Essential Oils For Everyday Ailments
When it comes to everyday ailments like headaches, joint pain, indigestion, and insomnia, I find that a multifaceted approach is often the most effective way to find relief. I just want to find an effective solution, and if it works quickly and without any unpleasant side effects, even better!
If an over-the-counter medicine is the best tool for the job, I have no problem with that. But where do you turn when traditional OTC drugs don’t seem to work for you, or when the side effects negate the benefits? Personally, that’s usually when I turn to essential oils!
Skeptical? I don’t blame you one bit! I once scoffed at the idea of oils taking the place of the pills in my medicine cabinet and assumed that natural alternatives like essential oils would be inherently less effective. Luckily, I’ve since woken up and learned that simply isn’t the case!
In fact, some people find that essential oils work better than certain OTC medicines they’ve never had much luck with. In order to help make it easy for you to find the right products, I’m sharing a list of medicine cabinet staples that can easily be swapped for natural remedies.
5 Essential Oil Swaps You Can Make In Your Medicine Cabinet
1. Relieve Pain With Restore
Chronic pain can be exhausting—physically, mentally, and emotionally. And while over-the-counter pain meds can help, they’re not always enough, especially when you’re dealing with pain on a daily basis.
My oldest son, Erik, has Rheumatoid Arthritis, an autoimmune condition that causes painful inflammation in his joints. Earlier this year, he went through the worst flare-up he’s ever had. Here’s how he described it:
“This past spring, I went through the worst autoimmune flare-up I’ve ever had. It lasted nearly two months, and the pain was brutal, mostly in my shoulders, hips, and knees. It was constant, and sometimes sharp enough to stop me in my tracks. I came close to taking medical leave from work, which honestly shook me. While my doctors ran tests and adjusted my meds, I still had to function day to day—and that was no small task.
I used Restore it daily—sometimes more than once a day—just to get through meetings, stay on my feet, and sleep at night. It helped me stay mobile and manage the pain in a way that felt sustainable. I was also taking ibuprofen, but I knew I couldn’t lean on that long-term. Restore gave me a natural option I could count on. Looking back, I’m honestly not sure how I would’ve made it through that stretch without it.
I’m doing much better now, but I still keep Restore at my desk and on my nightstand and use it as needed. It’s become part of my routine whenever that familiar stabbing pain or soreness starts to creep in. It gives me peace of mind knowing I have something that works—and that I can trust it to help me keep moving forward.”
Whether you’re dealing with something chronic like Erik or the occasional aches and pains of everyday life, Restore is one of the most practical additions you can make to your medicine cabinet.
Restore comes in three different formats so you can use it in whatever way works best for you:
- Restore Balm: A mess-free twist-up stick that’s ideal for larger areas like hips, shoulders, and legs. Infused with menthol crystals and deeply moisturizing butters for added relief.
- Restore Roll-On: A pre-diluted blend in a convenient roller bottle for quick, targeted relief on fingers, neck, knees, or wrists.
- Restore Essential Oil Blend: For those who like to DIY, this undiluted version is perfect for making your own creams, massage oils, or compresses.
Each version features powerful oils like wintergreen, camphor, peppermint, ylang ylang, helichrysum, and blue chamomile—all known for their muscle-soothing and anti-inflammatory properties.
Restore has become one of the most beloved items in my shop for a reason—it works.
Right now, all three Restore formulas are on sale: the Balm is $20 (reg. $34.99), the Roll-On is 3 for $30 (reg. $16.99 each), and the undiluted Essential Oil Blend is 3 for $45 (reg. $19.99 each). If you’ve been curious to try it—or want to stock up—this is the perfect time to save.

2. Kick Headaches To The Curb With Complete Relief
When a headache strikes, it doesn’t just hurt—it throws your whole day off track. Whether it creeps in slowly while you’re trying to relax or hits like a bolt when you need to focus, the timing is never convenient.
After trying pills that sometimes worked—and sometimes didn’t—I needed a better option. Complete Relief has become my go-to for easing headaches and tension naturally, without caffeine, drowsiness, or side effects.
Just swipe the pre-diluted blend across your temples, neck, or shoulders for fast-acting relief wherever you are.
“I had tried Ibuprofen, Tylenol, and Excedrin Tension, and sometimes they would work and sometimes not. I seem to have an issue with tension in my jaw, and nothing works, but Complete Relief works within minutes when I apply it.” – Joyce P.
Complete Relief combines marjoram, black pepper, basil, spike lavender, and copaiba oils—all known for their calming and anti-inflammatory properties. It was designed for head and neck tension, but customers tell me they use it for everything from joint pain to bug bites.
“This is magic! My sciatica was acting up, and I rubbed some of this on the top part of my left leg, and it made it so I could sleep!” – Laura S.
“I use this before bed every night and it’s helped drastically with my migraines and headaches!” – Amanda G.
Right now, you can get Complete Relief as part of my Essential Oil Sale—just $30 for 3 roll-ons (regularly $16.99 each). Whether you’re dealing with daily headaches or occasional tension, this little bottle can make a big difference.

