has anyone got a good blend for Caprol tunnel syndrome? but i can not use oils that contain 1.8 cineole and 1.4 cineole, due to the medication he is on.
i am thinking of using eucalyptus,fennel and frankincense.
has anyone got a blend that they have used for this and had good results??

Haven't got any clients with carpal tunnel, my Mum still gets pain where she had hers operated on (a long long time ago), I made a blend for her to use as and when, Lavender, Roman Chamomile and Peppermint, the massage helps alot too for the scar.

I don't know if you can't use these oils, but I would have thought Helichrysum or Hyssop, maybe Palmarosa.

Curious of your choice of Eucalyptus, as it will need to be lacking its main ingredient of Eucalyptol (1.8 cineole)? Eucalyptus Citriodora perhaps?
Similar to my reservations about using Bergamont FCF etc.

Price recommends German Chamomile (but do not substitute with Roman, as this often has 1.8 cineole).

Have you considered Juniper berry or Cypress?

I like your choice of Fennel and Frankincense.

Eucalyptus would definitely be a no no. 1,8 cineole (also known as eucalyptol) is found in quite a few essential oils in various quantities including eucalyptus, rosemary, bay, roman chamomile, cajuput, fennel, hyssop, lavender, marjoram, nutmeg, peppermint, pine, sage, and tea tree.

How about Plai (you'd need to check it's constituents), helicrysum, sandalwood, and ginger.

Also you could try arnica.
