Melissa's Botanicals 
Pain Remedy
About
Melissa’s Botanicals’ signature P*!N Remedy provides fast relief for aches and pains, such as arthritis and tendonitis.
Use P*!N remedy to refresh, energize, treat headaches, soothe tense muscles, cool hot flashes, relieve nausea, and to open the lungs for deeper breathing during your work out or yoga session.
Our Formula is blue in color because of the ingredient, blue chamomile. This oil contains the compound chamazulene, an anti-inflammatory in the sesquiterpene portion of Melissa’s chemistry chart.
Another key ingredient is peppermint. Peppermint acts as a “driver” to help the other anti-inflammatory and analgesic essential oils penetrate deep into the skin and muscle tissue. Peppermint is a fast-acting analgesic that feels icy/hot, so don’t be surprised if you feel a cool, tingling sensation! This is peppermint at work, aiding in circulation and reducing inflammation and pain.
Uses
- Topical – P*!N Remedy provides fast relief for aches and pains, such as arthritis and tendonitis. Use P*!N remedy to refresh, energize, treat headaches, soothe tense muscles, cool hot flashes, relieve nausea, and to open the lungs for deeper breathing during your work out or yoga session.
To use: Roll directly on to affected areas and allow oils to penetrate for 5 -10 minutes to reach full effectiveness. May be used as often as every two hours for acute conditions. Do not dilute or apply on broken skin. If you find that the treatment is not working, try adding more, wait 20 minutes. You should feel icy/hot, and relief from pain.
