Easy Peasy Lemon squeezy I make for me mother Black Pepper, Ginger and juniper with a dabble of Heli Course there are other oils, but I have found this combo to be very nice... I'll also subby out the juniper for Rosemary now and then! ;-) K Cheers!

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 With all the talk of how bad the use of Wintergreen and Birch are, especially for continual use, I'm wondering what would be a truly good, effective, SAFE pain relieving topical application ointment/rub for older folks to use on a regular basis, especially when they are REALLY achy? Most of the commercial products available are laden with Methyl salicylate. I can speculate what should be a good combo of herbs and oils, but being that I thankfully do not at this point in my life suffer from any kind of chronic arthritic aches and pains I'm not myself a good guinea pig to tell what REALLY is most effective for those awfully painful days. I'm wondering if anyone here has any person insight into this one? *Smile* Chris (list mom) http://www.alittleolfactory.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 I don't know the answer, but I'd sure like to hear about this. I have chronic pain from an auto accident.
