As a person with a sensitive throat, I know the struggle of having a sore throat. It can be very painful and uncomfortable to speak or swallow, but it doesn't have to be that way.

In this blog post you'll find some great essential oil blends for those suffering from a sore throat.
Diffuser Blends for Sore Throat Relief by Loving Essential Oils

Are you suffering from a sore throat? Essential oils can be an effective alternative to over-the-counter medications when dealing with a sore throat. Here are 6 soothing diffuser blends for sore throat to help you support and ease the discomfort.

When used aromatically, pure essential oils can be inhaled and affect the throat and lungs to help kill germs, reduce inflammation and speed healing. You can do this by several methods.

Many enjoy diffusing essential oils because it is easy, cost-effective, and quickly gets essential oils into the body. 

Can Essential Oils Help a Sore Throat?

Diffusing is effective in relieving the symptoms of sore throat as the essential oils go directly through the air passages to the throat. The essential oils act quickly in fighting the infection and relieve the pain and discomfort of the throat ailment.

A sore throat often happens when the tube that links our mouth to our air passage, esophagus and voice box is infected by bacteria or viruses. Alternative remedies for a sore throat call for essential oils with strong antiseptic, antibacterial and antiviral properties.

Additionally, here are some other ways to soothe your sore throat:

  • gargle with warm salt water or apple cider vinegar
  • drink lots of fluids
  • eat citrus fruits like oranges or grapefruit which contain vitamin C

If essential oils and none of these natural remedies work for your sore throat then it's time to see the doctor.

Alternative Aromatic Essential Oil Methods

Prevent the onset of throat infection by using essential oils through inhalation (aromatherapy) or gargling. Besides diffusing the above oils into the air, here are some other things you can try:

Aromatherapy Inhaler

Using an aromatherapy inhaler, apply 15 total drops of essential oils from the above list to the cotton wick. Insert the wick into the inhaler. To use, place inhaler under the nose and deeply inhale the aroma in.

Steaming Bowl

Adding 1-3 drops to a steaming bowl of water and inhaling to another simple way to get sore throat relief method. Learn more about steam inhalation with essential oils.

Essential Oil Jewelry

Try adding a drop of eucalyptus oil or peppermint oil to a diffuser necklace. Bring under nose and inhale a whiff every so often to continue supporting your throat tissue as well as mood.

Use in the Shower

Simply add a few drops to the shower floor right before getting into the shower. I like to use Oregano oil in this manner if I start to feel sick. Studies showed oregano oil efficiency against antibiotic-resistant MRSA both as a liquid and vapor solution.

Oregano essential oil is one of the most sought after antibacterial and antiviral oil solutions that effectively relieve a variety of ailments such as a sore throat, coughs, colds and other respiratory infections.

Inhaling from Palms

Place a drop pf essential oil in palm of the hand, rub palms together and deeply inhale the aroma. Try lemon or rosemary oil for a mood boosting blast.

Car Diffuser

Use in a car diffuser when driving. I like juniper oil, this aromatic oil has a strong woodsy scent with even stronger antimicrobial properties. It is effective against respiratory infection, fatigue, muscle aches, and arthritis.

 Essential Oil Gargle Recipe
  • 1 drop Tea tree oil (or peppermint essential oil)
  • Cup of water

Directions: Place a drop of tea tree or peppermint oil in the cup, stir then  of water and gargle, spit it out when done.

 

 Sore Throat Relief Roller Recipe

Essential oils must be diluted first with carrier oils. Make a simple blend using one or more of the essential oils from the list above, keep in mind that clove and oregano oil are hot oils and they need to but diluted well. I only like to put one drop of either in a roller bottle blend to prevent skin irritation. 

  • 4-8 drops of essential oil
  • 2 teaspoons jojoba oil

Directions: Place drops of essential oil or oils into roller bottle, fill the rest of the bottle with the jojoba oil. Shake to blend then apply essential oils topically to the front of the neck.
