Peppermint Oil for Fever Reduction

We've been sick.  I mean really sick.




My 8 year old daughter had a fever for a couple of days.  My 5 year old did to as well as throwing up.  I have been sick for a week.  It sucks.
Now my oldest son is catching it.  Thankfully my youngest and my husband don't have it. YET.

So, I drew a complete blank when it came to fever treatment.  I was giving the kids Tylenol but it was doing nothing!  Then I remembered that I had read that peppermint oil on your spine could help bring down a fever.  So, I decided to try it.  I rubbed a couple of drops onto each girls spine and told them to go lay down.  Within the hour my oldest girls fever broke and my 5 year old's went down.

Once again my oils came to the rescue.  I love oils and peppermint smells sooooo good!!  Peppermint oil in a glass of water can also help to ease an upset stomach.  Just make sure that you use therapeutic grade essential oils from a brand you trust.  I absolutely love Edens Garden.  They are therapeutic grade and I have used them for years now.  They are also affordable!!  That is really important for me since I can't afford the multi level marketing brands.  These are quality oils that pretty much anyone can afford and they actually work!!
