For liver & backache, massage oil blends?

Here's some of what I use for my low back. I've learned that much of my

lower back pain is digestion related so I kind of work it with my colon and

liver in mind. Single oils of marjoram, nutmeg, basil, Roman chamomile and

/ peppermint. I just add 3 - 5 drops of whichever (normally peppermint and

chamomile or marjoram) to a tablespoon or so of carrier oil. Massage on

colon, stomach or on the reflex points on the feet. Only on really bad

occasions might I use a compress or hot pack.

 

However, it really depends on what is the cause for the back pain.

Herniated Disk? Nerve Damage? Lumbago? These call for different oils.

Like, just for an old fashioned aching back maybe clary sage with lavender,

or peppermint, geranium or basil. Kinda depends. And also, it really takes

each of getting more in touch with our own body language and listening to

our body talk to us via intuition to find what is right for each of us.

 

Oh, so much to learn!!!!

 

Wishing you well, in all ways.

 

Lynn

Thanks to Lynn for help with my question about EOs for the

liver. I went reading as many aromatherapy books as I

could find -- different ones said different things -- and

the two oils they agreed on the most for hepatic benefit

were Rose and Rosemary. Also maybe Camomile. I

experimented putting together some Rose & Rosemary oils in

almond oil to make a massage oil specifically for

therapeutic massage on the liver.

 

If anyone could suggest the best possible formula for this

idea, I would be very grateful.

 

Also, what would be the best massage oil blend for chronic

lower back pain?

 

Thank you.
