Lavender helps a lot with stress. Mint seems to help with pain.

I have used oils on certain areas of my body. I am not sure if it is aroma or cooling effect that helps. I also use prescribed 20 percent diclufenac salve, and it temporarily relieves pain.

I do yes, I think certain ones help. My wife made some concoction that I use and it has worked modestly in the past.
