Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which branches from your lower back through your hips and buttocks and down each leg. Typically, sciatica affects only one side of your body. The pain can vary widely, from a mild ache to a sharp, burning sensation or excruciating pain. Sometimes it can feel like a jolt or electric shock. It can be worse when you cough or sneeze, and prolonged sitting can aggravate symptoms.
The base for this Jelly is Trauma Oil. What is Trauma Oil? It is a blend of three organic flowers – Calendula, St. John’s Wort and Arnica – infused in organic carrier oil. I also add Comfrey, Yarrow and Borage for an additional boost! The oil that results from this infusion contains the wonderfully medicinal properties of the herbs. The result is a versatile product that can be used alone on the skin for healing or added to salves and balms. Using an infused carrier oil in addition to essential oils is a terrific way to double the therapeutic benefits.
What is MSM? MSM stands for Methylsulfonylmethane. It is a natural, organic compound of sulphur in its most biologically active form. MSM improves cell permeability, facilitating the uptake of nutrients and oxygen and elimination of toxins. The benefits of improving cell permeability are countless.
There are many benefits to using essential oils for pain relief and inflammation. For example, they also help to soothe your mind and make you feel more relaxed. Essential oils play an important role in pain management and in treating many inflammatory conditions.
If you suffer from sciatica, then essential oils are excellent home remedies to treat the pain. For example, spike lavender essential oil has both a calming effect on the mind and helps to relieve pain in inflamed joints.
