Therapeutic Essential Oil Usages Animals and Humans

How we started with oils...When Rudolph developed a fungus infection that was not responding well to antibiotics, we turned to essential oils. Quickly, we learned how valuable these oils were to healing, preventing illness and stress, and maintaining wellness for all our farm animals. Here are some of the ways that our animals benefit from essential oils on a monthly or as needed basis. I am willing to help you put a plan together for your animals.

June 2008 Inflamed Area on Back Leg Chicken with Mites	Reindeer - Joint Inflamation - Dasher had a large 'bubble' on the back leg (see photo). I applied (topically) a couple drops of Melrose for possible infection. Followed with a couple drops of Peppermint. Also gave her about 10cc of Ningxia Red in an oral syringe. On day 3, no visible change in the size of her bump. I used a insulin syringe to inject a couple drops of Frankincense. Continued each day with Ningxia Red for one week. Bump gradually reduced in size with no further need to apply oils. PEST CONTROL- we use a spray that I 'build' with 10-15 drops Purification, Lemongrass, Peppermint, Lavender (plus I rotate one of the following Idaho Tansy, Rosemary, Cedarwood) add 1 tablespoon V-6 carrier oil (or almond, olive), and 1/2 capful of Thieves Cleaner - fill bottle with 'good water' - we have well water. I spray at least twice a day. The reindeer don't always like it, so I get them as they pass. I don't have to worry about getting it in their eyes (or my eyes) - or in their mouths - every taste Off? Duke our dog gets the same spray. So do the cats. For extra protection, Duke and the cats get Lavender rubbed on maybe once a week for fleas. I rub a couple drops around the ears and neck area. Also we do the same with Purification for extra tick protection on their back and neck. I'd recommend doing this more often, if animal is exposed to tall grasses or wooded area. One of our chickens had mites. We soaked Marge in a tub with oil drops of Purification, Thieves, RC and ImmuPower. The mites and a couple flies floated out of Marge. I kept her submerged for about 40 minutes because we also had a detox mineral soap in the tub. This could be done with any animal. Reindeer Calves- We continue to give Ningxia Red for immune boosting, about one teapsoon. Rotate Thieves, DiGize and ImmuPower on the bottom on their hooves for general health.
May 2008 Bump on Head Between Antlers	Reindeer - Rudolph had a lumpy bump on the top of his head. I put Melrose and Purification on topically. The bump didn't grow, but it didn't open either. Next day, I injected Frankincense, still not knowing what the bump was. Within 24 hours, it swelled, opened and drained. I continued treating it with Melrose and Lavender. It healed within a couple days. Cupid has vaginal draining start two weeks after calving. We injected Melrose and Myrrh with a carrier oil. Dancer has vaginal bleeding after calving. We injected Cistus with a carrier oil.
April 2008 Essential Oils applied to pregnant cows	Reindeer - Ningxia Red and Gentle Baby Essential Oil on Pregnant Cows. We checked teats on pregnant cows - treated with Animals Scents Ointment if they are dry. Baby Reindeer - Ningxia Red for immune boosting. Rotate Thieves and DiGize on the bottom on their hooves for general health. Other oils may be used, Peppermint for fever, RC Blend for respiratory issues, Di-gize Blend for diarrhea Farm - Clean barn stall with Thieves Cleaner before calving
March 2008 Raindrop Therapy	Reindeer - Prancer is done with his treatments. His poop is just about normal. We will see how he does. His appetite is good and he continues to gain weight. His antlers are blossoming. He has more energy then before. He has gained about 40 lbs. Entire herd was given Raindrop Treatment with essential oils. Each reindeer got 2 oz of Ningxia Red orally. Pregnant cows were not given Basil or Aroma Siez. We applied Gentle Baby on their ears and one spray of Claraderm on their vaginal area. Chickens were all treated with RC, Thieves and DiGize.
February 2008 Parasite Treatment on Prancer, shown below.	Reindeer - Prancer is still our focus. He has more energy then before. He has gained about 40 lbs. We continue to treat with Parafree capsules, Ningxia Red, Surfurzyme and Frankincense essential oils. He also got another Raindrop treatment. Scours are almost gone. Entire herd was given Valor on their ears and one drop of Franincense on the top of the head. We gave RC Blend for lung support. We inject it rectally mixed with V6 carrier oil. Also for immune boost and infection prevention, orally gave Ningxia Red with couple drops of Thieves (infection) and DiGize (digestion).
