Glory Edward  Sciatica Nerve Relief Oil is a soothing blend of herbal extracts and essential oils developed to ease nerve pain and numbness, swelling and tingling sensations. Although it can help bring relief to any kind of nerve pain, it has been formulated with particular attention to alleviating sciatica (pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which branches from your lower back through your hips and buttocks and down each leg). It combines anti-inflammatory, pain-killing, antispasmodic, circulation-boosting and healing botanicals to bring comfort and relief when you need it most.

Sciatica can be an incredibly painful and debilitating condition characterised by intense pain running from the lower back down through the buttocks and along the back of each leg. This massage oil has been specially designed to help reduce inflammation of nerve fibres and muscles.

Degenerated intervertebral discs – wear and tear can create painful inflammation and compress nerves.

Disc hernia – a damaged or ‘slipped’ disc can create severe pain and nerve compression.

Sacroiliac Joint dysfunction – hyper or restricted mobility in the spine-sacrum joint can compress nerves and cause inflammation.

Slipped vertebra – from trauma, or more commonly from accumulative stress to lower vertebral bridging bones. Often without symptoms but can compress nerves.

Osteoarthritis – friction from worn facet joints can cause bone spurs, inflammation and nerve pressure.

Sciatica – a term often used loosely in self-diagnosis. Sciatica refers to any pain created by impingement on the sciatic nerve 

This massage oil is made with an exact blend of oils reputed to help reduce painful spasms associated with sciatica, assist restful sleep, lubricate local muscles and fibres aiding restoration, increase pain free mobility and reduce the inflammation in and around the spinal column. It has also been reported to assist blood flow when used on areas prone to pins and needles or general circulation problems.

The building blocks of the oils radically decrease the inflammation around your back, specifically acting on the muscles surrounding the spinal cord. This combination may help remove the build up of toxins, reducing painful inflammation and resulting in amazing relief. Our natural sciatica treatment has produced fantastic results when dealing with painful sciatica.

Ingredients

 Calendula oil
Calendula is a gentle but powerful healer. It is included in our nerve oil because it has anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties which help to soothe inflamed skin and ease any swelling associated with injury or nerve pain.

St John’s wort oil
St John’s wort is a key herb in our nerve oil because it has the ability to bring relief to pain associated with nerve trauma and damage. It also soothes cuts and bruises, and helps with joint and muscle pain.

Comfrey oil
Comfrey oil helps to speed up the healing process for sore muscles, bone fractures, sprains, and ligament tears, all of which can contribute to nerve damage and pain. It also provides relief from inflammation associated with arthritis and joint inflammation.

Frankincense essential oil
Frankincense improves the flow of blood and nutrients to the joints and prevents the breakdown of tissue around the joints. It is one of the most potent anti-inflammatories in herbal medicine, and it is effective for alleviating both muscle and nerve pain.

Sandalwood essential oil
The rich and sweet fragrance of sandalwood essential oil helps to reduce stress and strain. It is another potent anti-inflammatory, and alleviates pain, muscle spasms and tension. Sandalwood’s antioxidant properties also offer protection from environmental stressors.

Wintergreen essential oil
Our nerve oil contains wintergreen essential oil due to its pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties. Wintergreen is particularly useful to soothe pain and inflammation in nerve pathways, such as in the sciatic nerve, which runs from your hips to your feet (sciatica).

Lavender essential oil
Lavender essential oil is excellent for easing pain, tension and muscle spasms, as well as soothing stress-related symptoms such as headaches, indigestion and irritability. Thanks to its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, lavender also protects and soothes the skin, and supports its natural healing process. It uplifts the mood and disperses fatigue. Its uplifting and soothing scent helps create a sense of calm and relaxation.

Capsicum oil
Capsicum oil is a powerful circulation stimulant and topical painkiller. It is deeply warming and helps ease pain when applied locally, and it helps block pain messages to your nerves.

Vitamin E
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin with potent antioxidant properties, which naturally helps preserve the oil for longer — in addition to its natural nourishing and cleansing properties.

What is Sciatica?

The word “sciatica” refers to the pain that runs along the area where the sciatic nerve lies. Sciatica is not a clinical diagnosis, but a medical term that pertains to the set of signs and symptoms that involves the sciatic nerve. This condition commonly occurs following a compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve.

Many triggers can cause sciatica to flare up, all of which involve impingement of the nerve. The most common ones include injury or damage to the vertebra (herniated disc or bulge), stress or emotional anxiety, poor posture, wearing tight-fit clothing or footwear, sitting for long periods with hard objects in the back pocket, excessive weight, poor body mechanics, pregnancy, and depression.

What are the Various Treatment Options for Sciatica Pain

Treatment and preventative options for sciatica start with adequate self-care and non-pharmacological or non-invasive methods. The goal of sciatica symptoms treatment is to prevent flare-ups, improve function, correct the cause of the problem, and prevent further injury.

How to Use Essential Oils for Sciatic Nerve Pain?

You can use essential oils for aromatherapy or massage therapy. Some people benefit from a combination of these two. When using essential oil recipes, be sure not to exceed the number of drops or the total amount of essential oils. Pure essential oils are potent, and some carrier oils already include essential oils that are included in the recipe. 

Massage Therapy

Keep in mind that essential oils are meant for external use only. So, do not swallow, apply to wounds and irritated or damaged skin areas. When applying, lightly rub the affected area and only reapply after a few hours.

Topical application allows the active ingredients of essential oils to seep deep into the area where they work and use their healing effects. To safely use essential oils, do not exceed twenty drops of essential oils in a single mixture in an ounce of carrier oil.

Cold or Warm Compress Therapy

Another option to use essentials oils for sciatica nerve pain is by utilizing cold or warm compress.

The cold or warm effects of this therapy minimize the risk of irritation to the essential oils.

If you do not know if you have sensitivity against essential oils, this can mitigate the effects of skin irritation.

You can use a warm compress using a warm or cold towel soaked with essential oil blends. 

The safest method to utilize essential oils is aromatherapy. By using a diffuser or steamer, you can take advantage of the medical benefits they offer.

The respiratory system will receive and process the ingredients in the essential oils and deliver them to different areas in the body, including the sciatic area. When using aromatherapy, read the label on each bottle of essential oils and follow the instructions about the maximum drops or saturation allowed for each oil.

This treatment approach is the go-to option for those who have sensitive skin and those who do not like putting oils on the surface of the skin.
