*Certified Organic Ingredient

*Dandelion Leaf: I often use dandelion in oral extracts as a bitter tonic or diuretic but it is also an effective reliever of joint pain when taken orally or infused in oil and used topically. The constituents help to inhibit inflammation and massaging onto swollen and painful joints can help control flare ups.

*Menthol Crystals: Menthol is an organic compound found in many plants including mint varieties and eucalyptus. The crystals are created by rapidly cooling these plants. Menthol functions as a topical analgesic and relieves pain. The cooling action helps to soothe sore muscles and joints and reduce inflammation and desensitize some of the nerves responsible for sending pain signals. While menthol doesn’t actually lower body temperature, it stimulates the body’s thermoreceptors. This sends a signal to the brain that the body is cooling down. It has also been shown to increase blood flow and therefore speed healing. Menthol also reduces bronchial constriction and airway hyper-responsiveness and thus eases respiratory infections, cough and restrictions.

*Peppermint Leaf: Peppermint is renowned as an antispasmodic to alleviate cramping and spasms. It is a favorite for relieving headaches and other body aches.

*Eucalyptus Leaf: Eucalyptus contains many anti-inflammatory compounds, such as cineole and limonene, which may act as pain relievers.

*Basil Essential Oil: This is one many people do not use very much but is appropriate in this salve! It can also be used to alleviate the symptoms of asthma, bronchitis, and sinus infections. It may improve blood circulation, has possible analgesic properties and may alleviate cramping due to its carminative properties.

To use: Rub onto the chest and behind the neck and breathe deeply for congestion relief. Use as needed for arthritis and joint pain.
Avoid use near the eyes.

**This product contains menthol. Be very careful with use around young children. Use only on the feet or back if at all.

Loved it so much that I HAD to order more!!!

I originally ordered this for my dad as he has been having a lot of joint issues. My husband mistakenly thought this was for him & used it! Haha! I'm glad he did actually as he has joint pains too. It worked so well for him that I placed a second order right away for my dad! It came in the mail very quickly! Now both guys will have some relief! Thank you so much for creating this!

We've been using this stuff since the whole family has been congested and I can definitely tell a difference! Little man's nose isn't constantly running now. He's 2 so the Dr would probably only prescribe cough meds anyway. It also helps us all sleep better!

Breathe easy

I use this on myself and my kids to help is breathe easier when we are sick. Steam showers followed by this salve are a perfect combo. On my kids, I just use it on the bottoms of their feet. For myself I use it on my chest. It helps immediately!

You can Breathe!

This salve can cut through the congestion and give you relief, quickly. While the smell does not bother me, my children say it is a little strong; however, I apply very little behind their ears and it still does wonders for them.

Instant congestion relief

This is a newer product for me so I've only used it once, but Holy cow it works! It gave relief from congestion and helped me actually be able to get to sleep faster because I wasn't hacking as much.
