Two or three garlic cloves
Olive oil, coconut oil, or another type of carrier oil
The first step in extracting the medicinal properties of garlic is to finely mince or crush the cloves. Next, combine the garlic with the carrier oil of your choice. When applied topically, this concoction creates a warming feeling that goes deep into the skin, alleviating pain and swelling.
Flexible and Powerful
Any number of problems can be alleviated with this garlic remedy:
Applying a little massage with the mixture to the legs will help alleviate varicose veins and promote circulation, which in turn can alleviate leg pain.
Apply to aching joints to ease pain and stiffness caused by rheumatism and arthritis.
When you apply a small amount to the temples or the nape of your neck, you may find that tension headaches subside.
If you suffer from persistent joint pain, try massaging your affected areas with garlic oil on a regular basis.
A Cautionary Note
If you have sensitive skin, in particular, it is imperative that you perform a patch test prior to administering this natural medicine topically, even though it might deliver considerable relief. Even if the garlic is diluted with the carrier oil, it's still wise to test it on a small area of skin to make sure it doesn't irritate it.
