Best Herbal Steams for Cold and Flu Relief This Season
Essential Oil Steam Treatment
If you don’t happen to have some of the dried herbs available, you can also inhale steam made from essential oils. Terrific mixtures of essential oils for cold and flu symptoms are:
- Clove oil
- Pine oil (read more about benefits of a little known pine tree)
- Eucalyptus oil
- Juniper oil
- Peppermint oil
- Orange oil
Place about two drops of each of these oils in a pot of boiling water and create a tent as you did for the dried herbs.
