Using Essential Oils - Improving Blood Circulation and Vein Tone
Recently I found out I have varicose veins wrapped around my stomach and uterus. They're partially caused by poor blood circulation, poor vein tone, gravity, and having babies. Anywhere from 3-40% of women have varicose veins on the uterus, but only a small percentage experience pain. I get to be one of those women.
So to improve my blood circulation and to help tone my veins again, I researched what essential oils are good for those things. Here is what I mixed together to apply to my abdomen:
For Blood Circulation:
Juniper
Peppermint
Also good are Coriander and Sandalwood, but I don't have those oils
Vein Toner:
Geranium
Frankincense
Cypress
Lemon
I put 6-8 drops of each of these in a 15ml roller-bottled, topped off with sweet almond oil.
I'll keep you all updated about whether there is a difference in pain or anything really. Thanks for looking! Stay tuned!
I hope this helps you, I bet it smells nice.
Thank you. It does smell wonderful. :)
It will be interesting to see what the result of the oils is.
It's going to be hard to track the progress as the veins are actually inside me, literally around the stomach and the uterus. I have an appointment in November to see about it so I will update when I know more.
I would guess that if you have less pain, that's an improvement.
