Boo-Boo Stick Chapter Two

Roller Stick (Boo-boo Stick)
Since I wrote the blog about the Boo-Boo Sticks I've been asked questions about what all I put in the sticks So I'll give you a few recipes that have work for me and my family. 

One little grand-baby had a fever in the wee morning hours and her mommy called my daughter to see what oils to use. She was told to use peppermint mixed with carrier oil and massage her feet. In a little bit the fever was gone and the baby was able to sleep through the night. She had an ear ache so my daughter put lavender, peppermint and lemon and coconut oil in a roll on and used it around her ears. For babies use 1 part essential oils to 4 parts carrier oil. Also Basil with the coconut oil is good for ear infections. Rub around the ear not in it. 

For myself I use Clove Bud, Cinnamon, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, peppermint, frankincense, orange and grapefruit. The Grapefruit is excellent for fighting staph. I use 1 part oils to the same amount of carrier oil. These blends are also wonderful in a diffuser. Or you can buy this as OnGuard. See below. 

I had a call about a granddaughter that had sciatic problems. I suggested the doTerra Deep Blue blend it is very soothing for sore muscles, joints and works to soothe and relax. And then for her to do her exercises.

Another daughter likes a peppermint blend for headaches and other hurts.

So there you have Boo-Boo Stick Chapter Two. There might be a chapter three in the near future.

Boo-Boo Sticks

Rosemary Bush


A few months ago I began a weird journey. What you ask? Well I was allergic to almost all medications. Nice right! So if I took high blood pressure medications my blood pressure became higher, etc.  Finally the specialist said "stop taking medications". So I did. I take a couple but have had to look for alternative methods for some problems. I already used a few things to help me be healthier but now I had to really search. As you know I have had  Breast Cancer and Thyroid Cancer and had the treatments that went with those; operations, chemo, radiation and iodine radiation. And those treatments have left me with a few problem too. But they saved my life so we know they were necessary and I am so thankful for the help from the medical community. 

Pain medications raise my blood pressure and gave me asthma. So what have I found to replace them? Essential oils. I have some recipes I use a lot. My favorites for pain are numerous but I like lavender, lemongrass, wintergreen, clove, peppermint  and more. I do use a very good pure and organic brand doTerra. It is self tested with every batch of oils made.  

I have always had asthma so I have found oils that help with that. I mix a few and put them in boo-boo sticks which are a roller bottle. I choose the oils that will help with asthma, bronchitis, flu/colds and my immune system. I rub them on the places that need help. I roll them in my hands, rub them together and inhale them for a while. I always put them on the bottom of my feet. Then I roll some on my thumb and stick it to the top of my mouth and let it absorb into my system that way. It works for me and stops my sneezing and coughing immediately. 

And the boo-boo stick is so fun and easy and came to us via my niece who lives in France now. What oils do I use for these problems? Clove, Cinnamon Bark, Rosemary, Grapefruit Seed, Lemon, Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Frankincense, etc. What is the etc.? Orange oil is awesome and if you put it in a diffuser it smells wonderful. I put the drops in a roller bottle add a carrier oil, coconut or  grape or almond oil and you have a boo-boo stick. Easy peasy. 

And can you imagine for little kids how fun to have their own Boo-Boo Stick with Lavendar and melaluca,  etc. to make their owies better. :)
