Pain can be worse for many in winter!!!
We’re pouring a new batch of Deep Eeze Balm this week. And we’ve made it extra-large because the last batch has gone so quickly.
That tells us that there are a lot of you in pain right now.
Magnesium is believed to be naturally anti-inflammatory and pain receptor blocking.
It’s also believed to relax muscles and nerve sheaths.
It may also prevent cortical spreading depression, which produces the visual and sensory changes in the common types of aura associated with migraines.
Arnica is believed to be anti-inflammatory and may have a similar action to ibuprofen.
Zingiberene, a main constituent in ginger oil, may reduce inflammation and provide support for muscle aches, arthritis, migraines and headaches.
Peppermint is anti-spasmodic and cooling and may inhibit muscle contractions in the head and neck while also stimulating blood flow to the area. It’s believed that Peppermint oil may support relief of pain associated with fibromyalgia and myofascial pain syndrome.
Wintergreen oil contains the natural, and very powerful, painkilling substance, methyl salicylate. One teaspoon of wintergreen oil contains as much methyl salicylate as about 20 aspirin.
A study found that Lavender oil inhalation was significantly effective in acute management of migraine attacks, with no side effects. Researchers found that when diluted, lavender essential oil applied topically, may provide pain relief comparable to that of the pharmaceutical medication tramadol.
Frankincense oil’s principal constituents, Boswellic acids, may have anti-inflammatory properties that support pain management of arthritis. Researchers believe that frankincense may prevent the release of leukotrienes, which are compounds that can cause inflammation.
Rosemary contains key chemical compounds that act as an analgesic to inflammation and pain. It has traditionally been used for musculoskeletal pain support.
Clove leaf oil may contain more active Eugenol than the buds. Eugenol inhibits N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors which are involved in pain sensitivity. It produces a mild numbing effect.
Research suggests that lemon eucalyptus oil may support easing of joint pain and reduction of swelling. It has historically been used to regulate and activate the nervous system for nerve pain, headache, and “debility.” It is thought that Lemon Eucalyptus may “activate” Wintergreen to increase it’s actions.
Hemp oil Contains cannabinoids that may alter pain receptors, to reduce pain.
Almond oil has a very relaxing effect on the blood vessels.
Feverfew has historically been used for headaches and migraines. Feverfew's main active constituent, sesquiterpene lactone, parthenolide may work to reduce the likelihood of migraines through physiological pathways.
Devil's claw contains the plant compounds, iridoid glycosides, which have been shown to suppress inflammation. It has been used historically for millennia for pain support.
Researchers found that topical menthol can act as a counterirritant with cooling effects, which desensitizes the sensory nerve cells, nociceptors.
Our Deep Eeze Balm contains all of the above.
