Essential Oil Treatments for Chilblains

These are itchy yet small swellings appearing on the skin as it reacts to low temperatures. They usually happen on the nose, ears, heels, fingers, toes among other body extremities. The uncomfortable condition doesn’t bring about permanent or severe damage and heals a couple weeks after leaving or avoiding exposure to cold temperatures.

Aromatherapy and essential oil treatments work effectively to stimulate the circulation while repairing the skin and reducing the cold as they increase temperature while lowering any swelling. These essential oils include: Black Pepper, Roman Chamomile, Lemon, Lime and Marjoram Sweet. Simply rub the oil on the areas affected.
