Aromatherapy Ear Rub

3 drops lavender
3 drops tea tree
6 drops Roman chamomile
1 ounce carrier oil

Rub around the ear and down the side of the neck. Apply one drop to a piece of cotton and place in the ear after application of the Herbal Ear Oil.  For children use half this dilution (6 drops total of essential oil in 1 ounce carrier).

Garlic is antibacterial, eases the pain and inflammation of a simple ear infection, and is the remedy of choice for the fungal infection called "swimmer's ear," a condition that typically creates lots of itching.
