Amazing!
I've had chronic neck pain for the past 3 years and have tried everything. Anti-inflammatory drugs and steroids help a bit but not fully. And when my neck is in serious pain, theres an area where it swells like the size of a big marble. I heard of essential oils and their uses. So I did some research and decided to buy Frankincense and Lavender essential oils. I just wantd to try something different and hoped for the best. I thought - it cant hurt, especially after taking ibuprophen,etc for so long now! When i received it, I diluted 2 drops along with 2 drops of lavender in 40 drops of almond oil, and at bed time i applied to inflamed & painful neck area. The next morning I woke up and realized my pain was gone, and when I touched my neck I could not believe that the swollen marble was gone! I mean gone, flat, not a hint of it! I thought that it was going to reduced slowly as I would apply it everyday. But it happened overnight. I was truly amazed! I've also used it for cold symptoms. And now I keep my medicine cabinet stocked with Frankincense oil.
