This really works!!
VICKS VAPORUB...TRY IT, IT WORKS
I wish I'd known this when my family was young during winter colds and
coughs. I am going to try it myself. Share with young parents.
Isn't life strange. When we had a lecture on Essential Oils, they told us
how the foot soles can absorb oils. Their example: Put garlic on your feet
and within 20 minutes you can 'taste' it.
Some of us have used Vicks Vaporub for years for everything from chapped
lips to sore toes and many body parts in between. But I've never heard of
this. And don't laugh, it works 100% of the time although the scientists at
the Canada Research council (who discovered it) aren't sure why.
To stop night time coughing in a child (or adult as we found out
personally), put Vicks Vaporub generously on the bottom of the feet at
bedtime, then cover with socks. Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will
stop in about 5 minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of relief.
Works 100% of the time and is more effective in children than even very
strong prescription cough medicines. In addition it is extremely soothing
and comforting and they will sleep soundly. I heard the head of the Canada
Research Council describe these findings on the part of their scientists
when they were investigating the effectiveness and usage of prescription
cough medicines in children as compared to alternative therapies like
acupressure.
Just happened to tune in A.M.Radio and picked up this guy talking about why
cough medicines in kids often do more harm than good due to the chemical
makeup of these strong drugs so,I listened. It was a surprise finding and
found to be more effective than prescribed medicines for children at
bedtime, in addition to have a soothing and calming effect on sick children
who then went on to sleep soundly. Polly tried it on herself when she had a
very deep constant and persistent cough a few weeks ago and it worked 100%!
She said that it felt like a warm blanket had enveloped her, coughing
stopped in a few minutes and believe me, this was a deep, (incredibly
annoying!) every few seconds uncontrollable cough, and she slept cough-free
for hours every night that she used it. If you have grandchildren, pass it
on. If you end up sick, try it yourself and you will be absolutely amazed by
the effect.
