Varicose Veins

[Guest guest]

A friend of mine had the largest varicose veins I have ever seen and bad leg

pain. She started taking grapeseed oil (virgin-organic) a tablespoon full a

day, and it was amazing how it worked on her. The first thing that she

noticed was the pain went and then the veins began getting smaller.

Put some nice non-toxic lotion in your hand

and add 2-3 drops grapefruit EO and/or lemon EO

and rub on the varicose vein...! Itworks amazingly well

and FAST.

I had a ruptured vein below my knee several years ago and

taped 1/4 grapefruit skin (white side against the skin) on for about 4

hours.

When I took off the grapefruit skin you couldn't even tell where the

massively

swelled up vein was...!

Varicose Veins

 

I usually lurk in the background reading and learning from all the posts on

this list. Love it all!! Now I'm looking for some help.

My friends mom has painful varicose veins. I would like to make something

to help reduce her inflamation and pain. I'm just throwing this out there

to see if anyone has had any success and what essential oils you have tried.

I was thinking of an MSM cream and perhaps Heli.... with it. Any other

ideas would be appreciated.

Don't forget the humble art of Reflexology!

I met a man whose wife had serious varicose

veins while seh was pregnant with twins.

He did her feet daily and they went away

even before the delivery.

Yehuda

I hope you bled only the small dark veins, if you bleed any of the larger ones

you make it worse

Hi Yehuda,

 

I would recommend a tincture of Horse Chestnut, Red Root, Huai nui xi, dan shen,

and Arnica, at a 2:3:2:3:1 ratio (in the order given above) 30-60 drops tid. If

this bothers her stomach, which is possible, reduce the does or add some gancao

0.5-1 part.

 

Although horse chestnut is not in my book, the other two western herbs are,

horse chestnut is used in Chinese medicine (æ¶ÂÞ×Ó suo luo zi) Aesculus

chinensis and A. wilsonii) to " loosen the center, " " rectify qi, " " kill worms, "

for stomach pain due to cold, distention in the stomach duct and abdomen that

likes pressure, childhood disease caused by worms with pain, malaria, and

dysentery, among other things. (From ÖÐÒ½´ó´Çµä zhong yi da ci dian page 1961)

 

Good luck,

Thomas

Hi Yehuda,

 

Sorry for the delay....I have been in the Sierra enjoying the

botanical wonders that never cease to amaze me...more Aconite than I

have ever seen in one place...glorious...

 

That preparation in for internal use...however...it could be prepared

as a cream and used externally as well....I don't generally use

tinctures straight externally except in " knocks and falls " aka blunt

force trauma.

I just learned this recipe from a very

reliable source. I am going to try it. I’ve been taking Dios

Vein which I buy from www.Swansonvitamins.com

and it certainly helped, but it didn’t clear them up completely.

This seems easy enough to do and if you like lemon flavored drinks it will be

tasty too.

For

Varicose Veins:

Purchase lemons

and strawberries. SCRUB lemons in vinegar water with vegetable brush

or toothbrush to be sure to remove ALL pesticides and foreign matter.

Once they are clean, you can freeze them or use them immediately. If

frozen, you won’t

have to add ice to the drink below.

Make a Lemon smoothie:

Blend at HIGH speed to liquefy rind and seeds:

1 lemon, including rind and seeds as these contain the active chemical

ingredients

Several strawberries

Juice from any fruit or vegetable to make it sweeter. Make sure the juice does

not contain high frutose or corn syrup.

Or use some sugar or honey to taste.

Add ice to blender,

after it is all thoroughly liquefied. Blend to make a smoothie.

 

Drink all of it

once a day for two weeks. Then occasionally, every few days

until satisfied with results.

 

This

also works for gall bladder attacks.
