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 awakened in the middle of the night on a Thursday, with severe inner ear pain. I rubbed Helichrysum, the Melrose and PanAway oil blends on the inside of the ear, outside of the ear and around the back and down my neck. I laid back down and fell back to sleep after a while.

The next day I had to work and took the same 3 oils with me. After applying the oils I would then place a cotton ball in my ear canal opening that was saturated with one drop of oil. The pain came and went throughout Friday.

On Saturday I noticed I didn't have to apply the oils as frequently and by Sunday I was only applying Melrose as a precaution. I was very excited to use the oils and not have to go see a doctor on Monday.

I am an RN and working three 12 hour shifts with an earache can be hard.

I am very glad I had the oils for relieving the symptoms.
