I make a pain relief ointment with essential oils for my arthritis & muscle aches. I use frankincense, ginger, lavender, eucalyptus & a single drop of black pepper in an almond oil base. 10 drops total essential oil for every 20 ml base oil for ages 12-65, half that amount if older. There are other oils you can use for pain relief also. Make sure you research the essential oils you choose if you decide to try them. Do not use eucalyptus if he has high blood pressure or epilepsy, 2 drops tops with black pepper & easy on the ginger, they can burn. I would start with just one oil & see how that works (lavender or frankincense) before adding others. Do an allergy test too.For long term use you'd want to rotate oils used.
Hope this helps!
