Answers: does anyone have an essential oil recipe for the following:

cramps or stomache ache?
Insect bites: Tea Tree oil- apply topically.
Sprains: Apply a cold compress using eucalyptus, camphor, rosemary or tea tree oil.
Cramps, Stomach ache: Peppermint tea, or inhalation of peppermint oil. There is simply nothing better!
Peppermint is great for stomach aches...sprains too, if you soak it in the peppermint. Insect bites, tea tree oil is great because it's an antiseptic and anti fungal too; it will prevent infection.
oil of oregano treats insect bites well ..as for sprains eucalyptus oil is best,tummy ache i'm not really sure on. maybe check out peppermint oil ? *it's not oil but ginger root is a wonderful natural tummy calmer. :)
Insect bites: Tiger Balm
Sprains: Tiger Balm and/or Eucalyptus oil
Cramps & tummy ache: Camomille tea (use the dried flowers and pour boiling water over a Tbsp of the flowers. Add Honey for taste) This is an old recipe my grandmother always used for us :)
Hope this helps :)
