Pain means distraction. No matter how happy, enthusiastic, positive or active you are, pain simply ruins every mood and causes a huge hindrance in our daily activities. It pulls our attention from whatever we are doing, destressing us to the level of going insane. Yes! A pain can be that excruciating.
So today, we are going to discuss about some of the effective essential oils that can help us deal with all the trouble caused by pain.
I am listing five essential oils that studies have shown to be effective in reducing the pain.
1. Eucalyptus Oil
Eucalyptus oil is the perfect example of one-man army. It has all the required amazing properties like anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and anti-microbial. Studies have shown that eucalyptus oil gives very promising results in managing the pain of wounds and arthritis, etc.
It also has a cooling effect on sore muscles that ultimately helps with managing the muscle stiffness and pain.
2. Rosemary oil
Rosemary oil has potential anti-inflammatory properties. It shows clinically proven effects in managing the pain of menstrual cramps, rheumatic disorders and backpain when applied topically.
When diffused and scent is inhaled, it shows wonderful results in respiratory conditions like allergies causing throat and chest pain.
Rosemary tea helps in providing relief from cough and cold. Taste with health benefits!
3. Chamomile oil
Chamomile oil is known for its soothing effect. It has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Used for treating various health conditions, its benefits have a long list. A clinical review published in the journal Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine tells us that it gives effective results in managing the pain associated with muscle spasms, menstrual cramps, ulcers, hemorrhoids and rheumatic pain.
It also shows clinically proven results in conditions like sunburn, eczema and psoriasis.
4. Lavender oil
Lavender oil is even more powerful that chamomile in some ways. It is an effective analgesic and anti-inflammatory oil.
Clinical reviews show that lavender oil potentially alleviated muscle pain and backaches.
Studies have shown that lavender oil has given amazing results in pain related to skin conditions as painful as cystic acne. Its topical application is comparably more effective than the drug tramadol.
The scent of diffused lavender oil help in providing relief in migraine-headache.
5. Sweet majoram oil
Last but not the least in fact is Sweet majoram oil. It really has the sweetness of its name in its actions. There is a never ending list of its benefits. But I will state a few here.
Sweet majoram oil works wonders in muscle and nerve related painful conditions. Its analgesic properties hit hard on the pain associated with toothaches, headaches, muscle tension and spasms.
It shows effective results in bruise or contusion as it helps in regulation of the blood flow.
Moreover, it also has a healing effect on the wounds. Pain relief and healing in one!
You know what the best part is, unlike other analgesic prescription medications available in the market it has not adverse effects on health.
