You can also quell pain with herbs in the form of essential oils absorbed through the skin. I found a very effective aromatherapy recipe and it works for headaches, body aches from exercise, as well as osteo arthritis; all of which I suffer from.
Here's the recipe and instructions:
The base oil should be grape seed, if your skin is normal to oily, almond if your skin is normal to dry.
2 tablespoons base oil
12 drops cypress essential oil
6 drops rosemary essential oil
10 drops cedarwood essential oil
6 drops peppermint essential oil
For additional potency, or to relieve the pain of a sprain or an aching bone on the mend, add 6 drops ginger essential oil.
Place ingredients in an amber glass bottle and gentle swirl together. Amber glass will effectively protect the analgesic oil from light and air. The mixture will remain effective for up to three months.
For those who wake up sore and achy, apply this analgesic oil to your sore spots before turning in at night. The inoffensive scent won't keep you awake nor repel your significant other, and you'll wake up the next morning pain-free!
(This analgesic oil can be rubbed on temples to relieve most headaches.)
