My name is David Oller, and I'm new to this list.
I'd like to thank Barbara for her welcome letter.
I have not been diagnosed as having Parkinson's at this time. Both my father
and his father, and my mother's mother died of Parkinson's. I have been
diagnosed, for some years, with Chronic Type "C" Hepatitus which is in
advanced stages.
Recently, I've begun getting "shaky" at times. It manifests in my hands, but
I get a kind of general quakiness all over. For the last several years I've
been working with various aromas and imported incense in relation to various
types and kinds of mediation. Studying the emotional properties and
consciousness properties. I am not an Aroma Therapist in the sense of
medical properties of essential oils and such. The area I've been
investigating is very specialized and deals with memory recall, creativity,
and states of consciousness as they relate to various forms of Buddhist and
Indian meditation.
I hope everyone will take what I have to say in the spirit that it is
intended. I certainly don't have any scientific evidence, nor can I state
that this has anything to do with Parkinson's in any case. I can only say
simply what I have experienced.
About fourteen days ago I was getting ready to meditate using a technique
called Shamatha. I have been trying several types of incense and diffusion
of oils with this meditation. This time I used pure sandalwood. Just before
I started I began to get the shakes, but I went ahead and "sat" (that's what
we call meditation: sitting) Very quickly the shakes went away. A few days
later while I was working on the computer I got the shakes again. I burned
some more pure sandalwood and the shakes left very quickly.
I haven't had a third opportunity, or I would have tried some pure
sandalwood oil on the skin. Sandalwood is non toxic and good for every kind
of skin. The Aromatherapy guide I have says it is also good for coughs and
congestion. Please understand I am in no way suggesting anyone try this, or
that it may be some kind of miracle cure, but I feel I would be remiss if I
didn't mention it to someone who may be able to check it out and research it
further. The sandalwood incense I mentioned is very expensive and comes from
Japan, but sandalwood oil has the same properties and can be found at most
Natural Food Groceries. Most Sandalwood Candles have synthetic ingredients
which I wouldn't recommend to the most healthy person.
If you do try this, I would appreciate you letting me know what kind of
results you found.
Sincerly,
David Oller
