Blend 4-6 drops of essential oil with one tablespoon of a carrier oil and apply a small amount of the mixture to the temples and massage gently. Be sure to stay away from the eyes.
Headache can also be relieved by smelling the oil: sprinkle a few drops of the oil onto a cloth or tissue, or use an aromatherapy diffuser or vaporizer.
Use about 10 drops of essential oil per 1 ounce of carrier oil and massage this oil blend
into any body part where your muscles are sore.
Put a few drops of essential oil in a hot bath and add 2-3 cups of Epsom salt. It’s a good idea to mix the essential oil drops in a small amount of carrier oil first and then add to the bath.
To make hot compress take about a pint of hot water, as warm as you can comfortably tolerate, and add about 4 drops of your selected essential oil to it.
Then place a small towel on top of the water and let it soak it up.
Next squeeze the excess water and place it over the painful area.
A cold compress is made exactly the same as the hot compress, but ice or refrigerated water is used instead of the hot water,and the compress is replaced when it has heated up to body temperature.
Mix all the ingredients in a glass jar, and leave to infuse for 1 week.
Strain the oil and massage it into the affected area to treat muscle and joint pain
