How do I use panaway essential oil for pain?
To use panaway essential oil for pain, dilute it with a carrier oil and rub it into the spot that hurts.
This was the first oil I used in my kit and it is one of my favorite oils to this day. I first used it to help sooth the tension in my butt cheek from my sciatic nerve acting up. It was so tight that I couldn't stretch it out until a few minutes after applying the oil. That night a slept like a baby and by morning my sciatic nerve wasn't bothering me.
I love the cooling sensation on my skin when I use this blend and love using it as a massage oil. Everything about this oil says relax, unwind, and feel good. If you get a chance you've got to try it.
