Menthol gives peppermint essential oil excellent pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties. Just like cold, menthol activates the skin’s thermoreceptors, resulting in deep analgesia (pain relief). The thermoreceptors involved are TRPM8 receptors, which are sensitive to cold temperatures and play a role in inflammation, pain, and itching (skin pruritus). This analgesic (pain-relieving) property has been experimentally verified in a model of chronic neuropathic pain.
Whenever you experience pain, redness, heat, or itching (pruritus), peppermint essential oil will provide relief.
