Juniper is well known for its soothing effect so can help with rheumatic pains, arthritis, gout and muscle cramps.

It is stimulating so can have a beneficial effect when suffering from poor circulation or the cold. It is excellent to use as a massage cream on tense and aching muscles, for example shoulders, neck, back and can help with growing pains.

Juniper is particularly beneficial to use after sport and manual work, and beforehand to support the ‘warm-up’ of muscles, thus helping to reduce the risk of strains. The skin may turn slightly red when applied however this is only the effect of improved circulation.

SUGGESTED COMBINATIONS

Ideal to use after a Juniper Bath or a Mountain Hayseed Bath. If suffering from muscle or joint pain, mixing a 2 or 3 of drops of Herbal Oil 31 to the cream can have an added beneficial effect
