Best Essential Oils To Help You With Skin Irritation/Cuts/Bruises/Burns

We all get bumps and bruises. While bruises are ugly and uncomfortable, they are a natural result of when the tissues take a direct blow to the area. This could be caused by a significant force being applied, such as banging your shin into a table, falling down and scraping your knee, or excessive exercise, which can cause tiny tears in the blood vessels beneath the skin. As we age, it is said that our skin becomes “weaker”, which is partially true. It does become thinner, which provides less padding for the blood vessels, making bruising more common. Thankfully there are some essential oils for bruising that can help this healing process along.

It is best to ice the area that took the blow first if able. It will help with the pain and swelling that occurs in the area of trauma. Then you can follow up with essential oils before the bruise even appears.

The application of essential oils for bruises is an excellent way to speed the healing process, reduce pain and inflammation, and improve the appearance of these temporary injuries. Bruises are some of the most common injuries that can happen to the skin and are caused when the blood vessels in a certain area are ruptured, allowing blood cells to pool beneath a certain area of skin.
