Info on Fibromyalgia

[Guest guest]

Dear Chris,

Did anyone ever post the information on Fibromyalgia? If so, then I

missed it. I am preparing a short lecture and special class on Fibro and

aromatherapy so if anyone has any information or good links I would

appreciate it if you would post them.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi Rhavda,

 

Here's a little info for you. Hope it's not too late.

 

Also, in my research for Osteo, I found that Ginger is good for sore

and achy joints. In Fibro as I'm sure you know, you have that " achy

all over " feeling.

 

Ginger EO is good, or actually slicing fresh ginger and adding it to

the bath. Drinking a cup of tea with fresh ginger slices is said to

be helpful too as are anti-inflamatory herbs.

 

Hope this helps,

Michelle

Essential Oils for Fibromyalgia

 

Soothing aromatherapy baths and massages can help to ease muscle and

joint pain.

 

Choose one or more of the following essential oils to add to bath

water or massage oil: basil, black pepper, elemi, eucalyptus, myrrh,

peppermint, and pine.

 

Add juniper oil or rosemary oil to bath water. Take a half-hour bath,

then rest in bed for an hour to ease pain and calm the system.

 

Rub tea tree oil everywhere it hurts at least once daily; muscle pain

takes about six weeks to disappear.

 

Massage painful areas with juniper oil.

 

Many essential oils help to reduce stress, a major contributor of

fibromyalgia.

 

Useful oils are: elemi, frankincense, geranium, jasmine, lavender,

myrrh, and neroli.