January 2008 Parasite Treatment on Prancer Trailer Cleaning	Reindeer - Prancer has been our focus this month. For the past couple years he has scours off and on. It seems to be diet related. After many blood and fecal tests, the only issue was high protein levels in his blood. We have used many oils on him, some have given him temporary fix - DiGize and Parafree were the most effective. However, the scours always return periodically. I had an biofeedback (quantum SCIO) analysis performed on him. It confirmed parasites, as well as bacteria infection, and irritation of the digestive tract. We are now treating Prancer long term with Parafree capsules, Ningxia Red, DiGize, Thieves and Frankincense essential oils. He also was given Raindrop therapy and daily applications of Valor. He is gaining weight quickly with a renewed appetite. We will continue treatment for three 21 days periods, with 7 days off inbetween. He also has new energy, we are seeing him running and jumping, something he never did before. Thieves Cleaner was used on our reindeer trailers after completing our exhibit season.
December 2007 Rudolph is held securely in a squeeze shoot during essential oils treatments.	Reindeer - before we leave for events, we apply Surrender on their ears and let them smell it to relax. It's reapplied throughout the day as needed. For their monthly treatment, we applied Valor on their ears and one drop of Exodus II on the top of the head. We gave RC Blend for lung support. We inject it rectally mixed with V6 carrier oil. Also for immune boost and infection prevention, orally gave Ningxia Red with couple drops of Thieves (infection) and DiGize (digestion). Ear Cleaning was done with Purification on a cotton ball. Dasher had a leg injury. The wound was rinsed with Thieves Cleaner. We applied Melrose and Thieves topically. Also used Peppermint for inflammation. No sign of infection. Rudolph had some bleeding on his head just at the antler base. I applied Melrose for a couple days. No sign of infection. Chickens were all treated with RC, Thieves and DiGize. We discovered that two chickens had mites, so we treated those with Purification.
November 2007	Reindeer - before we leave for events, we apply Surrender on their ears and let them smell it to relax. It's reapplied throughout the day as needed. For their monthly treatment, we gave RC Blend for lung support. We inject it rectally mixed with V6 carrier oil. ImmuPower was applied topically. Also for immune boost and infection prevention, orally gave Ningxia Red with couple drops of Oregano and Thyme. We usually start with Surrender on their ears and also let them smell it. One drop of Frankincense on top of the head along with a drop of Valor on their spine. Chickens, ducks and geese - I continue to spray Thieves Cleaner (diluted in water) in the coop. I added Purification to the spray too. A couple of the chicken have raspy breathing, so we treated the entire coop with RC Blend under their wing, Ningxia Red orally, ImmuPower and Thieves drops on their feet. The ones we identified as sick were treated for a couple days. All recovered. I am also diffusing in the coop - I rotate between Peppermint, Thieves and Purification.
October 2007	Reindeer - for their monthly treatment, first gave a drop of Surrender on their ears and also let them smell it. Oral application of DiGize for digestive support with Ningxia Red for immune boosting. Applied Valor on top of spine. Then one drop of Frankincense on head for overall well being. ImmuPower applied with carrier oil on jugular vein. RC was given rectally for lung support. Dasher is given Ningxia Red daily - about 1-2 oz each morning. She seems to need a boost at times. She is a smaller reindeer and gains weight on her sides. After Ningxia Red her weight is redistributed and she is much perkier. She was injured this month - got punctured from Cupid's antler. We cleaned the 1/2" hole from the puncture with Thieves Cleaner spray. Also injected Melrose for fighting possible infection. Sprayed Lavaderm Cooling Mist for healing. Other oils used were Peppermint for inflammation, Frankincense for healing. Also rotated in Animal Scents ointment and emu oil. Dasher got a couple days of oils orally - thieves, oregano and thyme. I kept the wound open for a week so I could continue to flush. Oils were applied topically for about two weeks. The wound healed beautifully, no infection ever present. Chickens, ducks and geese still eating Wolfberries as snacks. We are spraying Thieves Cleaner (diluted in water) in the coop. Sadly a friend had a couple chickens die suddenly, she identified the issue as a parasite. After she did regularly spraying with Thieves Cleaner, her chickens are doing OK. No more losses. See the photo above - I gave our geese and ducks (separately) a mineral soak for wellness. We used RC, Immu Power, Purification and Lavender. They enjoy the soak and like to drink the water. The Purification keeps the bathroom smelling pleasant.
Sept 2007	Reindeer - Oral application of clove, oregano and thyme with Ningxia Red for immune boosting. First applied Valor topically. During two days of velvet shedding, I spray Lavaderm Cooling Mist on the antler and top of head. Used for calming and soothing effect, and healing if needed. Chickens, ducks and geese enjoy eating Wolfberries as snacks. Great for immune boosting with winter coming. They will drink Purification Essential Oil Blend in their water, so I put a drop in each of their water bowls and also their swimming pool. It also keeps algae away.
August 2007	Reindeer - ImmuPower applied topically for immune boosting. Also gave RC essential oil blend for respiratory support. Ningxia Red for immune boosting. New - Reindeer love peppermint water. I put one drop in a five gallon bucket, good for cooling internally and digestive support.
