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.


While making coffee one day, I had a sudden onset of arthritis pain in my hand between my thumb and index finger. Because I only had time to quickly apply something while in the middle of kitchen activities, I had to think fast for something to use in a pinch.

I remembered hearing Copaiba being good for pain. I applied a drop directly to the area of pain and before the coffee was finished brewing, I had felt complete relief.

A bit of trivia about the oil is that Copaiba oil is known to have some of the highest levels of beta-caryophyllene in the world. What is Beta-Caryophyllene?

Beta-caryophyllene has been extensively studied for its ability to modulate the body's response to irritation, soothing and relaxing, which why the oil is great for many types of applications.

For an idea to quickly get the oil applied in the future, an AromaGlide roller fitment attached to the bottle will make it more convenient to grab and apply.

Supporting Scientific Studies
1.Associated topics: joints,arthritis — "Ruxiang (Gummi olibanum), the dried gum resin of Boswellia carterii (BC) [frankincense], has been used in traditional Chinese medicine to alleviate pain and inflammation for thousands of years.... The data show that BC extract has significant anti-arthritic and anti-inflammation effects and suggest that these effects may be mediated via the suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokines."Link
2.Associated topics: joints,arthritis — "We have demonstrated that Boswellia frereana [frankincense] prevents collagen degradation, and inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory mediators and MMPs. Due to its efficacy we propose that B. frereana should be examined further as a potential therapeutic agent for treating inflammatory symptoms associated with arthritis."Link
3.Associated topics: joints — "Herbalists treat skin ailments, such as fungal infections (like candidiasis), wounds, eczema, and acne, with lavender oil. It is also used in a healing bath for joint and muscle pain. One study evaluating treatments for children with eczema found [that] it was therapeutic touch from the mother that improved symptoms; in other words, massage with and without essential oils (including lavender) both reduced the dry, scaly skin lesions. Another study found that lavender oil may improve pain control after surgery."Link
