The winds are changing and seasons are in transition, which is prime time for germs and colds to abound. It’s so important to support your immune system to avoid getting taken over. But, if you still manage to end up with the dreaded seasonal cold, there are ways to kick it fast and we’re here to tell you how.
At Eurospa Aromatics, we are dedicated to your health in the most natural ways possible. So please enjoy these natural and simple home remedies for faster healing!
Steam Inhalation
This is definitely the most popular method that relieves sinus inflammation, clears nasal congestion and soothes respiratory blockages as well. For doing this, you need to fill a small tub or a large bowl to about 3/4th of its capacity with hot water. Next, add some eucalyptus oil, either a few drops or a few sprays of Eucalyptus Shower Mist, to the water. Now, bow your head above the tub/pot of fragrant water and drape a towel over your head to create a smaller space for the steam to be trapped in near your face. Keep your mouth closed and breathe in deep so that the eucalyptus essence-laden steam reaches deep inside the nose and the upper respiratory tract. This method is very effective in providing relief from inflammation of the sinuses and blood vessels inside the nasal cavity, soothing nasal congestion and sinus headache.
Hot Lemon Tea
This one is simple. Warm a mug of hot water and add the juice of 1/2 a lemon to it. Add honey, stevia or agave to taste, to balance the bitter with some sweet. Stay away from sugar to sweeten, as this will feed any potential infection and you are trying to get rid of it! Lastly, add about 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper to the mix for a spicy kick. You can always add more if you like more spice, but add it little by little. It builds up fast! The cayenne increases blood flow, reduces pain and strengthens the immune system.
Licorice Root
Licorice tea has been a reliable source of relief for a long time. Don’t be confused, this dependable herb is far from the candy you may know it to be. An often underestimated herb, licorice is quite potent and has been used to treat ailments from tendonitis and ulcers to HIV and fungal infections. With that said, it’s not a surprise that this powerful herb can kill infection while offering quick (and delicious) sore throat relief! Go to any store that sells tea and you are sure to find it easily!
Essential Oils
Grab a bottle of peppermint or eucalyptus oil and simply inhale. You’ll be surprised at how fast your sinuses will clear! Additionally, both essential oils have anti-viral and anti-inflammatory properties, so inhaling their constituents will also help to heal you. But keep reading to find out even more ways to use the healing power of eucalyptus!
These short tips are sure to bring you a much more comfortable night and a faster road to recovery for your sore throat. Eurospa stands behind the quality of our products and we are happy to serve you in the same way we’ve served homes and spas all over for the last 30 years! Let us know today how we can make your life healthier and better!

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.

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’re used to getting sinus problems, then we have a solution for you.
Sinus problems hurt, happen inconveniently, and leave you feeling frustrated and desperate for anything that works.
A solution? Eucalyptus oil. In particular, using Eucalyptus in the home shower or in a steam room regularly will help not only the immediate symptoms but also the condition on a long-term basis.
Eucalyptus oil is a steam distilled from the Eucalyptus tree. The oil is taken from the tree’s leaves and extracted for medicinal, pharmaceutical, repellent, flavorings, fragrance, antiseptic, and other uses. Eucalyptus trees and bushes grow in South Africa, Portugal, Spain, Brazil, Australia, Chile, and Swaziland.
Eucalyptus is high in an oxide 1,8-cineol (or eucalyptol). Oxides are a compound that has oxygen (technical wording: “a binary compound of an element or a radical with oxygen”). Cineol is the most prevalent of the oxides, meaning Eucalyptus is great as an anesthetic (loss of sensation), antiseptic (reduce the possibility of infection), as well as a strong mucolytic (gets rid of mucus). It thins the mucus in the respiratory tract infections, making it a miracle worker for sinus problems.
Eucalyptus is analgesic, antibacterial, anticatarrhal, anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, insecticidal, and expectorant. This means that eucalyptus may help with acne, bronchitis, ear inflammation, flu, hay fever, high blood pressure, nasal problems such as sinus infections, coughs, congestion, vaginitis, as well as insect repellent.
The benefits are extensive, so making the decision to keep it in your home is an easy one. So stop feeling hopeless and know that you can feel better. See for yourself, with our Eucalyptus ShowerMist and other health improving products!
