Foot and Ankle Pain Relief Recipe- Herbal Salt Soak

All natural foot soak to relax sore muscle or tension / nerve pain / in the feet and ankles. This is a heavy duty recipe for things like circulation issues, severe pain, arthritis etc.

What you'll need:

• Cayenne oil (or infuse your own)


• Clove oil


• Epsom salts 


• Container for storage (airtight)

Cayenne is known to numb nerve and tension pains, as well as clove. Epsom salts will help pull out toxins and impurities. ~ This easy mixtures packs a punch of herbal healing! A word of caution though, with this recipe, a little goes a long way so please use sparingly.

You could also switch out the Epsom salts for Sea Salt, Dead Sea Salt, or Himalayan Pink Salt.

STEP 1: Pour your desired oils in the bottom of the container. I used my own mix of cayenne oil, about 10 drops of clove oil as well as a few drops of tea tree oil. A tsp full is plenty for a container this size. Cayenne is very strong.

STEP 2: Fill the container the rest of the way with Epsom salts. (with enough room left in the jar to shake the mixture together)

STEP 3: Shake, Shake, SHAKE!! ^_^ Until the salts are now a uniform colour and consistency.

So little steps, for SUCH a powerful foot soak!!

CAUTIONS & DIRECTIONS FOR USE: A little goes a long way with cayenne SO start small. Try adding 1 teaspoon of salts to your foot soaking bucket of hot water. Everyone has different levels of skin sensitivity. If it burns, rinse well with cool water immediately.

Be cautious of skin irritation, everyone reacts differently to everything.  

Be sure to wash hands after coming in contact with the spicy mixture. & you may even want to wash your feet after, especially if you have pets who like to lick your toes. You don't want them to burn their tongues. <3

Clove Tooth Pain Relief ~ Earthy Orajel.

Earthy Orajel.  For tooth pain, gum pain, teething babies, & loose teeth.

I know all about how disturbing tooth pain can be, so I decided to list something that I've used for ages.

Clove is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, reduces swelling & numbs pain.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED: 

• Coconut Oil - which is also anti-fungal, anti-bacterial (or your choice of carrier oil) You could also use Fractionated Coconut oil if you'd like to keep this as a liquid oil (easier to apply)


• Clove Oil (Clove Bud oil)  Analgesic, antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, antiseptic, antiviral,  This oil is usually associated with dental preparations due to its analgesic properties. Clove also has a long history in Chinese medicine. - Mountain Rose Herbs

Depending on batch size you're making will depend on how much of each you will need. Choose your container, or containers you will store it in, and go from there.

Typically you will need 5 or so drops of clove oil to about 4 teaspoons of coconut oil. (or your choice of carrier oil) (also dependent on how concentrated your oil is.) I like to use Mountain Rose Herbs or dōTERRA's clove bud oil. Very little is needed to get the job done.

• Use a double boiler (A mason jar works well for this, fill a pan half way with water and place the mason jar into the water - don't let the water get into the jar) (I use a melting pot instead)


• Turn the heat medium / low.


• Put your coconut oil into the jar & allow for it to melt thoroughly. Stirring occasionally.


• Remove from heat and add clove oils

Test the mixture to make sure its not too strong. *Always test on yourself before using on children or babies & dilute further with more carrier oil.  

Store in airtight container. 

To use: easiest to apply precisely with a q-tip. dip into oil and apply directly to painful gums / teeth. Try to only put it in needed place as it is very
numbing.

Remember, coconut oil is solid at room temperature,  you can either use it as it is or warm it up a bit by running warm water on the container.

You can also further dilute the mixture and use it as a toothpaste for sensitive gums. You could also mix it into our Fluoride Free Toothpaste.

Or, if you don't feel like making this, you can purchase it from my shop HERE
There are 2 versions listed, one for adults, one for children.

HAPPY HEALING!
