In early spring, pollen development often marks the beginning of dreadful times for the allergy sufferer, which can last until the middle of the year. The thrusts of pollen from the various plants repeatedly cause new irritations for his tense immune system.

If the patient tries the following prescription in time with the first "tingling" in the nose, he can in many cases counter the feared exaggerated reactions with a small simple essential oil application:

On a spoon, mix a teaspoon of oil, e.g. almond or sesame oil, with 2 drops of essential cedar oil (Cedrus atlantica) and put this mixture into the mouth. Leave it there for about 10 minutes and then swallow it. This is done twice a day for a week. Not longer please, because essential oils have an undesirable systemic effect e.g. on the microbiome, if used for prolonged periods. If there is no oil at hand, for example because you are travelling, a small cup of coffee cream or even a piece of sugar can be used to dilute the essential oil accordingly for oral use. In any case, it is important that this mixture remains in the mouth for about 10 minutes. The so-called "oil chewing" should not be performed with it, instead the mixture is simply held in the mouth and moved a little before it is swallowed.

The above-mentioned mixture is available for further application. It can be rubbed into the skin - preferably the soles of the feet - up to twice a day.

With cajeput oil the cortisol-like effects of 1.8 cineol are utilized for the treatment. Rose geranium oil is sedative, antiviral and gives the mixture a pleasant scent. The essential lavender oil has a similarly calming and antibacterial effect. The mellow scent of tangerine oil calms and also accumulates other essential oils with its ingredients. The anti-allergic effect of the cedar rounds off the mixture.

The oil mixture can be easily massaged into the skin, the soles of the feet are particularly suitable for this.

Caution: Do not use on children (<8 y.) and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding! 

Essential oils should never be applied undiluted, always mix it with a carrier oil (carrier substance).
If possible, test the patient for tolerance by having him smell the oil!
