ESSENTIAL OILS FOR KIDNEY SUPPORT WHILE ON DIALYSIS

A note from  Frances Fuller

Thank you for confirming that your friend is on dialysis 3 times a week.  Since he is on dialysis, it could be helpful to use essential oils that support the kidneys topically, rather than taken internally which would have to be processed by both the liver and the kidneys as both may be quite stressed.

Kidney failure often occurs after years of taking medications for high blood pressure, so oils that are supportive for circulatory challenges can also be helpful.

Perhaps you may choose to try the following:

• AROMA LIFE – apply 2 drops over heart and cup hands over nose, inhaling deeply several times.  This can be done 3-4 times daily.
• JUNIPER has been studied for its ability to support the kidneys.  When layered with LEMONGRASS, it has a synergistic effect that makes it far more powerful.  Apply 2 drops JUNIPER over each kidney; wait 2 minutes, and apply 2 drops LEMONGRASS over each kidney.  Wait 2 minutes, and use warm wet compress over area for 5-10 minutes.  This can be done 3-4 times each day.
• JUVAFLEX is especially helpful for supporting the liver.  Apply 2 drops over liver 3-4 times each day.
• GERANIUM supports hormonal balance and can be helpful in creating an attitude in which healing can take place.
• OCOTEA is a new oil from deep in the jungles of Ecuador and has show impressive results in balancing the pH of the body as well as overall digestion.  If your friend’s body was extremely acidic (as most of us are), it could have been the root cause of his kidney challenges because the blood becomes “sticky” and thick when we are acidic.  Then it takes more pressure to push the thicker blood through the tiny veins, and often people take medications to reduce the blood pressure, which in turn adversely affects the kidneys.  (It is all connected, isn’t it???)  Ocotea is highly effective dropping 2 drops under the tongue and allowing them to absorb into the tissues of the mouth.
• COPAIBA has the effect of magnifying the effects of the other essential oils.  This can be applied over the kidneys or over the liver or over the heart 3-4 times a day after the other oils are applied.  (Remember to wait 2 minutes between oils.)
