Holistic Living with Essential Oils

Cat Scratches


As an ICU Veterinary Nurse, I have gotten scratched quite a bit.  I carry around a spray bottle of this magic.  It immediately soothes the sting and helps with the inflammation.  AND big plus here, when I have to handle the patient again, my hands smell like lavender and it is calming for the patient. 

​

Directions

 

Wash the scratch thoroughly and spritz.  Let the drop lets dry on your skin.  Shake the bottle before each use, to help disperse the oil.  The witch hazel gives the lavender oil something to hold onto, however it is optional.
