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.


My daughter had constant trouble with her ears and getting infections in them. I had dealt with doctors and different antibiotics that were doing no good. She kept getting repeated infections and eventually ended up with a burst eardrum resulting in blood from her ears and terrible pain.

A friend of mine told me about essential oils and I decided to try them. I read in her essential oil reference book about ears and how careful you must be not to put the oils directly in the ear.

I tried a drop of Thyme oil on the outside opening of her ear, put a couple of drops on a cotton ball and also placed that on the outside opening. She slept for the first time with an ear infection all night.

The next day she told me that her ear did not hurt anymore. I did the same regimen for 2 more nights. I called the doctor and said that I wanted her ear checked. They told me it would take 2 weeks for the antibiotic to work.

I said I wanted her checked anyway. I took her in and they checked her ear. The doctor was amazed! She informed me that my daughters ear infection was gone!

The doctor also asked me what I did to make the infection go away. I explained that I used some "all natural" things and a lot of prayer.

She then told me to continue whatever I was doing because it was working! What a blessing.

Thank you to those who make these oils available!
