The Little Green Bottle of Relief

When packing to move sometimes you lose things. I recently found my favorite massage oil that I thought I had lost. It's a product that was made for Bath & Body Works that is called, MUSCLE SOOTHING MASSAGE OIL. It's a combination of essential oils: Apricot Kernel, Bergamot, Geranium, Tarragon, Lime, Peppermint, Patchouli, and Rosemary. I have a massage therapist that uses it when I have back spasms. It really helps in getting long lasting relief. The green glass bottle is small, only about 4 ounces, and has only a few drops left. It's too bad though, it's no longer available from Bath & Body Works, so I can't replace it. I suppose I might find a dealer of essential oils to mix up a close match someday.

Susan's Reply - Greg, this oil sounds awesome! It is too bad that you can't purchase it anymore.

What you could do is make oil of your own. You could purchase the oils (or start with 2 or 3 and build up your stock) from Mountain Rose Herbs that you will find on this site or another reputable dealer. Add the drops according to the chart How Many Drops to about one ounce or 2 tablespoonsful of a carrier oil such as sweet almond oil. Good luck!
