This sounds great! I was in a serious car accident when I was 16 and to this day my back acts up every now and then. I've been wanting to get into essential oils and this seems like the perfect gateway. Thanks for sharing!

I also use a mixture of frankinscence oil, sweet Marjoram oil and lemon grass oil mixed with sweet almond oil as my carrier, which is slippery. It’s called the “morphine bomb,” i use it topically only. You can use coconut oil to get a more solid, lotion type of mixture. If works well for pain relief. I found it on Pinterest somewhere. I have horrible back problems and have gotten relief with this mixture. Good luck!

Once mixed should I keep this in the fridge ? It seems liquidy and not creamy.

Is this organic refined coconut oil
