My Colitis & Osteoarthritis Have Improved

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.

In March 2010 I was introduced to Young Living Essential Oils. We were talking at a luncheon and I asked a guest about her experiences with the oils. She began telling me about how her dad had diverticulitis and the doctor wanted to do surgery but he said no way.

He went home and began using the Young Living Essential Oils and within about 4 days he was better and has had no problems since. That was several years ago.

Well my ears perked up and wanted hear more. You see I was diagnosed in January 2006 with ulcerative colitis. That is a chronic disease of the colon which modern medicine says there are no solutions.

In April I attended a class and also received a Raindrop Massage! I was sold! I became a Young Living Essential Oils distributor that day.

My first order was NingXia Red juice - Yummy! After only 2 weeks my husband, the skeptic and other family members began to notice a change in me and how I was feeling. I had more strength, my demeanor was better, and my over all well being was more positive.

Next I ordered my diffuser. I was using it at my office during the day and bringing it home at night to diffuse the Thieves oil blend and Frankincense.

My husband loved the scent when he would come in from outside and decided we needed another one so HE could have one at home and I could keep the other one at my office.

I like to diffuse different combinations of oils: such as: Clove and the Thieves, Immupower, Raven and RC oil blends, or Thieves, Frankincense, Lavender, and the Purification oil blend as well as Lavender and the Peace & Calming and Citrus Fresh oil blends.

So I began ordering oils. I ordered: The Everyday Oils Collection, The 12 Oils of Ancient Scripture, the PanAway and Deep Relief oil blends, the Frankincense Resin Burner and the Thieves oil blend. I received free a Raindrop Technique and The Essential 7 oils Collection.

P.S. We now have a 3rd diffuser for the bedroom. My husband the skeptic is now a believer in the oils!

In June 2010 my Remicade I V Therapy treatment for my Ulcerative Colitis quit working. I have been on this treatment regimen every 8 weeks since April 2007. That is more than 3 years.

I had a treatment June 8th and the doctor said I really need to consider a Colectomy - that's the removal of the colon! He changed my meds and said we will see how you are in August your next treatment.

In August I was no better and the doctor repeated what he had told me in June - You really need to consider removing the colon. He said that is the only way. I told him not yet.

My colitis was no longer in remission. My symptoms worsened, I became incontinent and by August I had hit rock bottom - unable to function at work or at home. I couldn't get more than 10 feet from a bathroom for more than 10 minutes at a time. I was awakened during the night even to get up and go. Life was miserable.

My friend came down the next week to do another oils class and we discussed my colon health and she suggested I go through all my oils and look at the properties of each one and all that are anti inflammatory and start using them topically twice a day.

To my surprise I had 17 oils with anti-inflammatory properties. I alternate them am and pm, using 3 drops of 3 different oils at a time. For instance I use: Frankincense, Oregano and Basil or the Aroma-Siez oil blend, Basil and Myrrh, or Thieves, Wintergreen and Cistus or the DiGize oil blend, Immupower and Peppermint.

I am here to tell you I am getting my health back! It was recommended I eat at least a cup of raw vegetables and a couple of fresh fruits every day. I was given a recipe for a green smoothie which I make for my husband and I every morning. My colon is under control again and even my husband says he can tell a difference in his colon as well.

It was also recommended I begin using DiGize, Immupower, I C P, Sulfurzyme, AlkaLime, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree Oil), Life 5, Blue Agave, Inner Defense, and Live with Passion.

Within a matter of a few days of beginning to use these oils my life improved dramatically. I feel better than I have felt in 4 or more years. Everyone who knows me has commented on how I look and how much better I seem to feel. It's a miracle!

When I saw the doctor on Sept 30 for my colon treatment - neither he nor his nurse could believe how good I looked and how good I felt. I told him the Lord is helping me! I believe with in a year my colon will be healthy again and I can show modern medicine - God's Oils and God's power!

I was diagnosed in June 2009 with osteoarthritis of my left knee and my right hip. I had surgery to repair a torn cartilage and have continued to have pain in my knee and hip. After 3 months of therapy and no better I began seeing a Rheumatologist in November 2009.

He began removing fluid from the knee and hip as well as giving me steroid injections. I saw him again in March 2010 and I had more injections and more fluid drawn from both the knee and the hip.

With the Young Living Essential Oils I am able to control the inflammation, the fluid build and manage the pain.

I use the PanAway oil blend, Wintergreen and Cypress. 3 drops of each and apply to my left knee. What a difference it has made in my ability to walk, move around freely and all with out pain.

The last time I went to the Rheumatologist in June 2010, he did not have to drain my knee or hip and I did not get any injections. It's a miracle!

Thank you Beverly Batho, Debra Reybern, Gary Young and Young Living Essential Oils.
