Frankincense and Myrrh for Neuropathy pain

Posted by hotfooted @hotfooted, Apr 26, 2019

Today I saw the Nutritionist that my doctor sent me to.. As usual, my feet were red and burning. She told me that many Diabetics that she counseled used Frankincense and Myrrh drops mixed with a lotion and they swore by it.. wouldn't be without it. She had some and we tried it on my poor feet right then.. It was absolutely amazing! My feet cooled down immediately and they became their normal white skin again. That was this morning and they are still okay at 5:30 in the evening.. My gosh, maybe I'll be able to sleep better tonight... Have any of you tried this? If so, what has been your experience with it? I'm hoping to hear lots of comments back...

I purchased the Frankincense & Myrrh foot cream. Tried that and the oil (same brand). I think I've given it a good try for my feet. Unfortunately, I realized that within a few hours of using it I felt shaky and nauseous. This happened more than once.

I've decided not to use it any more. Maybe some of the homeopathic ingredients caused my bad reaction. I don't know. Never had this reaction before. Going to purchase a small bottle of pure frankincense to mix with my CBD balm and give that a try.

The instructions for the oil said 10 to 30 drops, and I went for the lowest amount.

Wow! Usually you use about 1 or 2 drops per 8 ounces of base!

Sounds like that's for frankincense oil. This was the brand Frankincense & Myrrh Neuropathy oil, which is already mixed with a base. That's what this thread is about.

I hadn’t heard about this. I do use CBD, electrical stimulating acupuncture, do yoga and walk most days. Good luck

What brand and where to buy it? I tried Tegretol and it interacted with my other meds and I was very bad for several days.

Post chemo and radiation, developed serious neuropathy at night. Used Frankincense and Myrrh, few drops on skin. It WORKS! Must use daily or nightly when neuropathy occurs.

Thank you for your reply.. I will order some as soon as I get back.. I just love Prime !!!
I was so desperate I went to foot solutions yesterday.. I purchase a pair of Finns for 255.00 just so I would have something for the trip .. I would never have done this, but nothing was working.. I have purchased no less that 10 pairs from amazon and had to sent them back.. I have a pair coming today that I will have to mail back tomorrow with 2 other pairs I have here. Im' going to get my feet the special orthotics when we get back and pray they help some..IThis foot with planters facistis is killing me, I have had to shots in my heel and they don't seem to help. I do everything on the internet that is suppose to help. I walk with a bad limp because my nerves are partially dead from my spine.. I have only had this awful burning for 3-4 months.. I think I may have had a little in the past,, like don't like cover touching my feet, but never thought that much about it. What is causing yours?? I don't even know for sure what I have . The neuro dr. mentioned sfn.. What meds do you take?? I'm 72 and we had plans to travel, but I have to get better..

Hi @peggyn, I feel your pain. I had the same thing and after going to PT, and couple of injections, I believe what really helped me beside the orthotics was having MLS Laser therapy. You have to have at least 6 treatments and it is not covered by insurance. Not every Podiatrist offers it, some therapy places also offer it. I first had it done at the therapy place where I was going, then I switched podiatrist and that doc offered it in her office. Now, I just make sure I wear my orthotics always, that means less time with flip flops...UGHHHHH.
Good luck, hope you feel better.....Blessings
