Sore Muscle Warming Balm
Product Overview
Our Sore Muscle Warming Balm is designed for moments when the body feels tight, tense, or in need of extra care. Extra‑extra virgin olive oil and sunflower oil are slowly infused with arnica flowers, ginger root, and cayenne. After infusion, the plant material is carefully strained, leaving behind an herb‑infused oil that becomes the foundation of the final balm.
The result is a smooth, grounding balm that glides easily onto the skin, offering a balanced warming and cooling sensation without feeling greasy.

Ginger Root (zingiber Officinale):

FAQ
Can I use this on my face?
No. This balm is formulated for external use on the body only, particularly muscles and areas that feel tight or fatigued. Avoid sensitive areas like the eyes or face.
Will it feel hot?
This balm provides a gentle warming sensation from ginger and cayenne, balanced by a cooling touch from menthol. The heat is soothing, not intense. If you feel discomfort, wash the area and discontinue use. This balm is comparable to the sensations of IceHot, Biofreeze, and CryoDerm products.
Is this product safe for all skin types?
The ingredients are generally well-tolerated, but we recommend doing a small patch test first if you have sensitive skin. This balm should not be applied on any open skin or skin lesions (irritated skin). Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

Our Sore Muscle Warming Balm is made with carefully selected botanicals, including arnica, ginger, and cayenne, infused slowly into nourishing oils to capture their natural properties. Every ingredient is chosen for its purity and connection to traditional herbal practices, creating a balm that is gentle, natural, and effective. The convenient push-up tube makes applying these plant-powered ingredients simple and mess-free.
How should I store it?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the tube tightly closed when not in use to maintain freshness. Best used within 12 months.
Can I use this balm on children or pets?
This balm is formulated for adult use. Avoid use on children or pets, as the warming botanicals may be too strong for sensitive skin.
