Mentholated Muscle Rub

 Designed for athletic recovery, muscle tension, and massage applications, this very dense balm is packed with effective actives to soothe aching muscles. Created with the intention of using with moist heat and deep tissue therapy, this formula is very viscous and thick, allowing for use as a stand-alone massage balm. Not only used in clinical and professional environments, this balm really shines when applied directly to achy muscles after stepping out of the shower.

+ concentrated formula that melts into skin but offers 'long spread' and heavy viscosity for massage applications

+ used and sold in clinical spaces that offer manual therapies such as acupuncture, cupping, gua sha, massage, chiropractic, and physical therapy

Worth noting: This product contains menthol and when used on very warm skin or with moist heat, it may cause a tingling or a warming sensation. This is to be expected and is a therapeutic effect that was purposefully built in to the formulation. This effect will subside after 10 minutes, approximately. If you find this sensation unpleasant, you can wash the area with warm soapy water and this should alleviate the mentholated sensation. This sensation is unlikely to occur when applied to cooler skin that is completely dry.
