5. Essential Oils
There are many health benefits associated with the use of essential oils, and if you are using any of the methods on this list to control myofascial pain syndrome, then the use of essential oils could be a good way to supplement what you are already doing.
There are many essential oils that can potentially be beneficial in controlling the associated pain and discomfort that’s generally associated with the condition, including lavender. This is because of the fact that these essential oils are often employed in massage (and bath therapy) to relax the muscles – and if you suffer from a condition like myofascial pain syndrome, it can be greatly helpful to you.
Always remember to test an essential oil on a small part of the skin first in order to establish whether or not you could be allergic, and take caution with existing health conditions and certain essential oils – always check first.
