salutations from newbie (w/muscular dystrophy)

[Guest guest]

hello to all!

 

my intro to aromatherapy was a gift set from b & n which came with a julia

lawless book and 5 eo's and a carrier oil. so far, i have only worked up the

nerve to give my mother a foot massage with lavender eo, and tonight i plan

to massage my hands with rosemary eo. i have muscular dystrophy, and my hands

are the strongest part of my body, so i abuse them, and they have started

complaining. i hope that the rosemary will help with the inflammation.

 

i also have poor circulation, so will be interested to see if the rosemary

will help with that too. i have been using massage to increase circulation to

some of my dystrophied muscles and to --hopefully-- build them up (they *are*

getting bigger and stronger!), but i haven't tried it with the eo's yet.

 

i am also interested in other methods of healing, eg ayurveda, which might

help my family members (including my BARF-fed dog) and myself.
