Essential Oils for Shingles



Prevention. Since the virus is in the body since childhood chickenpox and comes forth as shingles as the person is weakened it is important to strengthen the body.  Using the Life Long Vitality supplements along with cleansing and rebuilding with GX Assist and PB Assist will be crucial.  The Aroma Tough Technique is an excellent way to build foundation strength in the immune system and other parts of the body.  It should be used routinely to strengthen the body.
 
Healing during an attack.  Start an oils protocol as early as the symptoms are detected.  The earlier the better.  A common thread mentioned by those with success is a capsule taken internally 2 or 3 times daily with;
  • 3 drops Melaleuca
  • 3 drops Eucalyptus
  • 3 drops Lemon
  • 3 drops Oregano
Since each person is different also consider other combinations using Frankincense, On Guard, Wild Orange and/or Peppermint.  Many of these oils are in the GX Assist so some may find using the GX Assist regiment during the attack sufficient.
 
Pain during an attack.  Oils that have been mentioned for topical application to ease the pain are Marjoram (most often mentioned), Frankincense, Geranium, Lavender and Wintergreen.  Another successful protocol for pain and healing suggested is:
 
Spray topically directly to the affected area as often as necessary to address the pain;
  • 30 drops Melaleuca
  • 30 drops Eucalyptus
  • 30 Lavender
  • Add to 4 ounce spray bottle, fill with fractionated coconut oil, shake before spraying.
Two important suggestions.  One is to make application less painful use a spritz (spray bottle) to apply the oils.  Also, remember that often people who suffer from shingles, can have sensitive skin, so test the oils before using them and use a carrier when necessary.
