Essential Oils for Pain? Allowed?
Not in the US - Unless FDA Approved Product

Essential Oils for pain is a question I receive a lot. Essential Oils may be able to provide relief for minor muscle and joint aches and help you recover from workouts, but products actually must be FDA approved for pain in the United States. Otherwise, it is a drug claim.

Essential Oils for Pain? NO! But OTC Pain Relieving Product made with EOs? YES!

What Products do I use for Minor Aches and Discomfort?

The product I use to address temporary conditions and IS approved by the FDA for the uses listed below is:

• Cool Azul Essential Oil Pain Relieve Cream

Certain ingredients when approved by the FDA such as Menthol which is naturally found in Peppermint or Methyl salicylate (naturally found in Wintergreen) have been shown to temporarily relieve minor aches and pains of muscles and joints associated with ACUTE conditions.

However, recognize that the product still must go through FDA approval to CLAIM those actions. These are called Over the Counter (OTC) Drugs. Young Living now has over five FDA OTC products!

What Will Cool Azul Pain Relieve Cream Support?

Cool Azul will temporarily relieves minor aches and pains of muscles and joints associated with:

• Arthritis
• Bruising
• Strains
• Sprains
• Simple Back Ache

Please see the Cool Azul page for safety information and directions.

What Products Will Blend Nicely with or Complement Cool Azul Pain Relief Cream?

These are the best professionally made blends and massage oils that may complement this product. Especially when combined with professional massage.

• PanAway Essential Oil Blend
• Cool Azul Essential Oil and Gel
  
• Ortho Ease Massage Oil

• Ortho Sport Massage Oil

• Deep Relief Essential Oil Blend
  
• Relieve It Essential Oil Blend

I like to use Cool Azul with Young Living's OTC Insect Repellent before my run-blend perfectly together.
