Guest guest Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Hi everyone, On the subject of Plai, my information is that the HERB is used extensively for arthritic and joint pain in Thailand, and associated parts of the world. My EXPERIENCE is that the essential oil, blended with the essential oil, Kunzea (Kunzea ambigua), an herb used for the same purpose in Australia and Helichrysum EO (Helichrysum italicum), are good synergistically for arthritic and joint pain. I generally use the blend at a 2% - 3% dilution in a salve or oil for LOCAL pain. (i.e. knee/elbow/wrist, etc.) As usual, there must be taken into consideration that the traditional use for the HERB not be uniformly mistaken for the effect or contraindications of the EO. But, in this case, I've found that it IS effective for rheumatic pain.
