Muscle Rub
Muscle Rub is easy to make, use, and is all natural. It uses essential oils to support you muscles after a work out or strenuous work.
Last week my mom and I went to Denver to visit our friends Auntie M and Colorado BFF and their family.
We stayed up late, ate a lot, and talked a lot. We had a blast. This is the first visit I had made after getting my Young Living essential oils.
We had a great time smelling them all and me teaching them how to use them. Friday night I taught a class about oils and we made lotion bars, in-shower coconut oil lotion bars, muscle rub, and sleep cream.
Since I've already shared with you how to make the two kinds of lotion bars, I thought I'd share the rub and the cream with you.
For the Sleep Cream recipe, click this picture!
Both of these will fit nicely in baby food jars. If you don't have any of those, just store them in any glass jar.
Muscle Rub
¼ cup coconut oil
10 drops Peppermint
10 drops PanAway
10 dops Copaiba
5 drops Aroma Siez
5 drops Valor
Using a mixer blend all ingredients together until smooth. Place in a small jar and store in the refrigerator. This recipe doubled will fit in a baby food jar nicely.
To use: rub the Muscle Rub where ever your muscles need it.
A tip for storage: If you store this on its side in the refrigerator until it is solid, it is easier to get out.

well how fun is this? I have been seeing posts lately of people making their own products and this one looks great too
I am interested in learning more about essential oils. I have used a few and I was surprised how they have helped me.
I would love to share more information with you about essential oils. If you will email me at coffeewithus3.kerry@gmail.com, I would love to send you information.
I need to try this! I have the world's worst insomnia! It is terrible!
I think I might have to make some of this muscle rub. I carry a huge handbag and it has twisted my back up - like forever. I cant' get it back to my younger days. I am always in pain
OOh this sounds pefect for me! Especially the sleep cream as I struggle to go to sleep. I have a lot of pain so the rub would help for that.
indeed, so easy to make! I am sure I would also love one that is so natural
I love how essential oils make it easy to support our bodies.
As a runner, I can't wait to give this a try! Thank you! I love anything with coconut oil. Do you still teach classes? I recently led a group of gals in making sugar scrub and bath melts!
I do still teach classes. I have been teaching them in Denver and in Southeast Idaho. But I can also teach them via skype, facetime, etc.
I love coconut oil. I could use both the muscle rub and the sleep cream right now.
I think we all need support in keeping our bodies healthy. It's so nice that we can use natural products to do that.
I am totally making the sleep cream. The older you get, the harder it is to sleep.
This is so true. I wish I could still sleep like I did when I was 16.
Oh I love homemade body products. I make a lotion bar that seems to be essential for me in the winter. A muscle rub would be wonderful!
I love lotion bars for the winter time. You should also check out my In Shower Coconut Oil Lotion Bars. They help my skin through the winter.
My hubby would like the muscle rub, but I would love to try that sleep cream. It sounds like JUST what I need.
My husband and I are the opposite. I rub his feet with oils every night to help with sleep. I on the other hand need support of my muscles in my back.
