Thyroid
For complete information on Hyper- and Hypo- thyroid, please read first the pages from the Essential Oils Reference Desk attached below.
Here is additional information.
A good acquaintance of mine had a thyroid problem for many years. She is finally completely balanced. What was her solution - cleansing, physical and spiritual.
There is always a choice of therapeutic grade essential oils to pick from for every condition. When choosing an oil, please keep in mind that each oil benefits us in more than 1 way, from emotional to physical spectrum.
According to Louise Hay, emotionally, probable causes of the thyroid problems are "Humiliation. "I never get to do what I want to do. When is it going to be my turn?"". The new thought pattern she suggests is: I move beyond old limitations and now allow myself to express freely and creatively".
Here are some choices of essential oils specifically for thyroid:
Myrtle
Lemongrass (I heard a story at a seminar that someone, by using Lemongrass, grew back a healthy thyroid after a huge part of it was removed with a surgery, )
Clove
Endoflex
From Awaken to Healing Fragrance by Ekizabeth Anne Jones
"The thyroid gland produces a major hormone, thyroxin, affecting metabolism by the rate of glucose conversion to body heat, especially in the reproductive and nervous system. The oils of Myrrh (Commiphora myrrha) and Palmarosa (Cymbopogan martini) benefit the thyroid gland. The hormone calcitonin decreases blood calcium levels by causing calcium to be deposited in bones. The herbs of nettles and comfrey reinforce this action."
To better help yourself, and to apply the oils on the reflex points, please read the entire using oils for different problems page, and follow the foot or hand chart attached.
For example, for your hand, use this chart, your hand, and use this chart for your foot.
Please refer to Chakra Page for balancing Throat chakra:
"The health of each organ system depends on proper functioning of the associated chakra. For example, the throat chakra brings in subtle enrgy for a stable thyroid"
"Fifth chakra, throat
The fifth chakra relates to the expression of one's truth and taking responsibility for one's life.
Color is blue.
Endocrine gland is thyroid.
Element is ether.
Organs are lungs and respiratory system.
Oils are Chamomile ( Chamomaemelum nobile) and Palmarosa"
I would also recommend a cleanse, and the Raindrop Technique, which is also mentioned on the using oils for different problems page.

Have had 2 thyroid cysts for 2 years now. One is visible and one is not. The one that is not was drained a few months ago and about 3 months later, began to come back. I am very thin so it is very visible.
After consulting my upline, he told me to try Balsam Fir and Frankincence neat, directly on the cyst, morning and night for 2 weeks. In a week and a half, it was gone. This was also with prayer and the laying on of hands!

I studied the testimonials on this site about thyroid conditions and I learned about using Myrtle oil. My problem has been being sleepy all the time. Just placing Myrtle on my arches and EndoFlex on my big toe has been very helpful. Before I go to sleep, I add Lavendar Oil for relaxation.

Swollen Thyroid Diminished

My husband had an enlarged thyroid that was pressing against his voice box making it hard to talk. The VA hospital wanted to remove the thyroid gland and the surrounding lymph glands before receiving the results of a biopsy on his thyroid for cancer. He found out it wasn't cancerous so started to use Endoflex on it every day and started taking Thyromin supplements. Within a few months the swelling had gone away and his TSH blood test results were normal!! No surgery was needed!!

I used Myrrh & Myrtle: Two drops of Myrrh each morning & night before bed of each day on bottom of big toe. And the next day two drops of Myrtle on each big toe. I did this for a month. My eyebrow on the end have growed back. I got checked again after a month. And thyroid was okay.

Dear Jerry and YL Oil Lovers:
Inflammatory foods are different for everyone. There are some that lower pH
(potential Hydrogen) more than others making us (more) acidic. Coffee is one of
those for me. In addition, I have a sensitivity to gluten and (more to) dairy
from cow and not as noticeable to goat derived dairy. Sugar is another that
when over consumed (see
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/05/02/is-sugar-toxic.asp\
x) can contribute to a myriad of health issues.
Just eliminating and/or reducing these 4 things from my diet (gluten, dairy
(cow), coffee and sugar) has made an incredible change to my sensitivity to any
of the "Poison" plants (Ivy, Sumac and Oak).
It is also good to note that I had a sluggish Thyroid (which affects the proper
functioning of your body). Using the YL Endogize, Endoflex, Thyromin, Myrtle
and Sulfurzyme to name a few (not all at once, but rotating in 60 to 90 day
cycles) has also blessed me with more energy and a basal temperature that used
to be in the 95's (at any point of the day, not just the morning) to range in
the upper 97's to 98's.
Health is a journey and not a destination in my opinion. Our bodies will repair
themselves if we give them the proper conditions. Finding what works for us as
individuals (and it can change!) is paramount. My wife has found which daily
foods she has a inflammatory reaction to using the book "The Plan: Eliminate the
Surprising "Healthy" Foods That Are Making You Fat--and Lose Weight Fast" link

Be Blessed and Well!
