READ WHAT ONE CLIENT HAD TO SAY ABOUT BLUE TANSY FOR HER ALLERGIES!
Blue Tansy is an excellent first aid remedy for radiation burns from cancer treatment, as well as for inflamed or sun damaged skin.
My friend Sylla, owner of Atlantic Institute of Aromatherapy, used Blue Tansy for relieving radiation burns from her treatment for cancer.
In Ayurvedic Medicine, an ancient system of healing practiced in India, the sweetly cooling and spicy aroma of Blue Tansy is ideal to regulate and pacify ALL the Doshas or bodymind types. Vata, Pitta and Kapha imbalances respond well to Blue Tansy’s regulating influence.
Symptoms of Vata imbalance are premenstrual syndrome, constipation, insomnia, restlessness, nervousness, anxiety and worry.
Symptoms of Pitta imbalance are high blood pressure, anger, frustration and emotional upsets.
Symptoms of Kapha imbalance are high cholesterol, low metabolic forces, slow to lose weight, fluid retention, stagnation and blockage, lethargy and depression.
