Tendonitis is the inflammation of a tendon. Symptoms of tendonitis often include swelling, stiffness, pain and sometimes a burning sensation surrounding the tendon. This treatment works by helping to relieve the symptoms, and helping to treat the inflammation.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

1/4 Cup of Celtic Sea Salt
5 Drops of Cypress Oil
5 Drops of Eucalyptus Oil
5 Drops of Chamomile Oil

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, gently stir together the celtic sea salt with the cypress oil, eucalyptus oil and chamomile oil. Use either a wooden or plastic spoon or spatula, but avoid using any metal utensils if possible.
Step 2

Run a warm bath. Ideally, the water should be around 100 degrees but not much hotter than that. Water that is too hot will weaken the essential oils used in the treatment.
Step 3

Gently pour the salt mixture under the running water. Once the salt appears to have dissolved, settle in to the bath. Soak in the treatment for a total of around thirty minutes.
Step 4

I suggest using the treatment daily until the tendonitis has healed.
