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.
The second my grandchildren complain about a pain it their ear(s) while they have a cold, I use the Young Living Grapefruit oil and the V-6 oil because it can have a burning sensation on their delicate skin.
I just put a drop on my finger and rub it behind the ear and down their neck the eustachian tube is. Then I apply in front of the ear but never inside the ear or canal. Immediately after that, I apply the V-6 oil to help prevent any burning sensation. If you don't have the V-6, use almond or olive oil.
I would say 8 out of 10 times this has worked wonders for them and has taken away the earache. But always seek medical attention if the pain persists. I have also done this for myself when I felt like I was getting an earache and the pain went away completely.
I have also used the Citrus Fresh oil blend when I was out of the Grapefruit oil.
