Main key ingredients: Plai (Zingiber cassumunar) & immortelle (Helichrysum italicum).
Plai essential oil is known as natures voltarol. You may of felt it's benefits if you've ever had a Thai massage. It is a member of the ginger family, unlike ginger and other common massage ingredients which are warming, plai is cooling. When heat/inflammation is present, cooling aids. In Thailand, where the best plai essential oil is found,... it is prized for its powerful anti-inflammatory properties and is being extensively researched.
Helichrysum italicum is my No.1 first aid essential oil, it is incredible, I call it my repair & rejuvenate remedy (I use it for problematic skin concerns too). Of course to have such benefits only the absolute finest essential oil, rich in anti inflammatory constituents will give the desired results. The best anti-inflammatory helichrysum oil has high italidone content, to be sure of this I request have batch specific analysis readouts which can be studied for italidone content before purchase.
I use certain other oils depending on the effect required.
My massage oil blend is so effective, you only need to apply it (no massage needed) for relief - which is a bonus because in some cases, such as injury, massage is not advisable - massage can bring more heat and inflammation.
Of course it depends on the cause of the ache - often massage will be beneficial, but even a simple effleurage (which anyone can do easily and safely - even on yourself if you can reach) in conjunction with my aches and pains blend will bring relief.
Many of my clients and friends use it for:
After sports, gym etc.
My husband (a Neanderthal) uses it religiously after rugby.
Repetitive work
Computer/desk job, hairdressing, gardening.
Regular aches and pains:
Arthritis, back/shoulder/neck ache, period pain.
