Walk it Off Pain Salve is used for its natural topical analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties due to its active ingredient capsaicin, its a natural compound that helps block pain signals from reaching the brain. When applied topically, capsaicin temporarily desensitizes nerve receptors. This helps reduce the perception of pain and can also promote better flow and overtime with regular use, can diminish chronic pain signals for conditions like arthritis, sciatica, back pain and neuropathy. Ginger powder added for its anti-inflammatory effects and helping with muscle pain and cramps.
Benefits: pain relief for various types of minor to chronic pain:
