Personal Experience, Research, Possible Actions
Yarrow is a great oil to add to your blends for a cold or flu. It will reduce congestion and ease any aches or pains associated with the cold or flu.
Women appreciate it for menstrual cramps and to reduce pain. Try Yarrow for a headache, nerve pain like sciatica, hot flashes or to reduce a fever. Its skin healing properties are wonderful, try blending it with Helichrysum and Rock Rose.
