Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


My son pinched his radial nerve which runs from the back of the neck, through the shoulder and elbow down to the hand. He has been getting chiropractic treatment to release the pinch, but it is being stubborn. His sleep has been disrupted because of pain and numbness through the shoulder and arm.

I put together a mixture of 3 oz V-6 oil, 10 drops Clove oil, 10 drops Lavender oil, 6 drops Roman Chamomile, 20 drops Juniper, 6 drops Black Pepper oil, and 10 drops Lemon oil. In less than 10 minutes after applying to his shoulder and elbow, my son was amazed at how much relief he got and was able to sleep through the night.
