Guest guest Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 My FIL had shingles a few months ago. I looked and found that Basil, Lavender and Chamomile seemed to help. I made a few concoctions for him to try. My DH tossed into the bag my muscle cream that I made which had cassia, thyme, lavender and wintergreen and menthol crystals in it. He tried the sprays that I made using the eo's for shingles and it did not help at all. He tried my muscle cream, just because he saw that in the bag and he said that gave him instant releif!!

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 Hi Nikie, I'm really not very surprised that your muscle cream helped--my MIL has recurring shingles and for some messed-up reason she put my joint rub (peppermint, eucalyptus, lavender, wintergreen, camphor and others) on it and said it cleared up within a week and quit stinging and hurting almost right away! I thought she was out of her Barbara Bush-Lookalike mind for even trying it! But if it works, I guess it's her shingles and I know them buggers HURT! My wild-butt guess at why it works is that menthol is a mild topical anasthetic, lavender is said to be soothing on irritated skin, and the wintergreen contains compounds similar to aspirin (I'm not a chemist but I play one on TV), plus the carrier oils for emollience? I'd be interested in why this would seem to help shingles also. Have a good one, Serra Nikie Brown - After The Rayne wrote: > My FIL had shingles a few months ago.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 A friend's hubby came down with shingles last summer, and as she worried 'cause the pills the doc prescribed just gave him a bad headache and no help, I looked through my files to see what other herbalists recommended. At the time I was pretty busy and couldn't come up with much, but since folks said St. John's Wort oil helped, I grabbed some of that and brought it to him, explaining to dab it on topically. A couple days later, I also brought over cayenne ointment I'd made, but he refused it, saying the SJW oil worked fine. I thought he was kidding, but he added that it took about 20 minutes for it to work for him, and he could sure tell when it wore off; he didn't feel anything else was necessary for his shingles. Maybe SJW tincture, internally for nerves, should also be considered, as well as Lemon Balm (Melissa) both externally and internally for the anti-viral effects. Fortunately I haven't had shingles myself to need to test any of these. Kids can get chicken pox more than once, so it seems a person could also get shingles more than once. What a miserable ailment to deal with! I knew a 75 year old woman years back who got shingles (probably as the result of stress from her upcoming toe surgery -- by the time they realized her 'rash' wasn't a reaction to the pain meds, it was too late to medicate to fight off the shingles during those first hours). She would literally rip her clothes off to get down to bare skin so she could rub it and feel something other than the pain... Sure wish I knew then the different treatments I'd try today.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 I've heard the Ravensara works as well; I've only diffused it so far, along with Lemon Balm/Melissa, to prevent outbreaks, and it certainly hasn't made them worse... On the outbreaks themselves, I've used Lemon Balm and/or Licorice tincture diluted in Aloe Vera gel, with a drop or two of Melissa eo (depending on the size of the jar I'm using), and 3 drops of Black Pansy flower essence. This has actually helped me prevent outbreaks after prodome as well. (Prodome is the period of time when you feel the outbreak is coming, but you haven't blistered yet. There can be pain, itching, or greatly increased sensitivity to the area.) Just as with chicken pox, it's important to allow the affected area to dry out. Keeping it moist with lotions will alleviate the pain, but can prolong healing. You want it to get crusted as quickly as possible. I wonder about the woman whose 15 y/o has " shingles " . How long has this been going on? Are the outbreaks always in the same spot, or do they move and expand? Has the doctor actually taken a sample from one of the outbreaks to send out for testing, or did he just look at the infected area? Since it is a pediatrician rather than a GP, I would imagine this doctor has not seen very many cases of actual shingles. I am not a doctor, nor do I wish to be, but it sounds more likely that she has a herpes simplex outbreak on her body rather than actual shingles (Herpes/Varicella Zoster). Without having a sample tested, they look incredibly similar to each other and are easy to confuse. I have 4 " weird " , uncommon spots on my body that will break out from time to time; one on my forearm, one on my ankle, one on my outer thigh, and one on my face (yep, on my face. That one broke out just in time for the International Herbal Symposium this summer. I was so pleased... blech.) They look just like shingles, but they're not. It's herpes simplex. The doc said it probably got spread to those areas in the shower; for instance, I remember the one on my ankle showed up shortly after an outbreak, and I had shaved, nicking the skin and allowing the virus to enter there. Regardless of the strain of the virus, Dr. Christopher Scipio has done some fantastic work on the various viruses in the herpes family, and I strongly recommend his site: www.natropractica.com He's an herbalist and homeopathic doctor, and makes his own herbal products as well. His writings are heartfelt and hold truth for me at a soul level. Plus, he's more than happy to answer questions over email.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 A friend from another list uses Penny's Tooth and Gum tincture for cold sores, at first tingle. Says it nips it right in the bud. I am actually getting some so I'll have it handy next time I get a cold, in 2 years or so.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 I am a believer in L. Lysine. When I am under stress, I can count on cold sores .. . . MULTIPLE. The L. Lysine can shorten the life span of the sores and if taken regularly can really reduce how often I get them. So is it the alcohol in the perfume/aftershave do the trick? What are your thoughts? -Helen I breed cats, and give them L.Lysine to contain outbreaks of Herpes - apparently L.Lysine has the capacity to get inside the herpes virus spore, and inhibit it. You are right, there is no cure once you are initially infected, but you can control it. Mary Well, Naturally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Dear CHA, Thanks for the posts on the subject. I continued to go to work the past three days and the lesions spread to the upper buttocks (right at GB 30) and back sacral and lumbar areas. When the pain became too intense to sleep last night I practiced needling around the inguinal (most intense and original) lesions. By the end of the day today I fled work and received a nice treatment at a local (Natick, MA) clinic, where e-stim was applied to four needles surrounding a major lesion with good result. When I got home I practiced a kind of fighting fire with fire by stepping into the shower and turning the dial hotter and hotter. I remember doing this when I had poison oak as a kid. The heat of the water makes it feel as though you are scratching and even better than scratching, indeed it is almost ecstatic. The advantage over moxa for this purpose is that hot water gives no over-irritation to the skin. When I stepped out of the shower the heat concentrations of the lesions were nicely dissippated. Virtually unnoticeable. I'm taking LDXGT and feeling at the moment rather smug. At night, however, the shingles takes a darker turn, this time I'll be armed with the e-stim and mantra practice. Whatever doesn't kill you . . . Would the grains of high-grade moxa be used directly on the skin?

