Pure Oil Essential.
Specific Applications for Shoulders pains

Shoulders pains: Specific applications

Shoulders pains: considerations

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the human body. The joint includes four tendons. The purpose of a tendon is to hold muscle to bone. Together, these four "rotator cuff" tendons stabilize the upper arm bone to the shoulder socket and allow a wide range of motion in the shoulder.Any swelling, inflammation, tearing, or bony changes around these tendons causes pain when a person tries to move the arm above the head, behind the back, or straight out in front.

When I’ve forced muscles to do something ridiculous (and I have a bad souvenir from snowboard and funboard) do muscles make their presence known, often in the form of muscle cramps, which are painful, spasmodic muscular contractions. Cramps often mean you’ve spent too long in an unnatural position: sitting in a cramped car for several hours or sleeping in a position fit for a circus contortionist.

Like me most people suffer from occasional stiff necks, aching shoulders and headaches, so the shoulders are the perfect place to begin self-massage with pure oil essential.

The purest essential oils are blended to alleviate stress, uplift the spirits, encourage positive thinking and boost the immune system. Applied by a restorative massage to help with muscular pains and tension. I use a particularly good blend to help lymphatic drainage (the build up of toxins that can cause pain and discomfort) These oils warm up the muscles and help to keep them pain free for the rest of the day.Great for preventing and treating back, neck and shoulders pains and stress related symptoms.

Shoulders pains: Benefits of Massage and self-massage

Massage helps to release tense muscles, improve circulation and stimulate lymphatic drainage. It also speeds up the elimination of waste products from the body and assists in the breakdown of fat. It has a beneficial effect on the nervous system, encouraging relaxation and creating a general sense of calm and wellabeing.

1. Stroke your right shoulder with your left hand. Mold your hand to the curves of your body. Starting at the base of your skull, stroke down the side of your neck, over your shoulder and down your arm to the elbow. Glide back to your neck and repeat at least three times. Then do the other side.

2. Make circular pressures with your fingertips on either side of the spine. Work up the neck and around the base of the skull. Then knead each shoulder; squeeze and release the flesh on your shoulders and at the top of your arms.

3. Loosely clench your left hand into a fist and gently pound your right shoulder. Keep your wrist flexible. This springy movement improves the circulation and can be very invigorating if you are tired. Repeat on the other side.

4. Finish by stroking softly and smoothly both hands. Start with your hands on the side of your face and glide them gently down under your chin. Slide your hands past each other at the front of the neck, so that each hand is on the opposite shoulder. Stroke gently over your shoulders, down your arms and off at the fingertips. Repeat as often as you like. This hypnotic stroke is so relaxing and can relieve headaches and tension.

Shoulders pains: Essential Oils can help you

The use of essential oils with massage enhances treatments further. Essential oils are the concentrated essence of plants and have been used for their medicinal benefits for hundreds of years. Different essential oils may be added to the massage oil to promote relaxation, detoxification, healthy digestion, etc.

Personally, I like to add Dragon Oil or specific essential oils.
