Painful rheumatic disorders lead to a severe reduction in the quality of life of those who are affected. Local applications at the area of the strongest pain with essential oil blends help to promote the blood circulation and to relieve the pain.

The neutral Jojoba wax is taken as a carrier oil. An alternative would be a macerate from St. John's wort, the so-called red oil, in order to support the soothing effect of the essential oils once again. However, the red oil has, beside the healing, also a strongly coloring and photosensitizing characteristic and is not available at the company Biofrid.

Essential Clove oil and Thyme oil are particularly suitable for the treatment of movement pain, because both oils have ingredients that are particularly painkilling and anti-inflammatory. This is due not least to their antimicrobial components. This has been known about Clove oil for a long time, which justifies its use especially in dentistry. In Thyme oil, the monoterpenes and the ring-shaped alcohol Thujanol-4 are mainly responsible for the antiseptic effect. It is well known that the triggers of rheumatic pain can be bacteria - especially streptococci - which can therefore be countered in a particularly effective way with Thyme oil, due to these ingredients.

The essential Rosemary oil strongly stimulates blood circulation, which is usually desirable in rheumatic complaints, so that affected tissues are better supplied and inflammatory substances are removed. In patients with high blood pressure, however, the dosage should be lower.

In addition to their antimicrobial properties, the essential components of Lavender and Bergamot can also relieve the tensions and anxiety associated with restricted mobility. They also counteract the feeling of helplessness and hopelessness that sneaks up on the patient when he has to observe a worsening of his complaints for years.

Caution: Do not use on children (<8 y.) and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding!

Essential oils should never be applied undiluted, always mix it with a carrier oil (carrier substance).
If possible, test the patient for tolerance by having him smell the oil!
