Our specially formulated "Arthritis, Inflammation & Pain Support" Massage Blend of Frankincense, Lavender, Chamomile, Eucalyptus, Wintergreen, Peppermint, Marjoram & Rosemary: Is a great way of reducing the inflammation & pain pathways
Arthritis is a common condition that causes pain, stiffness and swelling in the joints. There are over ten different types of arthritis, including fibromyalgia, lupus, psoriatic arthritis and reactive arthritis, but the two most common types are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. which have some similiar syptoms of inflamation, stiff, tight, painflull joints & swelling of specific areas that limit our ability to do everyday tasks. When a flare up happens it can imobolise us. We need to be able to get on with life pain-free and as soon as possible.
Research studies found regular aromatherapy massage on patients arthritic knees, diminished short-term pain after 2 weeks. They also reported a reduction in fatigue after the fourth week. Other studies have found essential oils have anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. which help in the reduction of pain. They also stated they had lower levels of blood pressure, and may also help to reduce autoimmune responses and prevent cartilage damage.
So we blended together 8 different essential oils using their unique synergies to eliviate these symptoms and help you get back to being your best self again.
When massaging essential oil blends in through the skin, their healing components are absorbed into the bloodstream. From there they disperse to the specific organs and systems on which they work. Some of the essential oils’ components, carried via the bloodstream, can also pass through the blood-brain barrier to the limbic system in the brain, where they can influence the endocrine and autonomic nervous systems.
We use essential oils medicinally to improve the health of the body, mind, and spirit. As it enhances both the physical and emotional body.
Please note that differnt % dillution are used in our blends to be used for each age-group, e.g for Adult 3% dillution, Teenages 2% dillution, - only to be used on the body, NOT on the face as skin in this area is too delicate.
