Soaking for 10 minutes or more in a warm bath with a half or full sachet of Hot Muscle Soak with its combination of mustard seed powder, wintergreen, eucalyptus and camphor oil creates an aromatic, warming, recovery blend. Great after a heavy exercise session, as it reduces inflammation, relieves aches and pains in the joints and relaxes the muscles speeding up the body’s recovery time.The heat from the soak can be intense but really improves blood circulation, allowing the body to sweat it out, eliminate toxins like lactic acid, reducing the effects of DOMS (delayed onset muscle stiffness), with the added benefit of being a strong decongestant, clearing blocked sinuses and a tight chest, and aiding in better sleep, leaving the body feeling warm, relaxed and rejuvenated. Very important to stay hydrated as you will sweat a lot when using this soak.
