A sore throat can be the main symptom of your cold or just one of many. No matter how it arrives, it’s uncomfortable and a stubborn nuisance. But there are natural ways to kick the beast fast, and we want to share them with you.
Of course, prevention is the biggest secret to long-term health, but there are many natural remedies to compliment your preventative lifestyle choices.
3 Top Natural Sore Throat Remedies For Rapid Relief
- Lemon tea: At the first sign of your sore throat, heat up some water to a comfortable heat. Add the juice of half a lemon and a pinch of cayenne pepper. To make it sweeter, add a natural option like stevia or raw honey. Drink 1 – 3 times per day or as needed!
- Apple Cider Vinegar: Similar to the above drink but a stronger flavor. Add 2 tbsp of the vinegar to about 8 oz of water. Sweeten as needed. It doesn’t taste as good, but it’s very efficient at killing bacteria and viruses while supporting your body’s fast healing.
- Eucalyptus and other menthol vapors: We all remember our parents rubbing vapor rub on our chests when we were struck with the cold, and we also remember how it relieved that burning feeling in our throat, nose, and lungs. Run a hot shower, and spritz our Eucalyptus ShowerMist into the steam for the best results.
Eucalyptus is refreshing, stimulating and a powerful, long-lasting oil with a very nostalgic aroma. It’s a must-have for every family medicine cabinet, due to it’s antibacterial and antiviral healing potency.
In addition to sore throat relief, other benefits of eucalyptus include:
- Respiratory aid with a strong influence on breathing and regenerating lung tissue/function.
- Stimulates oxygen uptake in our cell tissues and increases circulation. Increased oxygenation in the lungs promotes the cleansing and repair function of red blood cells.
- Eucalyptus eases inflammation of the nasal mucous membranes, as well as nasal congestion.
- Eucalyptus helps to relieve fevers. Useful in cool compresses; apply to the forehead, back of the neck, over the kidneys and pelvic region. Only a small amount is needed.
You can get relief naturally, today. There’s nothing to lose, except that sore throat.

It’s that time of the year when the winds start to shift and with that comes temperature changes, pollen, and germs all over. Half the time, you don’t know if you’re sick, or simply facing seasonal allergies, which leaves you unable to find the right remedy.
What you really need is a solution that quickly breaks up the congestion in your sinuses and lungs, as well as relieves the aches and pains that come with it. What you need is Eucalyptus oil.
Eucalyptus Oil for Respiratory Health
Eucalyptus oil is known for its expectorant, decongestant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiviral activity. A few studies have found that the Eucalyptol component in Eucalyptus oil may help break up and clear mucus from the lungs. Research has also found that using Eucalyptus oil for respiratory problems such as sinusitis, whooping cough, bronchitis, colds, and nasal congestion may help speed up the healing process.
A simple remedy for respiratory and sinus conditions is to inhale the powerful plant oils through heat and steam. Simply run a hot shower and add a few sprays of our Eucalyptus ShowerMist to the steam, for a symptom relieving, spa-style experience. You can also spray the mist around the house and inhale the Eucalyptus Oil vapors to help with congestion and to make breathing more comfortable.
If you have access to a steam room or sauna, even better. Just bring your little travel bottle with you and spray for luxury level of healing.
You don’t have to deal with annoying seasonal allergies that put a strain on your health any longer. Experience relief and get back to a healthier, more vibrant you.

Back pain is no joke. It can really limit what we’re free to experience in life and discourage our spirits. Medication has its place, but it doesn’t mean we need it for every tense muscle or pinched nerve. Menthol and eucalyptus products have lots of benefits to provide for back and muscle pain. So, we want to share with you some simple ways to experience relief naturally, without the pain pills.
3 Ways to Use Eucalyptus for Back Pain Relief
- Add 3-5 drops of straight eucalyptus oil directly onto sore muscles. Slowly massage into skin. It’s a strong oil though, and it may be best to dilute with coconut oil first until you know how your body responds.
- Add 15-50 drops of eucalyptus oil to a hot bath. Combined with the benefits of the oil, the heat of the water encourages muscles to relax and helps reduce next-day stiffness. For additional benefits, Epsom salts can be added to the water as well.
- The easiest option—and our favorite—is to get our top-grade Pure Eucalyptus Oil ShowerMist and simply spray it into the hot steam of your shower, or the warmth of any sauna/steam room. You’ll not only enjoy the relaxation in your muscles, but you’ll be breathing in the anti-inflammatory properties of the eucalyptus, reducing pain caused by inflamed muscles.
Other Tips
See a Chiropractor. Sometimes the solution is far more simple than we realize. Have a chiropractor check your alignment. If your spine is off balance even in one spot, it can pinch the nearby nerves, causing muscle tension and spasms.
Get Acupuncture. Doctors agree that acupuncture provides relief. Your body has a system of nerve nets and pathways all over your body. These pathways can become jammed and create pain. Acupuncture needles help to clear the congestion of the nerves so they can relax.
Drink Water. Hydrated muscles are happy muscles. Dehydration can cause the muscle fibers to become sticky and stiff. Drink more water and avoid food and drinks with caffeine, sugar, processed foods, excess salt, and alcohol.
Breathe Deeper. When we breathe deeply, we send more oxygen to the muscle tissues and calm the nerves. Don’t underestimate the power of 10 deep breaths when you’re in pain.
Remember, the body has an amazing ability to heal itself when supported well through proper lifestyle and health habits. Pain in the body is also a sign of something else going on, so in addition to getting relief naturally, be sure to investigate the cause with your doctor or natural medicine practitioner.
You don’t have to take pills for back pain anymore. Take advantage of true, natural healing today.
Which one of these options do you recommend? We’d love to hear from you. And share this article to help others live free of back pain!

