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 getting ready to take my dog out for a walk and had just clipped him into one of those retractable leashes (that is basically rope coiled inside of a handle contraption.) With one hand still on the rope as I clipped him in, he saw a rabbit in our backyard and took off. The rope slipped through may hand so quickly it literally felt like it was cooking my hand in those brief moments as I tried to hang on. It did not break the skin, but the pain was intense, as that of a burn from a fire. I immediately put several drops of Lavender on the area. Within minutes the pain was completely gone, and the blister that had come up instantly went away. In 24 hours my fingers felt as if nothing had happened, and no sign of a blister or any reddness.
