If the discomfort of cystitis (bladder infection) increases, or there is blood or pus when you urinate, see a doctor immediately.

Drink lots of water, cranberry juice and chamomile tea at the first signs of cystitis.

Use one Garlic capsule as a suppository placed up the rectum.

Make an aromatic wash with 3 drops each of Bergamot and Tea Tree in 17 fl oz (500 ml) of boiled, cooled water. Use this frequently as a local wash, making sure that you swab the opening of the urethra.

Make a hot compress using Bergamot, Chamomile and Sandalwood and place it over the abdomen, repeating as the compress cools.

To help prevent cystitis, take regular baths with Tea Tree, Lavender, Bergamot and Roman Chamomile.
