Essential Oils are, well, essential!

IMG_2596Meet Dr. Melissa Dunlap. She is my chiropractor but she’s also so much more than that. Before I go there, let’s talk about a little bit of history. For those that have studied the Bible, you surely remember that the three wise men brought the Baby Jesus oils of Frankincense and Myrrh. At that time, those were considered by many to be more valuable than gold itself. Why? Because they were used to heal many things. Let me give you a real life example in today’s life that will clarify.  I was told by my aesthetician at UT Southwestern that I had a couple of precancerous spots on my face that my dermatologist needed to look at. Already being a cancer survivor, I take such input very seriously. The spots in question were on the bridge and the side of my nose. It took almost a month for me to get in to get these spots checked, so in the meantime, I put some essential oils known for helping with skin diseases on the bridge of my nose. The other one was close to my eye and not comfortable for oil. When I went for my appointment, the doctor could not find the spot on the bridge of my nose, only the one by my eye. Translation = essential oils helped with this skin issue for me. Now back to Dr. Dunlap. She is the one who introduced me to this whole new world I’ve been exploring. There are oils that can be used for almost anything. It’s very exciting to learn about and the best part is, there’s no bad side effects only good ones. Oils can be diffused, applied topically or even ingested. Its worth it to study to find what you can do to help with so many illnesses. I am constantly seeing benefits and now I help others as well. I encourage you to explore the world of essential oils so you can be blessed with the benefits they have to offer. You’ll be hearing more and more about this from me.
