Likewise, lavender has a history of soothing away headache pain.
Arthritis runs in the family. Based upon lavender's history as a headache remedy, I tested its ability to help relax stiff joints in the morning. It did, and it didn't take much.
I discovered arnica a few years later. I didn't like the gel-based products on the market, so I went straight to a manufacturer of arnica oil in the Rocky Mountains.
I thought about making an arnica based massage oil. However, oils are harder to carry. They're notorious for leaking out. So I developed an Arnica Lavender massage lotion instead.
Essential Oil-Enhanced Relief
I love the feel of this lotion. It absorbs quickly and slides on beneath my hands without friction. However, that's not all I like about it. With a little research, I found a combination of essential oils that folklore alleges are soothing properties to complement the arnica. I use these oils to scent the lotion.
Lavender EO was as effective as tramadol, a prescription medication, at reducing pain in one study. [Source]
Rose Geranium EO contains three components that studies show reduce inflammation (a primary cause of pain)—citronellol, geraniol, and citronellyl formate. [Source]
Grapefruit EO offers mild anti-microbial activity. [Source]
The FDA doesn't allow me to make any claims for this lotion. I can't tell you it will take away pain. However, test it for yourself. If your body responds to arnica and lavender, this lotion could take the edge off your discomfort.

The health benefits of lavender essential oil include its ability to eliminate nervous tension, relieve pain, disinfect the scalp and skin, enhance blood circulation and treat respiratory problems. The Latin name of lavender is Lavare, which means “to wash”, due to its particularly pleasant aroma.
Lavender oil is extracted mostly from the flowers of the lavender plant, primarily through steam distillation. The flowers of lavender are fragrant in nature and have been used for making potpourri for centuries. Traditionally, lavender essential oil has also been used in making perfumes. The oil is very useful in aromatherapy and many aromatic preparations and combinations are made using lavender oil.
Lavender oil blends well with many other essential oils including cedarwood, pine, clary sage, geranium, and nutmeg. Today, lavender essential oil is frequently used in various forms including aromatherapy oil, gels, infusion, lotion, and soaps.
Health Benefits Of Lavender Essential Oil
The various health benefits of lavender essential oil include the following:
Bug Repellent: The smell of lavender essential oil is potent for many types of bugs like mosquitoes, midges, and moths. Apply some of the lavender oil on the exposed skin when outside to prevent these irritating bites. Furthermore, if you do happen to be bitten by one of those bugs, the lavender essential oil has anti-inflammatory qualities that will reduce the irritation and the pain associated with bug bites.
Sleep: Lavender essential oil induces sleep which has made it a common recommendation for an alternative treatment of insomnia. Frequent studies on elderly patients have shown an increase in their sleep regularity when their normal sleep medication is replaced with some lavender essential oil being placed on their pillows. It has such a relaxing impact on people that it can often replace modern medicine for sleep issues.
Nervous system: Lavender essential oil has a calming scent which makes it an excellent tonic for the nerves and anxiety issues. Therefore, it can also be helpful in treating migraines, headaches, depression, nervous tension and emotional stress. The refreshing aroma removes nervous exhaustion and restlessness while also increasing mental activity. It has a well-researched impact on the autonomic nervous system, which is why it is frequently used as a treatment for insomnia and also as a way to regulate heart-rate variability. One study showed that people taking tests showed a significant decrease in mental stress and anxiety, as well as increased cognitive function when they inhaled lavender oil and rosemary oil before taking the exam!
ABOUT SOAP;
Have you ever noticed how dry your skin can feel after a shower with commercially prepared soap? Most over the counter soaps have a ph around 9 or 10, which is very high, and similar to bleach or household cleaners. This high ph can damage or neutralize the natural acid mantle on your skin and leave it unprotected from bacteria, infection, allergic reactions and dehydration.
Jaxsoaps are natural, gentle soaps, free of harsh additives and ph balanced naturally to keep the acid mantle intact and leave your skin soft and healthy, with the added benefits of essential oils.
All of Jaxsoaps cold process soaps are handcrafted in small batches, one recipe at a time, using only the finest natural ingredients.
Each recipe may include different combinations of the saponified oils of Coconut, Soy Olive, Palm Kernel, Palm, Castor, Sweet Almond and nuturing butters such as Shea, Mango and Cocoabutter. The soaps are fragranced using High quality essential oils and the finest fragrance oils. Essential oils are also considered and used for the specific healing or nurturing qualities believed to be inherent in them.
Glycerin is a natural byproduct of the saponification process and remains in all Jaxxsoaps. You will not find this to be true of many commercially prepared products. There are no petroleum products in anything Jaxsoaps that touched your skin!
Use Jaxsoaps and be comfortable in your own skin!
