I agree with Cathy. Absorption through the skin will put any product into your other bodily system. I would stay far away from anything with toxic warnings. I suffer from several illnesses and am always careful about a treatment for any one of the issues that could exacerbate other ones. Alway remember to "Treat the whole patient, not simply just one of your issues." It is a tough buy important balancing act. ❀️

I'm thinking that while this may be used topically, the skin is considered an organ of the body. The skin has absorptive qualities so this has the potential to enter the body.

I'm apprehensive about using any questionable ingredients because of the potential for self harm. I realize that there is a strong desire for relief of our symptoms but please be careful with what is used. I'm anxiously waiting to hear what Deb has to say.

Deb, is it really called turpentine? It makes me think of painting. What are the ingredients?

Tina-I actually found the turpentine at a Chinese medicine store. It's uses say joint pain of arthritis. I have used this brand but menthol for joint pain, and it says may also be used as a perfume. Lol My granddaughter asked me to send her a bottle of my perfume, because she misses me. Anyway, i will try it in one area and see. It has a brown stain, eek. I will stay away from open flame.😜
