I've been using doTerra's line of EO for a while now and love it. I carry several oils on me all the time. I put lemon in my water, keep peppermint on me if I need to be in public (not as many problems with perfume induced migraines) and for minor aches and pains and sinus congestion. This week was the first time I got to try an oil I've had for a while, but I haven't had a reason to try it.
I was getting ready for the day and torqued my back pretty good while in the shower. I could barely get dried off and dressed. Knowing I had some Deep Blue with my other oils I reached for that first, thinking that if it didn't work I could always take the ibuprofen next. I didn't need the ibuprofen at all! I just rubbed in some of the oil, I think I used about 2-3 drops, and the relief was instantaneous. The relief lasted about 6 hours and then it was time to reapply.
When I did the same thing to myself about 18 months ago I ended up with a prescription for lortab, because the ibuprofen just wasn't cutting it and this time I didn't even need it. I think that alone speaks to the power of the essential oils in the Deep Blue.
What's in it, you ask? It contains a blend of wintergreen, camphor, peppermint, blue tansy, German chamomile, helichrysum and osmanthus. The smell reminds my a lot of Icy Hot or Ben Gay. I've used Icy Hot in the past but it doesn't hold a candle to what Deep Blue can do. I'm thoroughly impressed with this blend, and would recommend it to anyone with joint or muscle pain.
