Guest guest Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 HI ALL I obtained this remedy from a chinese shop, which has in it MENTHOL, METHYL SALICYLATE, TURPENTINE OIL AND CAMPHOR. Originally I bought it for the pain of Polymyalgia, but the pain had got too much for this med. As a youngster my Mother used to rub our chests with camphorated oil which cleared ones lungs. This remedy can be used to do the same thing, and it will clear a blocked nose as well by gently sniffing it. To breath it in also clears the airways and makes you feel good. I am going to try and rub it into the neck to see if it aids ones thyroid, at the same time one is breathing it in keeping the lungs clear. I have also been using it on my feet as they were rather dry and have had athletes foot, and they are getting free of dryness now, but can also help with any pain. I am going to try sniffing it in while visiting the surgery to see if it will ward off any bugs, virus's. I would not use it near or get it in ones eyes though, but I am going to find out if it can be used to soften ear wax. Being also only a small bottle it is easy to take with you on hols or in hospital. Kathleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
