3. Aloe Vera Massage
Aloe vera, also known as the miracle plant for natural beauty, is a trusted choice for many women. It serves not only as a beauty ingredient and food ingredient but also as a quick fever reducer for young children.
Mothers utilize the gel inside aloe vera leaves, gently applying it to their child's body on the feet, hands, forehead, or back. Followed by a gentle massage, the gel provides a soothing, cooling sensation, swiftly lowering the child's body temperature and alleviating fever.
4. Peppermint Oil Massage
Peppermint oil contains menthol, a common ingredient in cough remedies. It can help cool the skin and body during a fever.
Peppermint oil not only helps lower fever in children but also provides a sense of relaxation and relief, with its light peppermint scent dispersing fatigue. Additionally, peppermint oil can clear nasal passages, aiding the respiratory system of the child. Mothers only need to apply a small amount of peppermint oil on the child's chest and temples, then gently massage.
Note: Peppermint oil massage is only suitable for children over 2.5 years old.
5. Olive Oil Massage
Olive oil is a very beneficial ingredient for health and has a very effective fever-reducing effect that not everyone knows about. Massaging with olive oil to reduce fever is applied to children under 2 years old for safety, without affecting their health.
First, gently massage the baby's body with olive oil before bedtime. After massaging, use a warm towel to clean the body, and dress the baby in breathable, soft cotton clothes so their body can sweat and breathe freely. In the morning, it's recommended to bathe with warm water infused with ginger or essential oils. This way, the baby will feel cool and comfortable.
