Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was a serious skeptic. I viewed essential oils as things that smelled nice, but nothing more. As a professor, I'm inclined to think if things were really medically effective, my doctor would be recommending it. But I'm also a chronic sinus infection sufferer. Usually they take 3-4 weeks to clear up even with antibiotics, and I spend a good two weeks feeling like the walking death. So when I felt the beginnings of a sinus infection the saturday before a big important work trip, I panicked. I finally folded and figured that even if essential oils were just mumbo jumbo, they probably couldnt hurt. I put this into my atomizer and just sat in front of it and breathed in deeply through the nose a couple of times throughout the day. By the end of the first day I was shocked that I was already starting to feel better, not worse. That first infection never got horrible and cleared within four days. But I believe in science, if even only the small N experiment I might be able to do on myself. So the next time I got the start of a sinus infection I started with the same full court press of pseudoephedrine, nasal spray, and atomized health shield. I started to get better. I removed the health shield, I started to get worse again. I added health shield back into the mix and immediately started to get better again. I thought maybe it was just the humid mist, so I removed health shield and just sat in front of the atomizer mist with no essential oil -- I got worse again. You get the picture. It probably wont be published in the New England Journal of medicine, but I am now a firm believer.
