Cayenne Infused oil
Cayenne oil is not nearly as irritating to the skin as capsaicin creams, and I use it regularly for lower back pain, neuralgia, sciatica, muscle aches, fibromyalgia and arthritis pain. For quick headache relief, massage the oil, or a cayenne balm across the temples. Cayenne oil can also help to clear psoriasis and deter itching.
4 tbsp Cayenne pepper powder
1 cup Olive oil
Cautions: Cayenne oil contains capsaicin, which causes a burning sensation. This is normal and should decrease with repeated use capsaicin only causes the sensation of damage, not real damage to tissues. Test the strength of your oil on a small patch of skin to gauge its effects before applying to wide areas.
Additions:Menthol crystals, peppermint or rosemary essential oils
Ingredients: Cayenne Pepper *
Recipe Instructions: Herbal Oil Infusions :
The ratio of oil to pepper will depend on the hotness of the peppers, and your own preferences, a good ratio is 1 part powder to 5 parts oil
Use a steady source of low heat for 10 days to 2 weeks, apx. 100 degrees F.
Stir every day until the last. Pour off into a clean jar and let settle overnight. Decant the clear oil off the top.
Cayenne oil makes a great base for balms. To make a "icy/hot" oil add menthol crystals to oil while still warm enough to melt the crystals. Watch out for the fumes! For a less intense menthol experience, add peppermint essential oil when the cayenne oil cools to room temperature
