Dr. Jeanne Galloway, ND, Naturopathic Physician discusses how to reduce stress and anxiety with lavender oil
(Health-NewsWire.Net, February 08, 2015 ) Mississauga, ON -- Anxiety disorders costs Americans more than $42 billion a year through doctor visits, hospitalization, etc. with more than $22.84 billion of those costs associated with the repeated use of health services. Surprisingly, only one third of suffers actually receive treatment.
In Livestrong's video "How to Reduce Stress and Anxiety with Lavender Oil", Dr. Jeanne Galloway states that it's not just the uplifting and relaxing smell of lavender oil that causes a change in mood or anxiety levels; it's actually a physiological reaction that can make a difference in actual anxiety and stress levels.
When lavender molecules get into the nose and attach to the receptor sites inside the nasal passages, they actually start impacting neurons. These neurons are directly connected to the brain. The lavender molecules attach to these nasal cells and send a message to the brain to calm down the brain waves.
Galloway recommends applying a drop or two to the wrist and inhaling. This will not only reduce stress and anxiety levels but treat insomnia. It's not just a nice smell that makes you feel happy.
One customer recently wrote "I love lavender because it is one of my faves to use in the evening or when work gets out of hand. It allows me to easily control stress and restore some balance and happiness to my day naturally. Aromatic lavender is just an intoxicatingly divine oil from direct from my best friend Mother Nature herself. Lavender oil is the most versatile of all essential oils in my mind. Applejack Life is a premium quality essential oil that blends beautifully with other oils or into shea butter. It is lovely solo as well and wonderfully relaxing."
