Muscles and Joints Need Some love.
Pain
makes us uncomfortable in our bodies and emotionally unhappy—no
fun! It can make simply going about our day unpleasant, and stops us
from getting things done.
Tendonitis
is a form of inflammation in the tendons, which are the
chord-like parts of the body that connect muscles to bones. Usually
caused by repetitive movements (like exercise or sitting in the same
position for many hours), injuries or built-up inflammation over
time, tendonitis can cause a lot of pain.
People
over
40
years
old tend to get tendonitis more than younger people, but really
anyone can development symptoms depending on how damaged versus
elastic tendons become. It’s true that as we age, our ligaments,
bones and tendons slowly weaken with everyday wear and tear, so we’re
more likely to experience things like muscle and joint pain.
Tendonitis comes down to experiencing inflamed tendons that are more
susceptible to stress, strain, movement and tears. Despite what most
people assume, this can affect people of all ages, sizes and physical
activity levels, not just serious athletes or the elderly.
Signs indicating that you might have tendonitis include:
-
feeling pains and aches around a specific ligament, joint or muscle
-
swelling and tenderness
-
increased pain when moving or exercising
-
stiffness
-
trouble sleeping due to pain
Common Areas Affected

I grabbed

Peppermint
PanAway
is extremely soothing and comforting, the perfect oil when you need a
deep, relaxing massage. Simply dilute 1:5 with carrier oil, and
massage away
PanAway
is amazing for soothing emotional pain, too!
I
learned that PanAway can be used to help you cope with two negative
emotions:
-
Exhaustion
-
Fear of emotions
For
exhaustion, apply two drops of PanAway with carrier oil to the lower
spine.
For
fear of emotions, apply to the top of the legs, right below the hips.
You
can also diffuse PanAway to help you overcome these emotional
hurdles.
Did
you know PanAway is one of the most valuable oils in the Premium
Starter Kit?
Muscle
aches can be caused by increased physical activity, stress,
nutritional deficiencies, dehydration and hormonal changes.
Almost
everybody has likely experienced discomfort in his or her muscles at
some point.
Because
almost every part of the body has muscle tissue, this type of pain
can be felt practically anywhere.
Using
essential oils for muscle aches is the most effective natural remedy
for fast relief. Mix peppermint oil, cypress
oil together
with coconut oil and rubbing them on the sore muscle is highly
effective.
Put
3 drops of peppermint, 3 drops of cypress and 1 tsp of coconut oil on
the area then cover with hot compress for 1 minute.
