DIY Muscle Rub

DIY Muscle Rub
I am sharing my muscle rub recipe with you all this evening, this is my baby. My pride and joy. An absolute necessary staple for my personal medicine cabinet. 
I have a very bad knee, which causes me to walk with a limp or catch in my stride. In turn every muscle in my body aches everyday. I could go to the doctor's and get pain meds and shots, but I choose not to. That is right I choose not to............. I have started my journey to eliminate as many chemicals as possible from not only my families bodies and lives, but my own as well. Without further due................

Ingredients
5 Tablespoons of Coconut Oil ( I prefer Tropical Traditions Gold Label) You can do your own research and decide which coconut oil you like the best.
10 drops of Eucalyptus Essential Oil ( I prefer Plant Therapy Essential Oils) You can do your own research to find out which oils you prefer to use. 
Mix well and store in a glass container in a cool place to avoid liquification.
* Note, I also make another batch of this with Lavendar Essential Oil, which is what you see in the picture. Both are effective. I choose Eucalyptus alot because it is known for it's anti-inflammatory properties. 
I apply this two to three times a day, depends on my pain level. 

I am not a doctor, always consult your physician before trying anything new.
