During a lecture on Essential Oils, they told us how the foot soles can absorb oils. Their example: Put garlic on your feet and within 20 minutes you can 'taste' it.
Some of us have used Vicks Vapo rub for years for everything from chapped lips to sore toes and many body parts in between.
But I've never heard of this. And don't laugh, it works 100% of the time, although the scientists who discovered it aren't sure why. To stop night time coughing in a child (or adult as we found out personally), put Vicks Vaporub generously on the bottom of the feet at bedtime, then cover with socks. Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop in about 5 minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of relief. Works 100% of the time and is more effective in children than even very strong prescription cough medicines. In addition it is extremely soothing and comforting and they will sleep soundly.

簡単に訳すと、あの、子供が風邪をひいたときに、ママの手で胸に塗るヴィックスを足の裏に塗って靴下を履くとせきが止まると言う。
たあくんやなおくんが風邪をひくのを待っていたわけでは無いが、なおくんが風邪をひいたので、試してみた。
足の裏にヴィックスを足の裏に塗って靴下を履き、待つ事約10分、せきが止まった。さらにコロッと寝た。そのまま5時間ぐらい寝てくれました。夜中の1時、またコンコンせきをしはじめたので、再びヴィックスを足の裏に塗る。またコロッと寝る。明け方までせきをしませんでした。また、今晩もやってみます。
ちなみに、マーヴィンとたあくんはサリーちゃんと一緒に昨日からLAに。一泊して帰ってくるそうです。なおくんとママはなおくんが風邪のためお留守番です。
