Uses and Benefits of Frankincense: Nature’s Anti-Inflammatory Secret
When pain and inflammation take over, it can feel like you’re stuck in a cycle of discomfort—reaching for over-the-counter meds that only mask the pain but don’t address the root of the problem. We’ve been there too. That’s why we’re passionate about natural solutions that actually work. And one of the most powerful, time-tested remedies? Frankincense.
For thousands of years, frankincense has been prized for its healing properties. Ancient cultures valued it as highly as gold, and today, modern research is confirming what healers have known all along—frankincense is a natural powerhouse when it comes to reducing inflammation and easing pain. In our latest video, Todd Bailey, CEO of Herbal Mana, dives deep into the uses and benefits of frankincense, breaking down the science behind its anti-inflammatory effects and how it can help you hurt less and live more.
Why Inflammation is the Real Enemy
Inflammation is at the root of so many chronic conditions—arthritis, joint pain, muscle soreness, and even digestive disorders. It’s the body’s way of responding to injury, but when inflammation becomes chronic, it can lead to long-term damage and ongoing pain.
Many people turn to NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) like ibuprofen or Aleve for relief, but as Todd shares in the video, relying on these drugs long-term can have serious consequences. They can tear up your stomach, cause internal bleeding, and create kidney and liver issues. Todd learned this the hard way after years of using NSAIDs to manage joint pain, only to discover that they weren’t fixing the problem—they were just covering it up.
That’s where frankincense comes in. Unlike NSAIDs, which only provide temporary relief, frankincense works to reduce inflammation at the source, helping your body heal rather than just numbing the pain.
The Science Behind Frankincense’s Healing Power
So what makes frankincense so special? The secret lies in boswellic acids, powerful compounds that target the body’s inflammatory response. These acids block certain enzymes that trigger inflammation, providing natural relief without the side effects of conventional medications.
Frankincense has been shown to help with:
✔️ Arthritis and joint pain relief
✔️ Muscle soreness and stiffness
✔️ Inflammatory conditions like IBS and asthma
✔️ Faster healing of injuries
✔️ Stress and anxiety reduction (because pain isn’t just physical—it’s emotional, too)
And when combined with DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide), frankincense’s benefits become even stronger. DMSO helps carry frankincense deeper into the tissues, providing faster and longer-lasting relief where you need it most. It’s a one-two punch against pain and inflammation.

How to Use Frankincense for Maximum Relief
In our video, Todd shares the different ways you can use frankincense for pain relief and overall wellness:
- Topical application: Apply frankincense oil or a frankincense-based gel directly to sore joints and muscles for targeted relief.
- Aromatherapy: Diffusing frankincense essential oil can help calm the nervous system and reduce stress, which can make pain more manageable.
- Internal use (with proper guidance): Some studies suggest that high-quality frankincense supplements or oils can support immune and digestive health.
