This DIY Pain Relief Cream Works Wonders On My Achy Hands
I deal with achy hands on an almost daily basis. And while over-the-counter pain relievers do help control the pain, I would easily exceed the dosage recommendations if I took them every time my hands were bothering me!
But luckily for me, I have a secret weapon I can use to treat those localized aches and pains whenever my hands are bothering me: my homemade pain relief cream! Not only is this cream completely natural and safe to use, but it’s also a cinch to make, and I’ll show you how to do it in this post.
I’ve tweaked the recipe since I first posted about it, and you’ll find the new, more streamlined formula in this post. This version gets its pain relieving properties from Restore Essential Oil Blend, which features several soothing and cooling oils, like camphor, peppermint, ylang ylang, and helichrysum.
The Life-Changing Pain Relief Of Restore
A lot of what I share on my blog and in my shop are things that have worked for me, so it’s incredibly gratifying to hear from readers and customers who have had similar experiences. Especially when those experiences had a significant positive impact on someone’s life, like they have for many of the people who have tried Restore Essential Oil Blend.
One woman, Laura, had been dealing with tension in her head and neck while recovering from brain cancer, and even prescription pain killers weren’t working for her. After trying Restore, this is what she had to say:
“This has been a God send! It has definitely changed my life.”
LAURA S.
And Laura isn’t alone. Just read what Dianne had to say:
“I’ve found the Holy Grail of oils. Restore essential oil should be named Magic! It has relieved headaches, muscle aches, stone bruises on my feet, and even knee pain from arthritis. My husband even swears by it now. Getting older no longer means we have to live with aches and pains! That's a magic that's priceless!”

Or this review from R. Roper:
“I haven’t kept track of how many pills, roll-ons, creams, gels, and oils I have tried to relieve the muscle, joint, and headache pain I’ve endured over several years. I have recurring migraines, arthritis, and fibromyalgia. This essential oil blend, Restore, has immeasurably relieved pain for me. If you hurt, don’t hesitate to give this treasure a try.”

The Benefit Of Using Restore In A DIY Cream
In addition to the standard 10ml bottle, Restore is also available in a roll-on bottle format that’s perfect for swiping onto my achy hands (courtesy of both Dupuytren’s contracture and run-of-the-mill arthritis).
But when I’m at home, I often reach instead for my homemade pain relief cream with Restore. It’s great for applying to larger areas affected by aches and pains, and it moisturizes my skin at the same time!
Patricia S., a fellow Dupuytren’s sufferer, is also a fan of the cream format:
“Like Jillee, I have Dupuytren’s contracture in both hands, as well as arthritis. As a fan of her website, I swear by many of her recipes, so I had to try her DIY pain relief cream. I love that it’s just 3 simple ingredients, and it actually helps relieve my pain.”
PATRICIA S.
Carol T. and her husband love it as well:
“I ordered this blend specifically to make Jillee’s pain cream recipe with coconut oil and beeswax. As a 58-year-old woman, this works great for my arthritis and muscle aches and cramps. My 62-year-old husband likes it, too!! It works and I highly recommend it!!”

Here’s how you can make it at home!
How To Make A DIY Pain Relief Cream
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 2 tsp beeswax pellets
- 15 drops Restore Essential Oil Blend
Directions:
Start by melting the coconut oil and beeswax together in a double boiler. (If you don’t have one at home, a heat-safe bowl perched on top of a pan of simmering water will work just as well!)
Stir the oil and wax occasionally until everything is melted and well combined. Next, remove the oil and wax mixture from heat and allow it to cool for about 5 minutes or so.
Add the essential oil to the oil and wax and stir once more. Pour the finished mixture into a storage container with an airtight lid, like a glass jar.
Wait until the cream has set and cooled completely before using.
How To Use Your DIY Pain Relief Cream
Scoop some of the cream out of the container and apply it to the site of any aches and pains. The warmth from your skin and hands will heat up the cream and make it smooth and spreadable.
And give yourself a relaxing mini massage while you’re at it, or better yet, recruit a helper who’s willing to do it for you!
