Fatigue

[Magic is Might!]

Hi I have a female client who is suffering from constant fatigue/loss of energy. She has been with her GP who acknowledges that her energy levels are low and has perscribed medication for a mild depression (very mild), eminating from being made redundant.

I have been noting her diet and also am well aware of reflex points (to treat via reflexology) and I have some experience in dealing with stress and with fibromyalgia, via aromatherapy.

This evening i've unsuccessfully tried searching this site for previous discussions on fatigue and for related positive outcomes from the use of EOs/aromatherapy.

Has anybody any useful experiences to share?

Your interest will be much appreciated

Thanks
Anxious

Off the top of my head I would use either bergamot or maychang for a gentle pick-me-up which would gently revitalise too.
I would also consider using a hormone balancer such as geranium or clary sage.

When you're searching the net perhaps put in ME or chronic fatigue and see what comes up then.

will think on and see if anything else springs to mind.

Thanks for your reply

I have looked at ME already and i've also treated 2 persons with fibromyalgia but in this case I was trying a different approach by looking at the possible links that may exist between being made redundant, becoming slightly depressed and then experiencing fatigue!

Looking at what I posted, I realise I missed anothe vital piece of information - the client suffered from glandular fever about 5 years ago and really has never fully recovered! Since then she would experience tiredness readily and especially if her sleep was not as long as she would wish it to be! I had a work colleague with GF who ultimately succumb to ME and had to retire, so I have a little appreciation of what you are eluding to.

Following the bout of GF she took a herbal 'pick me up' tonic and that did work wonders and i've advised she consider doing this once again and I plan to do a full dietary analysis to assist by way of ensuring 'eating appropriate foodstuffs'

Many thanks

Sounds like this client has suffered a 'loss'. Loss of job, loss of energy, loss of self esteem.
Suggest restorative oils for grief and attraction of positive energy (floral oils) - Rose, Jasmine or Neroliperhaps
