Congestion & Coughing Chest Rub

When you feel congested or can’t seem to stop coughing, try this chest rub with essential oils. The warming, medicinal aromas of the oils in this rub will help act as a natural expectorant to loosen mucus and phlegm, while reducing inflammation and soothing away pain.

  • 1/4 cup Coconut Oil
  • 25-35 drops Flu Time

Instructions: Heat the coconut oil in a double boiler over low heat. Once melted, add the essential oil blend and stir to combine. Pour the mixture into a sealable container and allow to cool completely. Once cooled, rub liberally onto your chest, neck, or back to open up your airways and relax your diaphragm.

Faqs

Flu Time Essential Oil Blend FAQ

  • What are the best essential oils for colds and flu?

    Some of the best essential oils for flu and colds include Frankincense Serrata, Peppermint, Spearmint, Cinnamon Bark, Lime, Ginger Root, and Lavender. Each of these oils offer powerful anti-inflammatory benefits and contain natural plant compounds that may help boost your immune system. We’ve included these oils in Flu Time, which is one of the most powerful essential oil blends for cough, cold, flu, and other viral infections.

  • Is Frankincense good for flu?

    Frankincense is one of the best essential oils for flu. This essential oil has been used for generations in traditional medicine to treat illnesses like flu, colds, and more. In fact, scientific studies are beginning to validate its benefits! Using Frankincense essential oil helps reduce sinus congestion, eases coughing, and reduces inflammation associated with the flu virus.

  • Is Flu Time safe for kids?

    Some of the essential oils for flu used in this blend may be too strong for young children, so Flu Time is not recommended for kids younger than 10. For topical use on children, it’s also important to dilute this blend with extra carrier oils to reach a .5-1% dilution rate. (Learn more about kids and essential oils here.)

  • When is the best time to use essential oils for flu?

    Use essential oils for common cold, flu, or other illness whenever you start to feel under the weather or when you know you’ve been exposed to someone who is sick. When you use essential oils for flu early, you may be able to lessen the severity of your symptoms and shorten the duration of your illness. We also recommend using a blend like Flu Time for regular immune system maintenance during the colder months when contagious viruses are more likely to spread. It’s also a great choice to keep you healthy while traveling.
