Aromatherapy Literature Information
Ringworm fungus infects the skin causing scaly round itchy patches. It is infectious and can be spread from an animal or human host.

Manuka was found to be effective against Staphylococcus aureus and ringworm; Manuka oil was found to be much stronger against Gram-positive organisms (about 20 times stronger than tea tree) (Cooke and Cooke 1994, Perry et al 1997b) Price, Len; Price, Shirley (2011-11-11). Aromatherapy for Health Professionals

“Ringworm” is a generic term used to describe many species of fungi which cause diseases of the outer layer of skin. Strictly speaking, athlete’s foot is ringworm. Here we are concerned with other forms that affect the skin, anywhere on the body but especially the scalp. The name “ringworm” comes from the ring shape that appears on the skin and which is formed as the disease spreads outward in a circular shape. This outer ring marks the active area of the disease while the center heals as the fungi move outward. Ringworm is very itchy. If it appears on the scalp it can cause small patches of hair to be lost temporarily. Sometimes an allergic reaction causes small itchy blisters to appear on parts of the body that can be far removed from the ringworm itself. Ringworm is infectious and can be caught from people and domestic animals. Use these oils to treat it: Tea tree, Thyme ct linalol, Lavender and Tea tree essential oil provides an extremely effective treatment for ringworm. Apply 1 neat drop over the infected area three times a day until it’s clear. This should take no more than ten days. After that, apply an oil composed of 30 drops of tea tree diluted in 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Rub over the area daily. Worwood, Valerie Ann (2012-08-23). The Complete Book of Essential Oils and Aromatherapy

Application Suggestions (See Essential Oil Usage for more information and a Dilution Chart.)
Topical: Dilute with a carrier oilunscented lotion or unscented cream and apply on area of concern or as desired. Consider using a roll-on applicator for ease of application of prediluted oil. To avoid risk of skin irritation due to Peppermint, the maximum topical use level is 50%.

Since Ring-Go 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 

We stopped adding the fractionated coconut oil to allow folks to dilute the blend with the carrier of their choice and to the percentage dilution they prefer.

For a 40% concentration of EO in a 15mL-size bottle (this is the way we offered it when we diluted it with FCO):
157 drops of Tea Tree
90 drops of Spearmint
22 drops of Peppermint
Add carrier to about 1/4" below the shoulder of the bottle (see image below).

For a 25% concentration of EO in a 15mL-size bottle:
65 drops of Tea Tree
37 drops of Spearmint
10 drops of Peppermint
Add carrier to about 1/4" below the shoulder of the bottle (see image below)
 
Children: For infants and children, please follow the Dilution Chart on the Babies and Children page. 

Inhalation: Diffuse or use a personal Nasal Inhaler

1. I used RING-GO on my three-month-old baby, and it cleared it right up. I was very thankful that I didn't need to put something potentially harmful on her. C.L.

2. Knowing that ringworm is a fungus, I thought that I would try your RING-GO blend out for another ailment. This blend works GREAT as an effective antifungal treatment for athletes foot. I put a small amount on my daughter's foot for three nights at bedtime, and it was completely eliminated. It even brought instant relief to her itching. I am so glad that something natural could be used instead of all those unpronounceable chemicals I've used in the past. It smells great also!

3. I used LAVENDER on a patch of ringworm on my 4-month-olds face and it cleared in 2 days. Yay! - Julie

4. There's actually a type of eczema that mimics the look of ringworm (look up Nummular Eczema). I'm currently treating a spot on my arm with the very issue. I have used LAVENDER on it mixed with coconut oil or grapeseed oil. Both blends seem to help mine. - Ricci

5. We have had a bout of ringworm. The Plague Defense and Lavender were barely holding it at bay. I ordered the CLEANSING, and wow! Using it twice a day, it stopped the itching within 36 hours and halted the progression of the sores. Amazing! - Julia

6. I discovered a ringworm rash on my side Monday afternoon. I applied Hopewell’s HOME RUN blend with added TEA TREE and LAVENDER diluted in coconut oil to the rash throughout the week. By Saturday the ringworm that was bright red, round and raised. By Monday, it had flattened out, dried up and was healing very nicely. - Lindsay

7. I am especially grateful to the Lord for HEO and for the essential oils you provide at this point in my life. I've got an amazing nutritionist who is working day by day with me to eradicate a horrific case of systemic ringworm. Oddly, we are having the most success with LAVENDER, BIRCH and LEMON essential oils topically. I'm consuming large quantities of CASSIA, spread out thru the day. It's slow going, (3 weeks now), but I am improving. Knowing that this type of bacterial infection is difficult to eradicate helps me be patient. Knowing that HEO is there and will get my order out rapidly, is a great comfort. Thank you for your MINISTRY! I pray the Lord rewards you well! - Julia
UPDATE a few days later: I just got word from my practitioner to reduce the Birch applications on my hands and feet by half, and she switched me from taking Cassia (32 drops daily) orally to Oregano (3 drops daily) orally. My rash looks much improved today, and the itching has gradually been diminishing (as long as I don't get chilled). I am blessed to have one of the most intelligent, gifted, God-honoring practitioners in the world. We have been working at eradicating this evil bacteria for more than three weeks, and the essential oils have been the main player. (I have been following a clean, mostly-raw whole foods diet, including filtered water, for years. I continue with that and with taking my therapeutic-grade whole-food supplements. I am taking extra magnesium and calcium and trace minerals, as well as mega-doses of D3.) I am amazed at the efficacy and power of these oils, but I suppose I shouldn't be. After all, the Creator of the universe made them!! He does all things well! Amen! - Julia

8. I resolved ringworm with TEA TREE oil. - Dana

Safety
Avoid contact with the eyes and other sensitive areas. Essential oils are both lipophilic and hydrophobic. Lipophilic means they are attracted to fat—like the membranes of your eyes 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 eyes or skin. We’ve not known this to cause permanent injury or long-term discomfort, but if you feel concerned, please call your health care provider.