3. Breathe Easily With All Clear
Waking up congested is the worst. That heavy pressure, foggy head, and inability to breathe deeply—it doesn’t just affect your body, it drags your whole day down.
For a more natural way to breathe more easily, I started looking for something that could work with your body, not against it. That’s what led to All Clear, a powerful blend of essential oils that helps open airways and reduce inflammation, without the side effects of conventional sprays.
My daughter Britta, who deals with year-round allergies, helped me perfect the formula. It’s her go-to during peak allergy seasons:
“I take a daily allergy pill, but it’s not nearly enough to keep my symptoms under control during the spring and fall. During those times, I rely on All Clear to pick up the slack and keep symptoms like congestion, nose and eye irritation, and other unpleasantness under control.”
The blend features peppermint, eucalyptus, tea tree, lemon, rosemary, and other essential oils known for respiratory support. Just add a few drops to your diffuser at bedtime, breathe it straight from the bottle, or rub a drop between your hands and inhale deeply.
“I used the All Clear in my diffuser and I had the best sleep ever! Extra bonus—my husband did not snore!!! Not even a small snort!” – Kate N.
“Don’t think I can live without this—it’s made a huge difference in how I sleep and how I feel the next day!” – Margi V.
If you’ve been struggling with congestion or allergies, now’s the perfect time to try All Clear—it’s part of my Essential Oil Sale for just $15 when you buy 3 or more undiluted blends.

4. Ease Indigestion And Nausea With Tum Ease
Whether it’s heartburn after a big meal or a queasy stomach that hits out of nowhere, digestive discomfort can throw everything off. When it happens, you need relief fast—but without the side effects of pills or chalky antacids.
I wanted something I could trust to ease my stomach without relying on pills—and that’s exactly what Tum Ease offers. This soothing roll-on blend features ginger, coriander, tangerine, sweet fennel, and marjoram—oils that have been trusted for generations to ease nausea, bloating, and indigestion.
Just roll it onto your lower abdomen, the soles of your feet, or even your wrists for quick, calming support.
One of my customers, Barbara, wasn’t sure about it at first. Back in December, she left this honest review:
“I ordered this because I have a lot of stomach problems. I will say I was surprised how well it helped. Of course, I had already taken several other things when I remembered about having the Tum Ease, but I believe it made the biggest difference. Will know for sure next time.”
Then just recently, she came back with an update:
“Pleasantly surprised! I wrote a review on this a while back and was not sure at the time if it really worked. Well, I will let you know it does work. I have GERD really bad if I eat a big meal. I will never be without Tum Ease ever again. It works, and it works fast.”
That’s exactly the kind of support I hoped Tum Ease would offer—something gentle, reliable, and easy to take with you wherever you go.
“My husband suffers from heartburn frequently, usually in the middle of the night… nothing helped until now. Tum Ease is amazing!” – Regina V.
Tum Ease is included in my Essential Oil Sale right now—get 3 roll-ons for just $30 (regularly $16.99 each). It’s the perfect time to try it or keep extras in your purse, nightstand, or travel bag.

5. Sleep Soundly With Slumber
Few things are as frustrating as lying awake at night when you’re exhausted but can’t seem to fall—or stay—asleep. Whether it’s a racing mind, hormonal shifts, or chronic restlessness, sleep issues can leave you feeling drained and defeated.
So many women in our community have shared how Slumber helped them finally get the restful sleep they’ve been missing. Like Monica:
“Slumber was my last hope. I have tried everything from melatonin to Advil PM to sleep patches. Nothing helped until I got this Slumber Essential Oil. I have been sleeping ever since, and that is a whole week which has never happened before. Try it and sleep like a baby.” – Monica G.
Slumber features a calming blend of lavender, cedarwood, marjoram, lime, bergamot, and vetiver essential oils—each chosen for its ability to calm the mind, ease tension, and support deep, consistent sleep. It comes in two forms:
- A 10ml bottle of the pure essential oil blend, perfect for diffusing or adding to your favorite DIY sleep recipe.
- A pre-diluted roll-on for quick, mess-free application on temples, wrists, or the bottoms of your feet before bed.
Many of our customers use both together in the Good Night Sleep Kit, creating a relaxing bedtime ritual that fits easily into their routine:
“This product has helped me turn my bad sleep habits into a pleasant ‘fall asleep and stay asleep’ routine. I’d recommend the Good Night Sleep Kit to anyone with sleep issues.” – Sherry B.
“I use a few drops in my diffuser and swipe the roll-on on my temples and neck. Within minutes, the book I’m reading is falling on my face—because I’m out!” – Becky H.
While Slumber is currently sold out due to overwhelming demand, we’re restocking in the next few weeks. If you’d like to be the first to know when it’s back—and lock in the current Essential Oil Sale price—just enter your email on the product page. You’ll be notified the moment it’s available again.
“I’ve struggled with falling and staying asleep for years. I’ve tried other essential oils and OTC sleep aids—nothing worked until I tried this kit. I fall asleep quicker and sleep better. I love the smell too!” – Markita S.
A good night’s sleep shouldn’t feel out of reach. Slumber makes it simpler to wind down, stay asleep, and wake up feeling like yourself again.
