Hello Jim,

I have two long standing clients with Lupus. The oils very much depend
on what symptoms are causing problems at any given time.

My favoured oils though are Celery Seed, Fennel and Carrot Seed. Detox
effect being what in my opinion is the best way to alleviate swollen
joints, these I mix as bath preperations and ointments. For aches and
pains in massage, oils for arthritis are best. I've had excellent
results using Arnica infused oil and Evening Primrose oil blended with
my usual carrier oil.

There have been times when the client has just been too sore in their
joints for any type of massage at all. It's at times like these that
the baths and ointments come into their own.

Some people who have lupus, have very sensitive skin, so oils which
cause photosensiting should be avoided. (Bergamot, Citrus etc.).

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Joanne
