Are you looking for a natural way to help speed up the healing of bruises? Essential oils are an excellent option. Not only does research show they have anti-inflammatory properties that can reduce swelling and bruising, but they can also help to improve the appearance of your skin. In this article, we’ll be discussing the five best essential oils for bruises as well as how to use them safely and effectively. 


How Essential Oils Help Bruises

Essential oils have long been used in folk medicine to help reduce the discomfort and appearance of bruises. The anti-inflammatory properties of essential oils make them an ideal choice for those looking for natural solutions to reducing swelling and inflammation associated with bruising. Research shows that certain essential oils can be used as a topical treatment to speed up the healing process, while others may help to relieve sensitivity associated with bruises. Essential oils can also help to reduce the appearance of bruises over time.

It’s important to note however that essential oils can interact with certain medications, so consult your doctor before using them for pain relief or any other medical issue. Additionally, some people may be allergic or sensitive to certain types of essential oils so be sure to do a patch test before using them on your skin before applying it to a larger area.

5 Top Essential Oils for Bruises

There are many essential oils that can be used to reduce swelling and discoloration caused by bruises. Here are five of the best essential oils for bruises, along with tips on how to use them safely and effectively.

Essential Oils for Bruises

1) Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender essential oil is well known in the industry for its calming and anti-inflammatory properties, which makes it particularly useful for treating bruises. It also has analgesic effects which helps reduce pain associated with bruises. To use lavender oil, mix 4 to 5 drops with ½ teaspoon of a carrier oil such as jojoba oil and gently massage into the affected area 3 to 4 times daily until the bruise fades away.

2) Chamomile Essential Oil

Chamomile essential oil is another popular choice when it comes to treating bruises due to its anti-inflammatory properties. Studies show it can soothe skin irritation while reducing redness and discoloration from bruising. Adding 1 to 2 drops of chamomile oil to a warm compress or bath can provide relief from bruising quickly and effectively.

3) Geranium Essential Oil

Geranium essential oil has powerful astringent properties that research has shown and help promote blood circulation and reduce inflammation associated with acne and bruising. When applied topically, geranium essential oil can speed up the healing process as well reduce the appearance of discoloration left behind by bruising. For best results, mix 2 to 3 drops of geranium oil with ½ teaspoon of aloe vera gel or jojoba oil before applying it directly onto the affected area twice daily for several days until the bruise fades away.

4) Rosemary Essential Oil

Rosemary essential oil is an excellent choice for treating bruises due to its anti-inflammatory properties which helps promote healing and stimulate circulation while reducing swelling and tenderness associated with bruises. To use rosemary essential oil correctly, mix 3 to 4 drops with ½ teaspoon of your favorite carrier oil before massaging it into your skin  2 to 3 times daily until the bruised area improves.

5) Frankincense Essential Oil

Like the other four essential oils listed, frankincense essential oil is also known for its anti-inflammatory properties. To get maximum benefits from this natural remedy you should combine 1 to 2 drops of frankincense essential oil with 1 to 2 drops turmeric oil and ½ teaspoon of argan oil before applying topically onto bruised areas 3 to 4 times daily until desired results have been achieved.
