Knowledge Is Power

Sharing What We've Learned

It's been well over a year since we discovered Skeeter Syndrome was the cause of J's mysterious symptoms.  It's been just about that long since we began using essential oils to manage his severe allergic reactions.  Between this blog, my Facebook page, and personal contacts I've had many opportunities to create awareness about Skeeter Syndrome and share the essential oils we use with other sufferers and their families.  The best part has been hearing back from these people... especially other moms... who are so happy and relieved to have found a safe and all-natural treatment option that actually works!  I've received e-mails and phone calls from people all over the country and different parts of the world.  For example, I've recently spoken with two ladies from Australia, one from the UK, and a gentleman from Israel... all searching for effective Skeeter Syndrome treatments for their suffering children.  It was exciting to hear a Mom from Texas share with me how she knew the oils were working when her 3 year-old daughter began asking for more oils... I knew EXACTLY how she felt since I too had the same experience with J.  I hope to get a Testimonial Section added to this blog very soon to share all these great stories!


I've also been enjoying this opportunity to dive deeper into the world of essential oils.  I've learned quite a bit and met some really great people along the way... including the incredibly nice people over at www.everythingessential.me (check out their newly added page on Skeeter Syndrome, under Health Concerns).  This is a great place to look up suggested essential oil protocols and user testimonials for just about any health concern you can imagine.  It's also a fantastic resource for learning more about individual oils, blends and the application of essential oils.

I'm also very excited to share a brand new site that was just published providing links to all kinds of medical studies, research and much of the science behind essential oils... it's some truly fascinating stuff!  Be sure to check out the great articles on Melaleuca (also known as Tea Tree Oil). www.aromaticscience.com

Last but not least... I invite you to check out my Facebook page... www.facebook.com/therapeuticgradeoils (you should be able to view the page even if you don't have an account).  This is where I share many of the additional ways my family is learning to use the essential oils.  I feel so blessed to have discovered these amazing essential oils and have truly enjoyed all the opportunities I've had to share them with those near and far.  Please feel free to contact me with questions any time... Take Care!
