Four Massage Oil Blends Address Common Ailments

All blends should be combined with 4 tsp. carrier oil or almond oil prior to applying to the skin.   If you only have a few of the oils suggested for each ailment, just use those.  Using all oils are not necessary to achieve the desired effect, in most cases.  As always, if you are allergic to any of these oils, do not use them.  For best results, store in dark glass containers for up to one month at room temperature and 2 months refrigerated.

Sports Massage Blend:  This blend strengthens and energizes the muscles strained or achy from working out.
4 drops rosemary
2 drops lemon grass
4 drops ginger

Foot Rescue:  This blend soothes feet after a long day.
3 drops peppermint
3 drops black pepper
4 drops lavender

Respiratory Relief:  This blend eases the symptoms of a variety of chest problems.
3 drops cedarwood
3 drops frankincense
4 drops lemon

Shoulder and Neck Rub:  Have someone massage these areas for instant relief.
2 drops vetiver
3 drops ginger
5 drops lavender

Many of these oils can be found at mynsp.com/Edenessentials or www.newdirectionsaromatics.com.
