Island Thyme Blue Heat Analgesic Balm for sore muscles

Blue Heat Balm

Icy heat that cools and soothes achey joints and muscles.
Blue Heat was designed to be a potent yet slightly gentler alternative to our very popular Deep Heat Balm. We removed the chili pepper extract which the Deep Heat has a generous dose of and increased the amount of oils like Peppermint, Eucalyptus, Camphor and Birch - as well as Menthol Crystals - all of which have strong icy-soothing effects. The base of our Blue Heat is made with arnica infused almond oil and beeswax.

It is also a potent respiratory balm and an amazing tension tamer for the head (just apply at back of head at the hair line).

Blue Heat's essential oil blend gives it a wonderful winter-mint smell that makes it truly pleasant to use.

Uses

Soothing for aching joints and muscles. Also very nice for tension headaches and swollen glands.

Directions

Apply to sore area. Rub in gently. The more you apply the stronger it will be. Start with a bit, see how it feels after a few minutes, then you can add more incrementally till it is just right. For tension headaches try at back of head/top of neck at the hair line. For swollen glands dab on a tiny bit. Not recommended for children. Wash hands after use or else it will make everywhere you touch tingle!

Ingredients

Arnica infused sweet almond oil, beeswax, menthol crystals, cooling essential oil blend including peppermint, birch and eucalyptus, vitamin e.

Susan said: Really works and smells terrific

While attending a retreat in Friday Harbor, another guest introduced me to this product. I was amazed at how well it works! I primarily use it for hip bursitis and it helps reduce the level of pain tremendously. Applies easily and smoothly, and a little goes a long way. Tucks nicely into my toiletry bag for travel.

I use this on my feet at night and it really helps them feel better. I planned on it for my shoulders but it also helps my feet! Funny:)

I use the Heat Balm for really intense help (it's awsome!) but this one works for cooling issues really well... surprising well!

I Purchased this product for my 95 year old grandmother who has arthritis. She also recently broke her wrist and has very little hand strength. The 4oz container was impossible to open! Neither myself or my husband could open it either. We had to get a knife and wedge it off. This product is amazing!! Please put it in a more user friendly container.

Sally Clapp said: Product Great but Container Awful

I like the product Blue Heat but the 4 oz size tin is horrible to open. Can't you put this product in a plastic screw top jar? I transfer the product into an old jar with a screw top and it is much easier to use

Hi Sally, Thanks for your feedback. We love the metal tins, but you are right the 4 oz size can be challenging. It would be much better if it had a screw top like the 2 oz size yet it has been hard to find this. It is good to be reminded that we should look again at the packaging options for the 4oz Blue Heat. Regards, Chris & Eliza

My wife has very problematic feet that are pleasantly medicated by Blue Heat. We have purchased this balm before and she needed a resupply since she was depleting her current can.

My daughter and I love the products. (I love all the products that I purchased so far;) she dances a few times a week so she uses it after the shower sometimes and even right after the dance when she hurts. It helps a lot for the mild pain.

Ann said: Miracle Mosquito Bite Relief

Blue Heat Balm is great for pesky mosquito bites. Applied at bed time it cools and tingles the itch away all night long. (It's also a great companion on a flight... a periodic dab under the nose rescued me from 'noxious' odors during a 10 hour flight to London!) Fabulous product!

My daughter and I stumbled on a store in Eastbound a few months ago during a (power outage of all things) and purchased this product. My daughter has very painful arthritis. She cannot tolerate any pain meds. This stuff really works! We like the hot one too. Thank you

I have rheumatoid arthritis and this is truly the only balm that soothes my achy joints. Also, it is superb for muscle aches. The smell is lovely.
