Oregano essential oil has a hot and spicy scent with pungent herbal base notes. It is steam-distilled from the plants’ fresh leaves and twigs, making an extremely potent and clear yellow oil that may be used to support a healthy immune system. This oil is also excellent for promoting fresh air and clean surfaces: try diffusing a drop in your ultrasonic diffuser or add a few drops to cleaning solutions. Oregano commonly causes skin irritation when used in concentrations above 1%.

What is a Poultice? Try the DIY Herbal Remedy to Heal What Ails You
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A poultice is a combination of natural ingredients – such as herbs, salts, essential oils – wrapped in thin cloth and placed on the body as a remedy to pain, inflammation, sores, wounds or even cold symptoms. An onion poultice can help alleviate flu-like symptoms, including coughing and congestion. To make an onion poultice, the ingredients below are lightly sautéed, wrapped in a thin cloth and placed on the chest for 30 minutes. Breathe in the aromatics and let nature’s medicine absorb into the skin.
DIY Onion & Herb Poultice
- 1 tsp. coconut oil
- 2 Tbsp. turmeric (freshly grated or chopped)
- 2 Tbsp. lemongrass (chopped)
- 2 Tbsp. fresh ginger (grated or chopped)
- 2 garlic cloves (chopped)
- 1/2 cup small onion (sliced)
- 10 drops eucalyptus essential oil
- 2 drops oregano essential oil
- White cloth or muslin
Optional: yarn or thick thread
- In a pan on low heat, add coconut oil and lightly sauté ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, onion and garlic. Cover for a few seconds to let steam. (Note: Ingredients should be only slightly moist from coconut oil. Use a sparing amount of water to avoid burning.)
- Turn off heat and let ingredients cool in separate bowl.
- Add essential oils and stir to combine.
- Lay out cloth. Place a large spoonful of mixture in the center of your cloth.
- Gather outside pieces of cloth to contain herbal mixture inside cloth. If desired, tie the top with yard or thread to keep closed. (Note: You’ll want ingredients to stay in the cloth while in use.)
- Place poultice on affected area 20–30 minutes two or three times a day.
- Store in the fridge and reheat in a steamer or microwave. Can be used four or five times before discarding.
