Soothing Sore Muscle Soak

by Shelly

This bath is soothing and relaxing when your muscles are tired and sore. It’s also a good treament for people with arthritis.

1 tsp. dried juniper (Juniperus communis) berries
2 tbs. fresh or dried peppermint (Mentha xpiperita)
2 tbs. fresh or dried spearmint (Mentha spicata)
2 tbs. fesh or dried lavender (Lavendual augustifolia)

Place all ingredients in a muslin drawstring bag or disposable tea bag. Add the bag to your bathtub and fill the bathtub with hot water. Relax and soak for 20 -30 minutes.

There are so many different types of herbs and essential oils out on the market made by so many different companies and harvested by so many different companies. Make sure the brand you buy states that it is 100% oil and not combined with any additives. The great thing about most of these recipes is you can make them up in advance and have them on-hand when you need them the most. Just keep in mind there are no set iongredients, play with a few till you find ones that make you feel your best after using them.
