Morphine bomb is a phrase used in the world of essential oils. Although it is called a morphine bomb, it doesn’t contain any morphine. Morphine is a strong pain medication falling under the category of opiates. It is commonly used for pain relief after a major surgery, heart attack, cancer, and it is also prescribed for long standing pain when weaker pain medications no longer work.
Morphine bomb is using a blend of essential oils to relieve pain. Using a glass roller ball to store morphine bomb blends are the easiest and most portable, so you can apply on when you’re on the move. Glass is also more ideal as oils are corrosive to plastic.
Please remember that 100% pure essential oils are very concentrated and will cause irritation when directly applied to the skin undiluted. For topical usage, always dilute the pure essential oils with carrier oil using a 1 – 2% dilution rate. Top brands of essential oils such as doTerra, Plant Therapy and Rocky Mountain Oils also recommend this percentage on their website.
Without further ado, below are some morphine bomb recipes to try out.
