A warming muscle rub
Spending time outdoors in warm weather is one of life's simple pleasures. Whether gardening, tackling projects around the house, or exploring the nearby forests, oceans, and rivers, I make the most of the sunshine and the vitamin D that comes with it. However, with these activities, lumps, bruises and sore muscles often follow.
Years ago, I discovered the benefits of keeping a can of warm can of muscle rub handy. This easy-to-make dressing combines the muscle-soothing properties of St. John's wort with the warming effects of capsaicin, providing relief from the occasional aches and pains of an active lifestyle. Plus, it's not just for summer – this rub also offers comfort during the cold winter months, making it a versatile addition to any pharmacy at home.
