Leg pain, arthritis, varicose veins, joint inflammation—if you or someone close to you deals with these, you understand how limiting and painful they can be.
My mother once suffered terribly from these same issues. Her legs and joints hurt so badly she could barely walk, and every step was a struggle.
We tried everything: creams, painkillers, massages—but nothing lasted. Then, we discovered something simple, natural, and surprisingly powerful: a homemade oil made with garlic and clove.
The outcome? Truly life-changing.
Here’s why this traditional remedy works and how you can easily make it yourself.
Why Garlic and Clove?
These two ingredients have a long history in natural medicine thanks to their anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, and circulation-enhancing properties.
Garlic:
- Contains allicin, a compound that helps reduce inflammation and pain
- Supports better blood flow, helpful for cold feet and varicose veins
- Eases swelling and joint stiffness
Clove:
- Rich in eugenol, a natural anesthetic and anti-inflammatory
- Quickly relieves sore muscles and aching joints
- Stimulates blood circulation, easing leg numbness and heaviness
How to Make Garlic & Clove Oil at Home
You’ll Need:
- 10 crushed garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon whole cloves
- 1 cup (250ml) of a carrier oil (olive or coconut oil works best)
- Optional: A small piece of fresh ginger for added warmth and pain relief
Instructions:
- Place garlic, cloves, and ginger (if using) in a clean glass jar.
- Pour in the oil until everything is covered.
- Seal the jar and store it in a cool, dark place for 7 to 10 days, shaking it daily.
- Strain the oil into a clean bottle.
- Keep it in a cool area or refrigerate to make it last longer.
How to Apply:
- Warm a small amount in your hands or gently heat it using a double boiler (don’t overheat).
- Massage into the affected areas—legs, knees, joints—ideally before bed.
- Wrap the area with a warm cloth to enhance absorption.
- Use it daily for at least two weeks for noticeable results.
What You Might Notice:
- Reduced inflammation and pain
- Less swelling and discomfort from varicose veins
- Better movement and joint flexibility
- Improved blood circulation
- More relaxed muscles and better sleep
