The eucalyptus is a great remedy for seasonal allergies, and sinus and respiratory infections. We can take advantage of its many benefits through teas, syrups, and by breathing in the steam that’s created when it’s heated up.
There is also eucalyptus oil, which, apart from sinusitis, also combats muscle and joint pain.
Eucalyptus is an analgesic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, decongestant, diuretic, expectorant, and mental stimulant.
Isn’t it incredible how a simple plant can help us in so many ways?
Sinus infections, which can be a real nightmare for lots of people, can be treated because eucalyptus relaxes and dilates the muscles in our trachea, bronchial tubes, and lungs.
This way, the oxygen enters the blood stream, goes to the lungs and then to the rest of the body.
With the rise in oxygen levels, cell combustion goes up and the resulting heat destroys germs and toxins.
When that happens and we have a fever, it will drop.
Eucalyptus has been being used to treat colds and the flu since our grandparents’ time.
Most people don’t know it, but you can use this plant during a hot bath.
Eucalyptus vapor induces a sense of liberty because it relaxes the muscles in the airways, helping with the shortness of breath caused by asthma.

All of this, thanks to its antiviral and antibacterial properties.
All you have to do is hang a few branches on the shower head and tie up them with some string.
Be sure that when you tie them, the water is turned off.
When you go to take hot bath, the plant will release an oil which turns into steam.
This therapeutic bath can help cleanse your lungs and alleviate coughing.
This treatment is also recommended to treat cold and flu symptoms that occur during the winter.
