No more sore muscles! Sometimes when I am work hard on our homestead, I end up with sore muscles at the end of the day. Just two weeks ago I ran into this homemade warming muscle rub, that I sincerely believe was heaven sent. Oh and whilst you are here you may also want to try this homemade sore muscle rub recipe, this homemade diy vitamin C recipe and this homemade fire cider recipe.
Feel free to go hunting for more homemade warming muscle rubs on the internet, but I am almost sure that you will return to this one. For one, it is made from 100% all natural ingredients and essential oils. Also unlike the ones available in pharmacies, this one actually does not have a bad smell. When combined these essential oils have anti inflammatory, improved blood circulation, muscle relaxant, analgesic and warming properties.

Here’s What You’ll Need:
- olive oil
- coconut oil
- beeswax
- peppermint essential oils
- eucalyptus essential oils
- clove essential oils
- ginger essential oils
- ground ginger (optional)
- black pepper (optional)
- small pot
- pyrex measuring cups
- funnel
- coffee filter
- small airtight container
Which ingredients you add to the Pyrex cup first totally depends on whether you are using essential oils only or substituting some of them with spices. Whilst you wait for the beeswax to melt in your ‘double boiler’ you can then prep your filtering apparatus.
After the oil mixture is strained, you can add all your essential oils and then pour the mixture into a small storage container. Allow to set for 3 to 4 hours at room temperature and rub a little on sore muscles as needed.
