Over many years of writing and creating recipes for Aromahead Institute, I have shared a LOT of essential oil recipes for stomach pain!

. . . on The Aromahead Blog . . .

. . . on our YouTube Channel . . .

. . . in our free email series Aromahead Weekly . . .

. . . in my books, The Heart of Aromatherapy and Essential Living . . .

And more!

When I sat down to create a new blog post for you about essential oil recipes for stomach pain, I thought, "Why not share some of my favorite recipes about stomach pain from the past few years?"

It's good to have options, so you can choose a recipe and method of use (such as an inhaler or belly oil) that works for YOU.

So here are 4 of my favorite essential oil recipes for stomach pain—from different sides of the Aromahead community! In some places, I'll simply link to the post or video with the recipe. In others, I'll include the recipe right here.

Aromahead Weekly is our free weekly email series. Each month focuses on a specific essential oil, and every week you learn a new way to use the oil and a recipe. 

This stomach pain recipe is from September 2019—our "oil of the month" was Yarrow. 

Yarrow's "Little Bit o' Blue"Belly Oil

  • 1 oz (30 ml) Jojoba Wax (Simmondsia chinensis)

  • 8 drops Bergamot Mint essential oil (Mentha x citrata)

  • 6 drops Yarrow essential oil (Achillea millefolium)

  • 4 drops Coriander essential oil (Coriandrum sativum)

Yarrow's Little Bit o' Blue Belly Oil

Make this blend in a 1 oz (30 ml) glass bottle. Combine the jojoba and essential oils and shake gently. Massage it into your belly and low back when you've eaten something that doesn't agree with you.

Basil's "Pat Your Head & Rub Your Belly" Inhaler

(You can purchase The Heart of Aromatherapy here

Basil's "Pat Your Head and Rub Your Belly" Inhaler

  • 7 drops Basil ct. linalool essential oil (Ocimum basilicum ct. linalool)

  • 5 drops Bergamot Mint essential oil (Mentha x citrata)

  • 4 drops Peppermint essential oil (Mentha x piperita)

This is a great essential oil recipe for stomach pain AND for headaches! (Especially if you have both at the same time.)

Basil's Pat your Head & Rub Your Belly Inhaler

To make it, put the essential oil drops on the cotton wick of an Aromatherapy inhaler. Slip the cotton into the inhaler's "sleeve" and snap the cap into place.

I made sure to include something for everybody (and every belly) here. I hope you find a new favorite out of these 4 essential oil recipes for stomach pain!
