Use these Essential Oils daily and get relief from joint and muscle pain

Muscle and joint pain are now a common thing because of the stress and hustle and bustle of the day, working for many hours sitting, or due to increasing age. Joint and muscle pain not only exhausts the body but also makes the mind restless and irritated. Many times we use medicines to relieve the pain, and if you wish to relieve it in a natural manner without any side effects, then Essential Oils, i.e., natural oils, can assist you.

The natural characteristics within essential oils are highly effective for minimizing pain, decreasing swelling, and relieving muscle pain. As long as they are used to being massaged regularly, even the most chronic pain ultimately starts to give relief. These are the best essential oils that can relieve joint and muscle pain. Know how to use them correctly.

Peppermint Oil

Peppermint oil contains menthol, which reduces swelling and stiffness by cooling the painful area. It is known to give instant relief. To use it, you have to mix 1-2 drops of peppermint oil in coconut oil or olive oil and massage the painful area with light hands. Use twice a day.

Lavender Oil

Lavender oil is famous for its anti-inflammatory and relaxing properties. It also helps in reducing muscle tension and getting good sleep. To use it, you have to mix 5-6 drops of lavender oil in one teaspoon of base oil (such as almond or coconut oil) and massage it on the affected area.

Eucalyptus Oil

Eucalyptus oil contains natural pain-relieving elements, which deeply reduce inflammation and cool the muscles. To use it, you have to mix 2-3 drops of eucalyptus oil with a carrier oil and gently massage on the knees, back or shoulders.

Rosemary Oil

Rosemary oil improves blood circulation in the muscles, which provides rapid relief from pain. It is also helpful in reducing spasms (muscle cramps). To use it, you have to mix 5 drops of rosemary oil in 1 teaspoon of olive oil, warm it lightly, and apply it to the painful area.

Ginger Oil

Ginger oil is known for its warming properties. It is very effective in problems like joint pain and arthritis. To use it, you have to mix 2-3 drops of ginger oil in sesame oil, warm it slightly, and slowly massage the painful area.

Things to remember:

• Always apply essential oil mixed with a carrier oil (such as coconut, sesame, or almond oil).
• Do a patch test before applying it to the skin, so that there is no risk of any allergy.
• Massage for at least 10-15 minutes daily, and after the massage, cover that part and rest for a while.
