Thieves Products
Transformational Health in Palos Verdes carries the renowned Thieves products from Young Living Oils. The inception of the Thieves product line dates back to the bubonic plague. During these times, specifically in 1413, four thieves were accused of robbing victims of the plague. To lessen their sentence, they were required to reveal how they managed to escape infection while robbing the dying and dead. The secret was a mixture of aromatic herbs that was rubbed on the temples, ears and hands. Thieves’ oil is based on that mixture of aromatic herbs that prevented the thieves from contracting the bubonic plague. Transformational Health promotes the use of Thieves products for healing and support of the immune system.
