When wintergreen essential oil is rubbed on the strained muscle, this oil is readily absorbed through the skin and the presence of methyl salicylate induces numbness and an anesthetic effect on the nerves there. It also increases the circulation of the blood and brings warmth to the muscles. Wintergreen essential oil will eradicate pain and drive out stress and tension. This is a very pleasant way of getting a sound sleep at the end of the day for those who often lose sleep due to pain or stress. Wintergreen does not let toxins like uric acid accumulate at stressed muscle. Wintergreen is absorbed through the skin & reaches the bloodstream very easily, where it stimulates and increases urination, acting as a diuretic. This speeds up the removal of toxins like uric acid from the body through urination. The removal of excess water, fats, and salts through urine helps in losing weight. The high degree of toxicity of this oil can make it fatal to bacteria and other microbes such a virus, fungi and protozoa as well. We can rub a wintergreen oil over abdomen, stomach and lower back to improve blood flow and prevent cramping or pain.
