Next time you come in for a massage in an attempt to shake a cold, ask for the addition of Wild Orange to the therapist’s oil or lotion. The sweet and juicy essential oil has anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory and anti-septic properties, all of which pack a powerful punch against an array of illnesses. This particular oil also contains an anti-depressant effect which can bring on feelings of general well being, one wonderful addition to a massage treatment. Not only is Wild Orange helpful during bodywork, it can also be diffused around your home to keep a germ free environment during cold and flu season. The oil has been proven to kill pathogens in the air, cleaning the home of any offenders. Replace your current household cleaner with a spray bottle full of water and 20-30 drops of Wild Orange essential oil to ensure a safe and chemical free abode. When taken internally the oil is known to stimulate lymphatic flow and balance water retention as well as boost the immune system. When flying ask for a glass of seltzer and add 2 drops of Wild Orange to ensure a happy traveler upon arrival. More often than not your children will be excited to try a fruit dip or smoothie with the addition of Wild Orange due to its tart flavor. No more afternoon slumps, just tote your oil along to class or work and add a few drops to tea or juice…voila energy and clarity with a smile! As I have said before be sure of the source and purity when ingesting essential oils. doTERRA obtains their luscious oranges from the Dominican Republic where weather conditions allow for top quality fruit with a thick, oil filled rind. Please inquire about our large selection of essential oils whenever you stop in for a healthy treat and we will get you feeling and smelling revitalized!
