Do you have back, shoulder or neck pain? Are you also interested in using essential oils? Then you’ve come to the right place!

My husband suffers from chronic neck and shoulder pain.  I have accumulated all different types of essential oils throughout the past year or so, and bought an awesome book with tons of recipes.  I decided to try one for easing back pain. 

The book is called Essential Oils Natural Remedies: The Complete A-Z Reference of Essential Oils for Health and Healing by Althea Press and can be found on Amazon.  Right now it’s free if you have Kindle Unlimited, but I like having a physical copy so that I can earmark pages. 

Now, the recipe I use from this book is intended to use in the bath, but I use it as a roll-on instead.  You will need the following:

• ½ ounce carrier oil (I use coconut oil)
• 6 drops lavender essential oil
• 4 drops ginger essential oil
• 4 drops Roman chamomile essential oil
• 4 drops rosemary essential oil
• 4 drops sage essential oil
• 4 drops thyme essential oil

Combine all of those in a roll-on applicator and shake it up.  Simply roll a little bit on the part of your neck or shoulders that hurt and see if it helps!  My husband swears he can feel the difference within minutes. Let me know in the comments if it works for you!
