"I just wanted to pass along my thoughts (and thanks!) about your Cold and Flu line of products. Recently, my 18 month old daughter came down with a nasty cold which was interrupting her sleeps, both at night and during the day. Since the removal of all cough and cold medications for children under two from store shelves, and the recent warnings about the safety and effectiveness of any such medications for children under the age of six, I was at a loss as to what I could do to make her more comfortable. After searching on-line for 'home remedies' and asking a few friends, I remembered that I had been given some of Rocky Mountain Soap's Cold and Flu products (room spray, butter and roll-on) from a friend of mine. I doctored my daughter up with them and was relieved to find that she had a much more restful and uninterrupted sleep that night! I sent her to the day-home the following day with the products so that they could use them on her before her nap. They too noticed a marked improvement in her symptoms and comfort level. I have since passed along the names of all the products to them as they are keen to try them out on their own kids.
Thanks for yet another great product!
Sincerely,
Pam (and daughter Colby)
