Paddle Upstream
Custom-blend essential oil products
Paddle Upstream has a delightful fresh, crisp aroma. It contains essential oils of Lemon, Juniper, Cypress and Fennel. According to Shirley and Len Price (based on tests in the UK), these oils have antiseptic, antiviral, diuretic, phlebotonic and astringent properties. My hospice massage therapists love to use this for arm, ankle and leg edema, using soft upward strokes.
What's certain is that this combination is reminiscent of trailing your feet in the cool water while someone else does the paddling upstream - lazy, cool, calm and satisfying.
