Steve's Story

I know what it’s like, my life got flipped upside down too! The doctors and
professionals couldn’t provide me with advice or remedies to help with
common issues. Thankfully I trusted my wife as she taught me how to use
essential oils and related products to aid in rapid healing both physically and
mentally in my new life.

Wound Care

Steroids and removing sutures too soon meant washout surgery and wound vac.

Reduce healing time
Eliminate infection worries
Decrease scaring

Phantom “Pain"

You know it’s not there and yet it’s still causing you discomfort or downright pain.

Decrease frequency
Reduce intensity
Mental support

Follicular Sores

Follicular sores are no walk in the park. They burn, hurt, bleed & more than annoy.

Help prevent from getting or returning
Alleviate burning
Improve overall skin condition

Meet me and my family. I’m a devoted husband, father, avid golfer and below knee amputee as of October 24, 2016. Thanks to my mindset, willpower and doTERRA essential oils, even with 6 surgeries and 3 months with a wound vac I was back out on the golf course (or Top Golf - we do live in Colorado) in late March of 2017.

Palm Springs, CA - October 2017

My son, Talon, an active young man has used essential oils for sleep, to control nightmares, focus - on and off the lacrosse field, and allergies to name a few.

And my wife, Danette, who you're already getting to know, quickly realized that there had to be better solutions for all the issues that are now prevalent in my life.

Woman of Amputee
Support Group

The group was started by Lauren, based in the UK. She felt there were lots of support groups for her husband, who had a LBKA on January 3, 2020, but quickly realized as she began feeling alone and not knowing the best way to care for her husband that it was time to start a support group for women who are in similar situations.

This group is open to all women who are looking to bond and build friendships with like-minded, caring, loving women.

You can join the group via Instagram: @woa_support_group or the group meets monthly via Zoom (evening for UK, afternoon for USA). Reach out to Lauren via IG or email: woaamp2020@outlook.com.
