Stories of individuals with high blood pressure and essential oils.
Ylang ylang
Thank you
ylang ylang!! I am 38.5 weeks pregnant, on bed rest
for extremely high blood pressure. I have been using our
ylang ylang for
3 days and my BP is back to normal!!
***
I have been using these two oils (frankincense and ylang ylang) for about 10 months now and I have been
so happy with the results... I have a history of high blood pressure in my
family. I find that if I don’t exercise regularly my blood pressure
starts to creep up to unhealthy levels. When I found about
essential oils I started to research all the healing properties they
have and how to apply them to my own needs. I figured it would be good
to use myself as my own case study to start. I have been able to keep
my BP levels in the healthy range for months; applying the oils and also
exercising more often.
Marjoram
I use marjoram for my high blood pressure. I put 2-5 drops in a capsule at night. Marjoram has a smooth muscle relaxing
effect so I believe that it helps me sleep as well. Once a day is all
that it has taken for me to go from systolic blood pressure 140's down to 112'ish.
Ylang ylang / marjoram with other essential oils
On Jan 23, 2013 my mom called and said that she is a believer. I had
sent home a roll on bottle with some oils that lowered blood pressure on
the 21st to see if we could lower her blood pressure. Her numbers had
gotten real high, the herbs she was taking weren’t working as strongly
as the
y had at the start. So I looked in my essential oils book and
found this recipe. I made it up and she put it on her left foot over the
heart reflex point, her left hand same spot, over the heart reflex
point and then on her heart. In 3 days she dropped to normal numbers
120/66.
This what she used:
- 10 drops Ylang Ylang;
- 5 drops Cypress;
- 5 drops Marjoram.
Fill the rest of the 10ml roll on bottle with the fractionated coconut
oil. Shake gently to blend them all together apply to your reflex points for the heart on the left foot and hand. Then put
over your heart.

My
dad's bp was 225/109 even on three bp meds. He was always in stroke
range. Then a cardiovascular guy told me to give him 2 drops each of
marjoram and
helichrysum. In
thirty minutes his bp was down to 135/74. That was in 2010. In three
months he was off his bp meds and to this day controls his bp with oils,
now using
lemongrass and
marjoram. He is 79.

Well actually I have a GREAT story…I began using the oils in July 2010…
lemon oil was
very high on my positive list and I have taken a minimum of 10 drops
per day since July 2010…at the time I was also on 320mg of Diovan
daily…then about 6 months later I thought maybe I could decrease the
amount and had an Rx for 160mg so I began that around Dec/Jan. In May of
this yr I was feeling horrible as if my bp was too low so my MD lowered
my meds again this time to the lowest dosage (60mg) and I kept a daily
journal of my bp for a month. I was still feeling bad and my bp was low
for me like REALLY low 96/58 so my MD told me I could come off my meds
completely and we’d see how I do:) I should also note that I began
taking basic vitality supplements in March along with my daily intake of Lemon.
I am very happy to report that my bp is normal/great!!!
Here’s my regimen:
Lemon (still 20+ drops/day in water or capsule but I muscle tested to see how many drops daily)
Basic vitality supplements
Nightly I apply the following by layering over my heart as well as pressure points on my left hand and left foot:
3-4 drops Marjoram
2 drops Ylang Ylang
3 drops Lavender
2-3 drops Serenity

My
husband is on his third week off all his blood pressure, cholesterol, restless leg
and allergy meds. He first lost over 20 pounds using Metabolic essential oil blend and has
been on the basic vitality supplements for 4 months. He is using 3 drops each lavender,
basil, marjoram when he has a spike. That seems to work great for him.
This is a very serious issue and if you are going off any blood pressure meds you
should own BP cuff and be taking a reading several times a day. He takes
it with him to work too and checks throughout the day. So far he has
only had to take that dose once a day and sometimes it's been two days
and his readings have not been crazy high. Averaging around 112 over 85
and lower.

I also have been off my blood pressure meds for quite some time now, using oils daily. I made my own rollerball, here is the ratio of what I used, 6
Eucalyptus, 10 Ylang Ylang, 6 Marjoram, 5 Cypress, 5 Lemongrass, 5
lavender, 4 Clove, 5 Geranuim, Lemon, 4 Wintergreen, 4 Vetiver then
equal amount of fractionated coconut oils, actually I probably used more than that. I roll on
left foot, left wrist, heart and carotid arteries, usually morning
after getting up and before going to bed. I elected to throw in
Lemongrass for cholesterol, lemon for detox and some of the others for
different stresses.
Frankincense essential oil
Frankincense for high blood pressure. My father in law is in the
hospital and I used it on him. It was down to normal in one minute. I
just watched the numbers drop, it was so crazy. He was up to 176 before I
used it... I put it on the bottom of his feet from his big toe to his
heel.
Lemon essential oil
Just 8 drops of lemon essential oil in water a day lowered my blood pressure!

I am off my blood pressure meds! Can you believe it? I feel like a
million bucks. I think my BP meds were really trashing my energy level.
That lemon oil stuff is amazing. I’m using it several times a day – just
like you said. But you weren’t kidding. Who knew putting a few drops of
fruit oil in my water bottle would matter so much.
Black pepper and lemongrass
I
use black pepper and lemongrass. I put 1 drop of each on the bottom of
my foot once in the morning and once at night. Also I take basic vitality supplements. My
doctor took me off my high blood pressure meds because I no longer need
them. My numbers were running 150/90 and now my numbers are 128/80.
Grounding essential oil blend
My husband is an RN at the county jail. A friend and coworker
who is 30 weeks pregnant began to be very dizzy and felt "weird." They
checked her blood pressure and heart rate and they were both dangerously
high, which was unusual because at the time, she hadn't really exerted
herself in anyway.
She began to cry and be very emotional because she'd had multiple miscarriages and she was understandably worried! My husband
had her lie down in on a dental chair, they all made her as comfortable
as possible, but her blood pressure was still 167/95 and she was
sobbing. My husbanded instructed her to apply some Grounding essential oil blend to her feet, then rub drops on her
palms and inhale. Within less than 5 minutes, she was calm and her
blood pressure was 122/65. ASTOUNDING!!!

I
went to my doctor today for my 4 month diabetes check and my blood
pressure was a lot lower than normal (which is weird since I came from
work). Anyway I've been on blood pressure meds for years but I've been
using oils since May and started with
Grounding blend in July.
Not
doing the standard protocol yet because I don't have all the oils. But I
have been using Grounding blend and lavender 2x a day. I also use Massage essential oil blend
which had the cypress in it. As of today I am officially off blood pressure meds!!!!
High quality supplements that contain essential oils
I have been on the basic vitality supplements for over 2 years and so many things have
changed for me and my health. My cholesterol is fine, blood pressure is
good and my energy level is high most of the time.
