Welcome to ABR International

Tackle the cold season with Essential Oils!

Image

The Fall and flu season are already upon us, and there is nothing worse for our beloved special needs children than trying to go through the day with a congested head!

ABR has very effective techniques to clear sinuses and reinforce respiration. 

However, if you haven’t yet learned our trans-fascial visco-elastic stimulation techniques  ​​​​​​​(which would put an end to these recurrent problems) you can fall back on essential oils to bring rapid relief to their discomfort.
Steam Inhalations

You may be using a Vicks Inhaler:
To the water, add:
1 drop of Eucalyptus Globulous essential oil
1 drop of Myrrh essential oil
1 drop of Peppermint essential oil
1 drop of Ravensara essential oil
Even if you are missing one of the ingredients (ravensara may be more difficult to find), just use the remaining ones. Steam for 15 minutes.
Lavender Oil Baths

If your child has a cold and feels miserable, a warm bath soaking in these relaxing, antibacterial essential oils will do him/her a world of good!!!

Ingredients

·         1 cup Epsom salt

·         1 cup quick oats

·         1/2 cup baking soda

·         5 drops Frankincense Essential Oil

·         10 drops Tea Tree Essential Oil

·         15 drops Lavender Essential Oil

Instructions

1.    Grind oats in a food processor, or coffee grinder, into a fine flour-like texture.

2.    Mix all ingredients in a bowl until oils are evenly distributed.

Tip: Create a pouch for your mixture using a sock or pantyhose to reduce floating oatmeal flakes in your bath.
