Our top essential oils to help with pain relief

Aromatherapy has been used for centuries around the world. It is a complimentary modality that can help with many conditions including pain relief. Many essential and carrier oils have been found to be useful in providing relief due to their anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Whether you're looking for a natural way to manage chronic pain or just seeking to find a little comfort after a long day, certified aromatherapists have identified several essential and carrier oils that are highly effective in providing pain relief. 

Here are our top essential oils and carrier oils for pain relief, and the potential benefits they can offer.

Pain is a common problem that plagues many individuals. Fortunately, there are natural remedies that can provide relief from pain and inflammation. Aromatherapy is an ancient practice that uses essential oils to promote healing and wellness. One of the most popular ways to use essential oils for pain relief is through a blend of anti-inflammatory and analgesic essential oils.

From warming, soothing oils like Ginger and Black Pepper to cooling, calming oils like Lavender and Eucalyptus, these essential oils can provide natural relief from pain and inflammation.

  • Ginger Essential Oil is an effective anti-inflammatory oil, making it an ideal choice for reducing pain and swelling. 

  • Black Pepper Essential Oil is another warming oil that can help to reduce inflammation and ease muscular pain. 

  • Lavender Essential Oil is a calming oil that can help to soothe tense muscles and relieve pain. 

  • Eucalyptus Essential Oil is a cooling oil that can help to reduce inflammation and ease pain.

In addition to these anti-inflammatory and analgesic essential oils, it is important to use a carrier oil to ensure that the essential oils are properly diluted to avoid any skin sensitization. Carrier oils also have their own therapeutic benefits which can enhance the anti-inflammatory and pain relief from the blend. Some great carrier oils to use include Jojoba Oil and Sweet Almond Oil. It is very important to stay within the proper dilution guidelines. To make sure you are properly diluting your essential oils, check out Essentria’s dilution guides here.
