Here is what some of the experts in the field say about the different plants that are in our products

(references are not related to my product in anyway, except that it is the same plant variatal)


The Essential Oil Blend:

Kunzea

Not only has it been used to deter ticks for ages, topically it is analgesic, and very effective for muscular and arthritic pain.(1)


"I see significant potential for use of Kunzea Essential Oil in emotional and physical applications. Robbi Zeck, ND, writes that Kunzea Essential Oil "helps to defuse deep emotional pain that has grown solid as a result of suppression, creating internal blocks in the body's meridian system." (2)

Zeck also writes, "When your body feels strung out and as tight as a drum kunzea relieves muscular aches, joint pain, and nervous tension."

Plai

Emotionally, Plai Essential Oil is an energizing essential oil that is particularly nice to use when feeling lethargic or sluggish. (aromaweb.com)


Is effective for longterm pain relief (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27266229/)


Plai has been used in traditional Thai massage for many years to combat joint and muscle problems and it is more intense that using Ginger oil.


It is used increasingly for management of pain, especially for any chronic conditions such as arthritis, inflammatory digestive disorders, inflammatory skin conditions and inflammatory respiratory conditions. It is also great for helping torn ligaments, tendonitis, muscular spasm, menstrual cramps and basically any chronic joint pain (Worwood 2016)


Black Pepper


Rheumatism & arthritis, muscular aches and pains, tired and aching limbs, and muscular stiffness. It can be used before training or a performance to prevent pain and stiffness and possibly improve performance. (1)


Dispels cold: In TCM cold is associated with poor digestive function, the onset of an infection with headaches, chills and fatigue, fluid congestion and general aches and pains.(2)


Will help us ‘get a move on’ at times when our lives feel ‘stuck’ (3)

Copaiba Balsam


High in B-Caryophyllene (see below)


B-Caryophyllene


Usually found in higher concentrations in: Copaiba Balsam, Black Pepper, & Clove (in others in lower amounts as well, those just aren't in this formula)


CB2 receptors are found in immune tissues throughout the body and are increased in the brain in disease or following injury. Their activation reduces inflammation, which lessens pain and reduces the damaging consequences that chronic inflammation has on brain function and risk for developing brain diseases.



Hempseed Oil

Hemp seed oil is light and silky, with a pale green color, and a nutty scent and flavor. Containing the recommended 3:1 ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acids, hemp seed oil shines in blends for moisturizing, soothing skin irritation, muscles, joints, and for purifying the skin

infused with:


Arnica

Arnica salve is useful for bruising or other injuries that are close to the skin surface. It further reduces inflammation from injuries, including soft tissue injuries & strains. Also used for bruising, applied externally. It combines well with other inflammatory & pain relieving herbs. (7song.com)


Calendula

It is one of the best wound healing remedies in our western materia medica. It helps wounds to heal much more rapidly, prevents suppuration and stagnation of fluids, modulates any local inflammation, and prevents bacterial overgrowth and infection. The astringency helps to draw the wound together to heal it more rapidly and preventing excessive scar formation. Calendula seems to “clean the wound from the inside out,” indicating that rather than just superficially preventing infection and sealing the wound, it works on a deeper level of the blood and lymphatics in the local tissues and works up and out from there. It is also quite useful as a topical agent for sunburns.


“inflammation modulator,” because most plants will not completely halt the bodies inflammatory process (which is a critical healing aspect of the vital force) but will simply modulate it to a certain extent. This action of Calendula is demonstrated through its topical effects in wounds

St. John's Wort


Joint, muscle, tooth, and nerve afflictions (including sciatica, neuralgia, pinched or damaged nerves; injuries. (https://www.herbrally.com/monographs/st-johns-wort)
