Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


I was watching my grandsons all night. The youngest, who is 5, came into my room crying. I felt him, and he was burning up with fever. I didn't take his temperature, as I knew that he was feverish.

I put 1 drop of Peppermint essential oil on each of the bottoms of his feet every half hour for 1 1/2 hours. After the third application, he started to sweat. I felt him again. This time his fever was gone, and it NEVER returned!

That really sold me on therapeutic-grade essential oils. I told my daughter-in-law about it. She already uses essential oils but had never tried them for fever. She was so excited about it as well, and I always tell everyone about that experience. We love Peppermint essential oil and marvel at its many uses!

In vivo analysis and histological assay showed that the two essential oils displayed significant dose-dependent edema [swelling] inhibition effect over time. They displayed strong analgesic [pain-relieving] and antipyretic [fever-reducing] properties similar to that induced by 50 mg/kg of acetylsalicylate of lysine.... This work demonstrates the anti-inflammatory property of Cymbopogon citratus [Lemongrass] and Eucalyptus citriodora [Lemon Eucalyptus], suggesting their potential role as adjuvant therapeutic alternatives in dealing with inflammatory-related diseases."Link
