What can we do for injuries big or small? I have two little ones and a super active husband, so I have seen my fair share of injuries from little cuts to broken fingers. I’m not saying not to go to the doctor’s clinic to get it checked out if it’s serious, but I’m recommending what we can do ourselves to help reduce the bleeding, bruising, burn and pain. We can be responsible for our own health instead of giving our power away and expecting another person to take care of us. Please see my oil blend below:
This is my personal injury blend I use for my children. It is for a 10 ml glass roll-on bottle featured in my video. For adults, you can double the oils or use undiluted. This blend should be used periodically, on average every 2-3 hours or more often if the injury is serious. This blend should be used to disinfect the skin before putting band-aids on.
For serious bleeding, I would recommend pouring a few drops of Lavender oil straight on location. Then add pressure to slow the bleeding.
- Lavender oil is an oil of many many uses! To name a few, Lavender is very calming, great for the skin, soothes burns, reduces allergies, bleeding and inflammation.
- Tea Tree oil is the first aid for the skin! It is highly anti-microbial so it helps reduce the chances of infection and is naturally numbing.
- Helichrysum oil has very strong natural healing properties. It is such a powerful oil that can help with bleeding, pain, scarring, bruises, eczema and infections.
Helichrysum oil has helped my family in sooooooo many ways. My youngest daughter is new to walking and she falls over all the time! I don’t panic most of the time, but when she falls on her head really hard, it hurts me to see her in so much pain. Quickly applying Helichrysum oil on every 10 minutes after she got hurt, helped prevent it swelling and bruising. After an hour or so, you could hardly tell anything happened at all! My husband plays football and basketball and has been injured so many times I’ve lost count. He’s injured his toe with a massive bin, broken a finger and twisted his ankle. His finger had to be re-set by a doctor in the hospital and was very painful. Helichrysum oil and Ice Blue Blend was applied periodically until it healed. He twisted his ankle so bad once, he came home hobbling around on one foot and his injured foot was swollen black and blue. After applying oils, he was able to walk on it within two days and the bruising had faded. My Mum was moving a big cabinet one day and accidently dropped a corner on her foot. I know, what was she doing carrying that and why was she wearing thongs? My family makes kitchens and asians wear thongs! Anyway, her foot had such a deep cut in the middle of it and it started to swell and bleed. Of course I felt so queasy I just stood there while she rushed inside and threw some Helichrysum oil on it. I kid you not, within 10 minutes her foot was not bleeding, not red and not even swollen! The middle of her foot looked like it just had a cut on it. She put some more on every hour for the rest of the day and that was that. I could tell you so many stories about this oil! It’s just so precious to me!
Another product I use that is pre-made, is doTERRA’s Correct-X ointment. It’s a small tube that convenient to put in your bag or nappy bag. It’s a multi-purpose ointment that helps clean and soothe skin that’s under distress. It has a blend of Frankincense, Helichrysum, Tea Tree, Cedarwood and Lavender oil. It’s a perfect blend that’s great for the skin! It can also be applied before putting on a band-aid. I love love it!