Purchasing a product or service today couldn’t be more different than 50 years ago. Almost every shopping decision can include checking out reviews. And the potential review resources range from professional reviews from folks like consumer reports to experts, bloggers, and the mighty public. Personally, I rarely buy any new item or select any new restaurant without checking the reviews. I’ve even used reviews before going to doctors, dentists, and bike shops.
Any company selling a product today needs to be aware of reviews, as they can make or break the product. Moreover, paying attention to the reviews of the product and its competitors can help marketing departments make decisions about changes to the product, packaging, and event the instructions. Eurospa started shipping its first consumer product five years ago after selling eucalyptus oil commercially to hotels and spas all over the US for their steam rooms. The concept was to bring the health benefits and fragrances of the steam room into the home shower.
Reviews for EuroSpa Eucalyptus ShowerMist
The product,
EuroSpa Pure Eucalyptus Oil ShowerMist has been a huge hit in spa gift shops and on Amazon. And, of course, the reviews have poured in. Recently we were excited to get a review from a blogger,
UnboxingBeauty, who was actually reviewing a service provider where the ShowerMist was a bonus:
EuroSpa Pure Eucalyptus Oil ShowerMist This couldn’t have come at a better time! Since the weather has been getting cooler here, the heat at my home, work and in my car has been turned on (and everywhere else). With that, my sinuses start to get stuffy and especially when I wake up in the morning. This 100% eucalyptus oil mist really helps open up my sinuses and clears the airways. This is also great if you are sick and have a hard time breathing (just like Vicks!!) I used this product this morning in the shower and it was very invigorating and really did help open up my nasal passages. I think I will try spraying it around the bedroom before I go to sleep, to see if that also helps with my breathing.
This huge bottle has over 1,550 sprays so I am hoping this lasts me thru the winter ~ I read that the 2 oz version lasted someone . Euro Spa does not use solvents or isopropyl alcohol in their oils and Eucalyptus oil “has some rather powerful effects on airborne bacteria, microbes, fungi, and other undesirable guests you may end up with in the atmosphere of what should be a healing and therapeutic place.”
I love the scent of eucalyptus, so this is a really nice product for me. Give it a try ~ I bet you will enjoy the refreshing scent too and it really does wake you up ~ You just have to turn on your shower and then spray into your shower to get the full effect. If you want to really have a spa experience, first spray your palms and rub them together briskly. Then cup your hands together and breathe in deeply, but gently. Before stepping into you running shower, spray into the stream and you can also spray above the shower head too. Enjoy the spa experience! Full Size 8 oz Value $29.95.
Of course, Eucalyptus Oil ShowerMist has dozens of reviews on Amazon.com. When we first introduced the product, the spray unit was not holding up over time. We quickly changed the spray unit, and now virtually 100% of our reviews are 5-star. Here is one we particularly liked:

I was pleasantly surprised how well this worked in my home shower. After enjoying eucalyptus oil fragrance in the Ritz Carlton Kapalua steam room, I wanted to take some home with me and see how similar the experience was. A few spritzes into the steam at the beginning of the shower and several more during it made my shower a “spa experience!” I can highly recommend it!
But our best ever review came from a Mommy Blogger. We had paid 5 Minutes for Mom a small fee to do the review, but they were under no obligation to give the product a good review.
I am forty-one years old.
I shower every single morning.
That is a lot of showers. And I just realized recently that I have been doing it WRONG.
Okay, maybe not completely wrong. I start at the top and everything gets washed just fine.
But, two weeks ago, I sprayed EuroSpa Pure Eucalyptus Oil ShowerMist into the hot shower water before I stepped in, and my usual morning shower was totally transformed. It was like a shower conversion experience!
And now I am crazy obsessed with it.

We all know the drill so well. The alarm clock goes off, we roll over to turn it off and have no clue how we’re going to wake up without 3 cups of coffee. What you need at that point is an energy boost like no other. Not a pill, not a drink, but a natural solution that will wake you up fast.
Eucalyptus oil is the miracle we are talking about.
Most are familiar with the plant’s ability to ease respiratory symptoms, soothe and open the airways, but not many are familiar with its power to wake up the senses and heighten energy.
Use Eucalyptus as Your Daily Energy Boost
- It’s invigorating: The menthol properties of Eucalyptus leave a cooling sensation on the skin and in the lungs. Just a few deep breaths and every cell of the body is invigorated and woken up from the inside out.
- Stronger than a shot of caffeine: The menthol works as a vasoconstrictor, causing the cells to vibrate at a faster level, bringing more circulation and oxygen to the brain, inviting better concentration and more natural focus.
- It creates relaxation and a sense of contentment: This is one of my favorite points. As the oil’s potency is diffused throughout the body, each cell is not only invigorated, but the body relaxes as though it’s been to the spa. When you’re awakened and relaxed at the same time, your mind feels peace and contentment. Not bad, right?
How to use Eucalyptus oil
Our favorite way is to spray our Eucalyptus Oil ShowerMist into the steam of your shower. The steam further activates the oil and opens your pores, allowing your body to more efficiently absorb the oil.
Banish the morning mental fog from your daily routine for good and start experiencing life as it should be.
