21 Recipes For Treating Your Pain At Home Naturally

September 19, by Shellie Wilson. 1 Comment

So pain is something I live with every day. I have spent my whole adult and teen years suffering from Fibromyalgia and CFS so aches and pains are a daily struggle for me. I know I am not the only one out there and even if your pain isn’t chronic these recipes are sure to help you. I highly recommend adding CBD  oil into your regime too.

The 100% key to making these recipes successfully, is making them ahead of time for when the pain hits you. Sometimes you don’t need a cure-all, just something to take the edge off the pain or something to back up your regular pain medications. I have tried to include pain relief recipes for most parts of the body, but the key to choosing the right pain relief recipe is working out what your pain is from: Stress? Muscle Strain? Other? Headaches for example are most commonly caused by tension so choosing a calming oil will work well to relieve a headache naturally for these types of headaches.

Personally, I get a lot of headaches from a muscle strain in my neck and for those, I like an anti-inflammatory and warming oil.

If you love Tiger balm check out this DIY recipe for making your own tiger balm-style healing oil.

Tiger Balm style healing oil recipe

4 tsp shea butter
3 tbs of vegetable oil
2 tbs of Jojoba oil
1 tbs Camphor gum is anti-bacterial and found in Vicks Vaporub.

1 tsp Beeswax pellets

If you get caught short you can add these oils to Vicks for a quick DIY recipe and omit the ingredients above.
15 ml Peppermint oil
15 ml Eucalyptus oil
10 ml of Lavender oil

Is Headache your issue? Check out these tips on treating headaches.

Headaches can certainly ruin one’s day. However, there are ways in which you can ease the, at times, before they turn into full migraines. Try these tips as soon as you feel a headache forming.

Take over the counter medication

Medications like Tylenol and Motrin can ease many headaches. Follow the direction on the package. If you can take these with a small cup of coffee, they can even work faster. However, be warned that Tylenol does have caffeine in it. If you have problems with caffeine you may want to stick with Motrin. Yet, neither should be taken on a regular basis.

A warm compress

Place a warm compress over your eyes. The warmth may ease not only your pain but help to open your sinus cavities, which may be producing some of your pain in the first place.

Lie down

If you can, lie down in a dark room. If you can only lie down for ten minutes, this action of lying still with your eyes close can sometimes ease your pain. It gives your body time to relax and sometimes this is all we need to calm down those nerves that are starting to react and starting to produce the pain in your head.

Drink warm tea

Warm teas such as green tea and chamomile tea can warm up your body, ease your pain and help to relax your entire body. That is why they are always a good cure when you are sick or when you are beginning to experience head pain.

Gently massage your temples, forehead, and neck

If you can or someone else can gently massage your temple area, your forehead, and your neck area, you may be able to loosen up some of the tension that is building in those regions. This may help reduce your pain.

Eating something spicy

If you believe your headache may be due to your sinuses becoming plugged, you may want to try eating something spicy to help open them. However, if you feel any stomach discomfort you may want to skip this tip.

Try to meditate or practice a yoga pose

Meditation and yoga are two great ways to calm your body and find your own state of relaxation. Sometimes all you need to stop a headache is to get your body in a relaxed state.

Take a brisk walk

Exercise stimulates our blood. This can help pump oxygen to our head. This is one reason why exercise can benefit an ongoing headache. If you exercise outside, the fresh air may also be beneficial.

If you continue to have headaches on a regular basis, seek advice from your physician on how to stop them permanently and find out the root of their cause.
