Supports efforts to detox the lymphatic system, liver and kidneys (diuretic) by supporting lymph drainage.

Robert Tisserand wrote: “Perhaps paradoxically, some essential oils have shown liver-protective effects in animal studies. This is NOT detoxifying the liver, but protecting it from toxicity from a specific substance, for example, from chronic alcohol abuse or high-dose acetaminophen. Toxic effects may include oxidative stress and fatty liver. This will not apply to you unless you are taking these substances. And it may not apply at all, since currently there is no clinical evidence - no evidence that this works the same in humans as it does in rodents. It’s also important to understand that the essential oils which are the strongest antioxidants with liver-protective effects (clove, thyme, oregano…) only have this effect in low doses. In high doses the effect reverses, becoming pro-oxidant, and this is potentially harmful, especially to the liver. 

Therefore an essential oil heavy “detox” program makes little or no sense. You can read more on this topic here: Essential Oils and the Detox Theory."

Consider adding Bay Laurel and Niaouli to the blend to address stagnant lymph flow.

Lymph Massage
A recurring sore throat that comes on suddenly, accompanied by extreme exhaustion with tender, swollen lymph nodes in the neck that leave you with no energy and an overall awful feeling, are definitely symptoms that confirm that you are struggling with something.  
+Lymph massage is beneficial. Massage the oils on the arms and legs toward the heart, stroking 10 times each, and keep moving rather than lying around (even though you feel ill). You can do the massage every two hours. For the best results, ask someone to do this for you. 
+Increase water intake and eat some raw greens to get the detox moving.  
+Absolve has been helpful for some. You would apply it to the upper back right below the neck in an area about as large as a grapefruit. The entire lymph system runs through this area, so it will be picked up and circulated throughout the body to assist with healing.  
+Test your pH. There is a wealth of information online about getting the body alkaline. We try to eat something raw at every meal, along with a large green salad, to keep our pH balanced and avoid acidity (which is where disease thrives). - Lana (Health Care Professional)
Application Suggestions (See Essential Oil Usage) for more information and a Dilution Chart.)
Topical: Dilute with a carrier oil, unscented lotion or cream and apply under the arms and/or over lymph glands. 

Since Lymphatic Cleanse does not have a limiting dilution parameter, we suggest that adults follow the General Guidelines found on the Dilution Chart, which is:
2-3% for daily application
Up to 25% for short-term use 
 
Children: For infants and children, please follow the Dilution Chart on the Babies and Children page. 

Phototoxic Caution: If applying to skin that will be exposed to direct sunlight or UV light, maximum topical use is 12%.

Inhalation: Diffuse or directly inhale.

Internal: Lymphatic Cleanse is suitable for internal use within safe parameters if such use is deemed appropriate. Internal use is rarely needed and should only be used with respect for how concentrated the oils are. HEO does not advocate internal use of essential oils without appropriate knowledge and understanding of how to administer, for what purpose, how much, which essential oils, safety concerns and so on. In our experience, essential oils are generally more effective when used topically with proper dilution or inhaled. Kurt Schnaubelt, Ph.D., notes, "French aromatherapy literature contains many references to using oils orally." He notes that "generally, one drop is always enough when ingesting essential oils." A potential toxicity hazard could occur when untrained people use essential oils orally and ingest too much. Keep in mind that while medical doctors or health care practitioners may prescribe essential oils for internal use, they are trained and experienced in the safe application of essential oils. It is not a matter of using "French" or "British" methods; it's a matter of experience and appropriate application.

Some have reported that it has been helpful to drink 1/2 your body weight in ounces of filtered water daily. If you need to add Lymphatic Cleanser to your water, use only glass, ceramic or stainless steel—not plastic. Shake vigorously, then drink.

1. I had several very troubling health issues, and my lymph glands were extremely sore and swollen. I called Hopewell Essential Oils and asked them if they knew of an essential oil that might help me. Linda mixed this blend up for me, and in just a few days of simply adding a few drops to each quart of water I drank (at least ½ gallon per day), my problems began clearing up. This oil blend is fantastic, and I’m very impressed! – Helen

2. I was experiencing very strange lumps on my forehead and scalp. At the same time, my lymph glands were sore and swollen. Soon after I started adding a few drops of Lymphatic Cleanse to each quart of water I drank, the lymph glands returned to normal. The lumps on my forehead also began to decrease. I like this blend so much that I still add it to my water daily. – Joan

3. I read your information about acid reflux and ordered Lymphatic Cleanse. I put a few drops in my water (about 3 quarts daily). By the third day, I had what I believe was a detox event. After this, my energy level soared! - J.F.

4. I just discovered a 'deodorant' that really works for me. I use Lymphatic Cleanse and Aloe Vera gel. I squirt some gel into my palm, add several drops of Lymphatic Cleanse blend, mix and coat my underarms and other lymph areas. This is very comfortable on large areas of skin. I let the gel dry before dressing. I'm so happy for a cheap, simple and beneficial deodorant that really works! - Cynthia

5. I hold water when my gallbladder acts up, and I can put a drop of Lymphatic Cleanse in my drinking water to relieve the water retention. - Helen

6. I noticed a sore lump under my right arm, so I ordered the Lymphatic Cleanse. I added 3 or 4 drops mixed with carrier oil and applied it nightly. In less than a week, I can no longer feel the lump. I'll probably be using this for the rest of my life. - Char

7. I've been using Lymphatic Cleanse and woke with some very sore glands in the neck area. I suspected a 'healing crisis' and applied Neuropathy generously with a roll on to the sore glands. The next morning, there were only two glands still sore, so I applied more Neuropathy, and the following morning, the soreness was gone! Even after being in natural healing and living since 1976, I am still amazed at how fast these essential oils work and how amazingly well! God is a good God! - Velma

8. I periodically get swollen and tender lymph nodes. The Lymphatic Cleanse blend helps, but I am not fond of the citrus smell. However, Dr. Hull's Lymph Venus has a beautiful aroma, which is not citrus-smelling. It is effective while smelling better. - Sandy

9. Neuropathy spray has helped me the most so far with the pain associated with lymphedema. I have used a combination of HEOs Tangerine and Lavender (Lavandula Angustifolia) to help move the fluid buildup out of my body. I have read that Ginger EO has been used successfully to move the fluid. I have not yet tried it. - Nora

10. I have lymphedema in my right arm, and I love Lymphatic Cleanse. I add a few drops to my lotion and spread it on. - Mary Ann

11. Lymphatic Cleanse has been very effective for one of my sisters and myself when used in water. - Savannah

Safety
Grapefruit and lemon are photosensitizing. (Irritation may result if you apply to skin that will be exposed to the sun or UV light.) Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for 3 to 12 hours after use. Click here for more information about phototoxic essential oils.

Avoid contact with eye. Essential oils are both lipophilic and hydrophobic. Lipophilic means they are attracted to fat—like the membranes of your eye and skin. They are also hydrophobic, meaning they do not like water. Flushing with water will only send the essential oil back to the eye's membranes. Applying a carrier oil will create another fat for the essential oil to be attracted to other than the membranes of the eye or skin. We’ve not known this to cause permanent injury or long-term discomfort, but if you feel concerned, please call your doctor if necessary.
