How To Kick That Seasonal Cold Fast and Naturally.

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, 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!

Don’t Be Pushed Around By Sinus Pressure! Get Fast Natural Relief NOW.

You're busy and don't have time to be shackled down by annoying sneezing, congestion and headaches.  You also care about your health and don’t want to be constantly popping anti-histamines all day. You need relief you can count on that supports your total body wellness.

We at EuroSpa, want you to know that you can find relief and it’s surprisingly simple!

For starters: Make sure that you’re drinking enough water. Dehydration causes the mucous in your body to become thicker, making it hard to drain. Also, you’ll want to avoid excess fruit as they are higher in natural pollen count. Lastly, make sure your home spaces are cleared of dust and dander as this will aggravate allergic responses.

Tip #1. Eucalyptus Oil.

Eucalyptus is the superhero of essential oils.  When inhaled, it's oil can open the respiratory system, reduce inflammation and allow for better breathing! It confidently storms through your bronchial passages to clear to the path for more air! Add to that, it's anti-microbial properties and you'll not only clear your airways, but clean house of all it's enemies!  I recommend using this Eucalyptus Oil Shower Mist in your morning/mid-day/evening shower routine, or in a sauna/steam room if you have access to one!

Tip #2. Lavender Oil

Lavender is a natural antihistamine, anti-inflammatory and very calming. It can help reduce irritation and relax your breathing.

Tip #3. Lemon

Lemon improves immunity, relieves respiratory issues, is antibacterial and relieves respiratory inflammation.

The truth is, all of the above oils would do well to be inhaled in the heat of a shower, sauna or steam room and will work miracles when rubbed on to the head, neck  and chest with a carrier oil.   They will all penetrate your skin and airways to both cleanse them of the pollen and to give you the sinus relief you so desperately need!

Tip #4. Peppermint Oil

This super strong plant oil will help to open those clogged nasal passages and can reduce headaches caused by sinus pressure as well! Special bonus tip?  Mix with a little coconut oils and rub on the top of your forehead, at your temples and behind your ears. You'll be surprised at how this gives you relief.

But make it easy on yourself and get the eucalyptus shower spray that everyone is raving about!

It’s time to take your power back and get relief fast. Now that you can finally get it naturally, you can rest and sit in peace knowing you’re going to feel better without the side effects!

The Good News and Bad News About Your Seasonal Allergies.

It’s too familiar. It feels like the coming on of the flu. Slight headache. Sinus pressure. Tiredness. And then… sneezing. There’s a good chance you’re not sick. (Good news!) It’s likely you’ve got seasonal allergies. (Bad News.)

Why is this bad news? Well, a cold will go away. Allergies like to hang on to you like a dear friend, for months on end. You can’t work or function like that - much less enjoy the beauty of the season.

So rather than buy out the local drug store’s stock of anti-histamines, we’d like to suggest you take a more natural, just as effective and much safer for the body route.

Here's what you want to do:

Eat the right foods.

Choose to eat a clean and balanced diet, full of high quality protein, fruits and vegetables. This helps to reduce may reduce hay fever symptoms and also strengthens the immune system. Drink a lot of water only, and do your best to avoid grains, dairy, excess salt, sugar, alcohol and anything other highly processed foods. Bonus helpful foods to help get rid of hay fever are garlic, ginger, onions and honey. Steep them in a tea for best results. Once it has steeped for at least 10 minutes, feel free to add ice if that would be more weather appropriate.

Herbs with superpowers.

There are several herbs that may be used to calm the sneezing, coughing, itching and congestion symptoms associated with hay fever. They work mainly by strengthening and supporting the allergen-fighting immune system. Some of these herbs are stinging nettle, gingko and quercetin.

Drink a lot of water.

Drinking adequate water will dilute your system as well as keep the mucous flowing so it doesn’t stagnate in your sinus cavities. The more dehydrated you are, the more pressure and burning you’re likely to feel.

Acupuncture helps.

Acupuncture has been shown repeatedly to effectively relieve symptoms of hay fever. Acupuncture corrects and balances the energy flow of your body (your body's electrical system) through the use of needles on the skin, specifically on facial points. This stimulates the immune system, clear congestion, any associated pain and reduce inflammation.

Steam with eucalyptus

This is an easy and relaxing option for relieving hay fever symptoms. Start a hot shower or bath and breathe in the steam.  The steam will break up the mucous and relax the uptight muscles involved.  You can enhance this option by using the acupressure mentioned while in the heat.  Also, adding essential oils like our Eucalyptus Oil Shower Spray to the steam WITH the acupressure IN the steam, will give you peak relief.

Other useful tips:

There will be days where the pollen count is simply high and your safest choice will be to stay indoors. (Enter your zip code here and find out your local pollen count!)  It’s also smart to avoid going outside during more windy days or after thunderstorms. Instead of a lawn, have bricks, rocks and stone for a landscape. And as needed throughout the day, rinse your face and blow your nose to keep yourself clear from any pollen collecting there.

Be Sinus Pressure Free for Thanksgiving with This Powerful Natural Remedy!

It never fails. A fun and festive holiday is approaching and you are blessed with the gift of a sinus cold. Who wants to be in the family photo with a red nose and watery eyes? Nobody does and that’s why we at Eurospa want to share the powerful natural ways you can be sinus pressure free for this year’s Thanksgiving feast!

The first step is always preventative.

If you know you are prone to winter colds, make sure your immune system is strong enough to ward them off. Some simple ways to do this are to dress warm; keep your neck, back and feet well covered. Get enough sleep. Drink hot herbal teas and warm lemon juice with honey. Eat garlic and limit the sugar and white pastas and breads you consume. This will get you on a good path.

Steam with Eucalyptus

This is an easy and relaxing option for relieving sinus pressure and sinus colds and there are two ways to do it.

First, start a hot shower or bath and breathe in the steam.  The steam will break up the mucous and relax the uptight muscles involved. Once you’re in the shower, add 2 or 3 sprays of Eucalyptus Oil Shower Spray to the steam.

Your second option is over a bowl of hot water. You simply pour boiling water into a bowl. Grab a towel, your bowl, Eucalyptus Oil Shower Spray and sit comfortably at the table. Place the bowl in front of you. Add 1 or 2 sprays of the Eucalyptus spray to the bowl. The water should still be steaming. Then place the towel over your head and let it cover the bowl as well. You should be in a steam cave now. Gently inhale the eucalyptus steam into your lungs through your nose and feel the congestion break.

Eucalyptus not only breaks up the congestion, but it’s also and anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-viral. This means it’s going to calm down your inflamed sinuses while killing the bacteria and viruses that started the whole mess!

You don't have to be miserable any more.
