Treat Boils with essential oils

Hot compresses with essential oils can be used to "draw out" a boil and speed healing.  The most suitable essential oils are Lavender and Tea tree because of their antiseptic qualities, though Chamomile is useful too.
Firstly wash the area around the boil several times a day with 1%-3% dilution of Lavender and Tea tree.

Boils often appear when a persons resistance has been lowered by illness or stree and other essential oils and treatments might be needed.

Other useful esssential oils are Lemon, Bergamot, Lime and Rosemary
