Is oil good for muscle pain?
According to Ayurvedic principles, muscle pain is often caused by an imbalance in the body's doshas (energetic forces) or the accumulation of toxins. Applying oil to the affected area helps lubricate the muscles, tendons, and joints, reducing friction and promoting smooth movement. It helps to ease muscle stiffness and tension. Oil has the ability to penetrate the layers of the skin and reach deep tissues, providing nourishment and promoting healing. Certain Ayurvedic oils, like Mahanarayan blend as used in our Really Good Muscle and joints oil, contain a blend of herbs that are believed to have detoxifying properties. These oils help remove accumulated toxins from the muscles and joints, which can contribute to muscle pain. Massaging the affected area with oil helps improve lymphatic flow, relaxes the muscles, and stimulates the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers.
