Lavender Oil
Lavender oil has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, which makes it an effective treatment for poison ivy. The oil can help to dry out the rash and soothe the itchiness and irritation.
In addition to its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, lavender oil also has analgesic properties. This makes it an ideal treatment for poison ivy because it can help to relieve the itchiness, pain, and inflammation associated with the rash.
There are a few different ways that lavender oil can be used for poison ivy treatment. First, apply the oil directly to the rash using a cotton ball or Q-tip. To use lavender oil for poison ivy relief, apply a small amount to the affected area 2 to 3 times a day. It can be diluted with a carrier oil such as jojoba oil or fractionated coconut oil.
Adding a few drops of lavender oil to a bathtub full of warm water and soaking in the tub for 15 to 20 minutes will offer immediate relief. Lastly, lavender oil can help to speed up the healing process and alleviate some of the discomfort associated with poison ivy.
