Essential Oil Inflammation Recipe
There are anti -inflammatory medications available, although they do have a number of side effects you need to be careful of. Fortunately, there are a number of natural essential oils that can provide a safe and effective treatment for inflammation.
CINNAMON
This oil improves circulation, thus alleviating muscles and joints of pain and stiffness. Cinnamon is able to provide this relief due to the fact that it contains blood -thinning properties.
ROSEMARY
Use this oil for its antispasmodic and analgesic properties. The two chemical compounds that make Rosemary a top -notch pain fighter are Carnosol and Carnosic; they help reduce inflammation in the muscles and joints, while also acting as antioxidants. If you regularly experience migraines, it is highly beneficial to add diluted Rosemary essential oil to the temples
VETIVER
The anti-inflammatory ability of this oil is due largely to its calming and soothing properties. Vetiver is beneficial in aiding the circulatory system and can help in times of extreme weather exposure. It is great for relieving pain associated with arthritis.