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Hi Carl, I can't say as I necessarily recommend this, but I got a case of shingles when I was in school, and my classmate did 7-star hammering and cupping on it (it was on my lower back/side). Needless to say it was exquisitely tender, but it dried it up practically overnight. Our dermatology teacher was mildly horrified (because of the contagion factor), but my classmate had had chicken pox (and wore gloves, etc). I also took LDXGT. Interestingly, it emerged in March in San Francisco, a week that was suddenly VERY hot every day (after the usual damp winter there), and I had been going to yoga class every day because it was spring break.

Does any one have any >suggestions for treating this condition. the most commonly recommended aromatherapy remedy for shingles is a strong dilution of EITHER Ravensara aromatica OR Ravintsara diluted in Calophyllum inophyllum (foraha or tamanu.) I've seen authorities recommend up to a 50/50 dilution. Around the eye I'd go a LOT lighter, and go with the ravintsara, since it is milder and less irritating. We've had years of really amazing feedback about the use of true ravensara...but in this case, if it were MY shingle... I'd go with RavINTsara.

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 My sister has a case affecting one of her eyes. She called and asked me if I knew of a natural treatment.....I'm soooooooo not going there. Not with her eyes. She does say its very painful and I dont know what to tell her. She can take lysine orally and will but there doesn't seem to be much they can do other than the herpes meds..... She says its because she didn't take care of her contacts and would let them sit out and use HER MOUTH to rehydrate them until she literally got someting on the lens that scraped her eye.....now its something that comes back..... You can get shingles anywhere and I have seen one case that left a lady who sold organic herbs and oils with a huge scab between her eyes and it was a full year before this looked healed and there is a very large indentation where that was. I know she was in the pharmacy every week....worse case I ever saw. evie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
