Decongestant Chest Rub

Here's the recipe for our Chest Rub:

1/4c olive oil
1/2c coconut oil
1/3c beeswax (I use pellets)
10 drops each: eucalyptus, peppermint and lavender essential oil

Melt the beeswax and coconut oil into the olive oil in a small pot on the stove top or in a double boiler.
Remove from heat and add the essential oils.
Pour into clean, glass containers or tins and let set.

To use: rub the salve between the hands to warm and soften, then rub onto the chest or soles of the feet. For foot application cover those feet with cotton socks after applying.

Remember that essential oils are potent and effective and should be treated with respect. Here are some tips for using them safely.
