Discover Secrets of Aromatherapy Essential Oils and Aromatherapy Recipes for Good Health ANNOUNCING: "Natural Health Secrets Enjoy a more relaxed and stress-free life Aromatherapy for Babies My two-year old daughter Natalia is asthmatic like me. And I know for a fact that strong scents, molds and mildew, dust mites and household chemicals are among the many allergens that can trigger an attack. She seems to have inherited from me a sensitivity to dust allergens and strong perfumes and heavy scents, so I have always given a doubting frown when it comes to aromatherapy and my little girl. I have always thought Asthma and Aromatherapy are unlikely to blend together, thus, when her pediatrician suggested aromatherapy for babies as a supporting treatment and therapy for my own six month old asthmatic baby, I was shocked. My state of disbelief and curiosity got the best of me and I decided to look into and research further on aromatherapy for babies and its possible curative effects. What I have learned has improved my standpoint for this kind of alternative medicine. Aromatherapy is an age old practice that includes the usage of plant oils and essential oils to treat both physical and emotional ailments. Essential oils are often confused as perfume oils, as I have done so in the past. However, these oils are actually pure and natural essence of plants and are extracted from flowers, trees, barks and seeds thus containing no synthetic ingredients that may aggravate allergy and asthma attacks. Asthma is a chronic condition that affects the airways, congesting the path for easy breathing. A person who is considered asthmatic is sensitive to a variety of allergens and irritants that would cause the airways to constrict. It is characterized by chronic coughing at night and very early morning, wheezing and noisy breathing and difficulty in breathing or shortness of breath. With these in mind, I had to make sure that I heard my pediatrician correctly: And here are the reasons why the doctor is right:
Since my Natalia turned six months of age, I have religiously adhered to aromatherapy as a supporting treatment for her asthma. The nightly massages have proven to increase our bond as mother and daughter, promoted my daughter’s development of high emotional quotient, improved her immune system and most importantly, eased the asthma attacks and reduced its occurrence to nearly half. Aromatherapy for babies is highly recommended for those without sensitivity conditions, but has been found out to be beneficial to people like us asthmatics. As always, it is best to speak with a licensed aromatherapist and coordinate with your pulmonologist and pediatrician for proper administration and care.
