This blend uses an ingredient known as arnica concrete. This is an extract of the tarry oils from the arnica plant (it is available from Leydet Aromatics). Al uses this blend on old or new bruises, strains, arthritis, congestion and myofascial thickening. Use it like you would an analgesic cream. Keep it out of your eyes and away from mucus membranes. This stuff will warm up where it belongs and will burn where it doesn’t.
Ingredients:
Al's Favorite Base Oil
Arnica Concrete (see above paragraph)
Rubbing alcohol, Everclear or Vodka
Ginger
Cayenne
Geranium
Ylang Ylang
Black Pepper
Directions:
1. Dilute the arnica concrete in equal parts alcohol. You can use rubbing alcohol, vodka or Everclear.
2. Add 10 drops diluted arnica concrete to Al’s Favorite Base Oil.
3. Add the following essential oils to the arnica concrete/base oil blend: 5 drops black pepper, 10 drops ginger, 10 drops cayenne, 10 drops geranium, 10 drops ylang ylang.
