How to Make Aromatherapy Oil for Athlete's Foot

If you are looking for a soothing, all natural remedy for the treatment and prevention of athlete's foot, try a simple aromatherapy oil. During bouts of athlete's foot, you can massage the oil into the feet 2 or 3 times daily, or to prevent athlete's foot just one time each day, after bathing.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 6-oz. dark glass bottle
• Small pot of water
• 3 tbsp. olive oil
• 2 tbsp. jojoba oil
• 1 tsp. vitamin E oil
• 20 drops tea tree oil
• 10 drops lavender essential oil

1. Remove the cap from your bottle and place both into a small pot of water. Heat the water to a rolling boil and watch for 1 minute. Turn off the heat and wait for the water to cool before removing the bottle and cap. Leave them upside down to drain and dry.

2. Pour 3 tbsp. of extra virgin olive oil, 2 tbsp. of jojoba oil and 1 tsp. vitamin E oil into the bottle. Add 20 drops of tea tree oil and 10 drops of lavender essential oil

3. Cap the bottle tightly and gently shake the oil. You can use the remedy immediately but continue to shake the bottle 2 or 3 times a day for 3 days to help the oils blend completely. As long as you sterilize the bottle, use fresh ingredients and store your aromatherapy oil in a cool, dark place, it should keep for at least 18 months.
