Evidence suggests lavender's anti-inflammatory properties may help with allergies, particularly respiratory and skin-related ones, though more human trials are needed. Research in animal models indicates lavender oil can suppress allergic reactions, reduce nasal inflammation, and inhibit inflammatory markers. For topical use, it has shown potential for suppressing atopic dermatitis (eczema) but can also cause irritation and allergic reactions in some individuals, so caution is advised.
Respiratory allergies
Inflammation reduction: Lavender's anti-inflammatory properties may help reduce the swelling of nasal passages and sinuses associated with allergic rhinitis (hay fever).
Asthma models: Studies on mice have shown that inhaling lavender oil can suppress allergic airway inflammation.
Usage: Inhaling the steam from a bowl with a few drops of lavender oil is one proposed method to help with nasal inflammation, but it is important to note this is based on its anti-inflammatory properties rather than direct evidence of allergy relief in humans.
I tried taking lavender by capsule and it worked great for my allergies but everyone is different
