IF the problem is due to a spasm in the muscle .. and it could be .. simply sniffing Origanum will probably work. Its one of the most effective antispasmodic oils around .. relaxes muscles big time. When I was a yonker I rode a Mae West in .. reserve was open but I still bounced like a rubber ball. Today it would kill me .. back then it was just an experience to brag about. Since then .. a couple of times a year I get the damnedest spasms imaginable .. I have to hang on to the furniture to get out of bed. Its probably from the sciatic nerve .. not sure. Anyway .. I sniff Origanum for 3-4 minutes and EVERY time I get temporary relief. I still act like an old man for a couple of days or I will hurt it again .. but temporarily relief ain't bad methinks. If the problem you have is not due to spasms .. then you won't get relief from the Origanum .. but you might kick some Big Bad Bug Butts whilst sniffing it. > Thanks so much! > Always in faith, > Kati Wackum .. y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch http://www.AV-AT.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
