Posted by msterilinn on Dec 8, 2006

Almost everyone occasionally suffers from a minor unpleasant headache caused by stress, sleeplessness, diet, tension, or exposure to irritants like synthetic perfumes. Refreshing or soothing essential oils may help induce a warm and pleasant atmosphere and assist in relaxing and rejuvenating your mind and body.

1 drop ylang ylang
2 drops petitgrain
Add 2 drops lavender, 1 drop ylang ylang and 2 drops petitgrain to 5 teaspoons of massage oil base (or any plain base/carrier oil) to the massage base. Stir gently to mix and massage into body.

Other Essential Oils for Relaxation: Bergamot, roman chamomile, jasmine, marjoram, neroli and rose.
