Osage Rub is an excellent commercial product for tired and
sore muscles and skin. It is very cooling and refreshing. It makes an
ideal after shave lotion. On a warm day, rub a small amount on the
face and neck as a cooling agent.
Peppermint Oil
Peppermint oil is excellent for headaches. It clears the sinus. It
cools and refreshes to enable free breathing. Place a small amount on
one hand (tip the bottle upside down with the palm tight against the
opening). Rub the two palms together and then inhale through the
nose and mouth for a short time. Later, place the palms on forehead
and back of the head. It is very cooling — especially helpful in case
of fevers. A small amount of peppermint on the finger and rubbed
inside the mouth makes the mouth feel refreshed and cool.
Wintergreen
The true oil of Wintergreen is superior to the synthetic, so use it
if possible. The synthetic will work, but not as well.
It relieves pain in warts and corns. It is an excellent product for sore
and painful muscles and joints. It is very warming — increases
circulation.
Witch Hazel
Witch Hazel is an excellent astringent and skin conditioner. It is
natural for an after shave application. It gives fast relief for sore and
irritated skin all over the body.
Vineqar
Pure Apple Cider Vinegar is a simple and safe, natural
antibiotic. It may be used on the outside or inside of the body. If
used on the outside, full strength is completely safe. If used on
the inside, it must be diluted.
