PURE essential oil for aromatherapy than any alcohol-based liquid. These oils are being inhaled through a very delicate area.

I am terribly prone to sinus infections. From November through April, I might get 1/month, some of which hit me like flu and put me out of commission (and out of work!) for 1-2 weeks at a time. What's worse: they lower my immune system, allowing a dormant Epstein-Barr virus to trigger. EBV falls into the family of chronic fatigue/mono ailments and is devastating. Last year I was out of work for nearly 6 months because of an EBV attack. Last Fall, we finally figured out that avoiding sinus infections might give me a chance to avoid EBV. I travel a lot and have typically come home from every trip with the start of a sinus infection. Several years ago, a naturopath gave me Olbas oil. I pulled it out this past Fall and started using it whenever I got stuffy. At night, especially, I rub it liberally on my chest and back, my throat (my sinus infections always give me swollen glands), and a "swipe" under each eye (CAUTION! KEEP AWAY FROM YOUR EYES!), my nose and each temple. It does not do a lot to promote romantic evenings, but it really keeps the sinus infections at bay. Since last Fall I've had only a very tiny sinus infection and a short bout of bronchitis. Much to my surprise, I got over the bronchitis "all by myself", without any antiobiotics... just using Olbas oil. It's pricey but a little goes a long way.
