I have this copaiba balsam essential oil in a blend for inflammation (along with ginger, frankincense, hops, roman chamomile, and helichrysum in carrier oil) right now because the hubby irritated his knee and I personally use it for a twinge in my lower back. We're in love with the blend! The way the scent changes as it's exposed to air never fails to surprise me . . . in a GOOD way. Be careful with that or it will overpower your blend.
Due to it's benefits for skin, Copaiba Balsam is an excellent addition to your personal skin care. I add it (at 1% or less) as an extra protection against the environmental detriments we face daily.
Copaiba Balsam is one that I use when I need extra respiratory support as well. I will diffuse the pure (a drop or two mixed with other respiratory or immune support oils) or use it topically on my chest and well as massaging the lymph glands in my throat.
Properly diluted, it gives fabulous relief to my tired feet after a long day — I've been known to do both my feet and legs to the knees after really long hours on cement.
Copaiba Balsam has also been known to settle occasional tummy upset. Dilute properly and rub on the tummy. Personally, I prefer it mixed with ginger for this application. Separately, both are good. Together, they're great! I mix 2 drops of each in 5mL (one teaspoon) of carrier.
With our pre-diluted oils . . . if diluted for kids is the highest dilution you see, it’s also the max dilution possible. Pre-diluted oils are in fractionated coconut oil.

A pain blend essential, and it smells great too. If you’re a fan of rich warm wood, this is a great addition to your arsenal. So useful for so many applications.

Copaiba is such a lovely aroma that is one of my favorites. I tend to reach for it for many of my pain blends. I also find the warm woody scent very calming. I just love it.
