Heat vs. Cold Muscle Care

A simple rule of thumb: use cooling products for a new, acute injury or fresh swelling, and warming products for ongoing muscle tightness or chronic aches. Our Cooling Muscle Spray and Warming Muscle Rub can complement different stages of muscle care. Heat and cold products are not substitutes for professional medical evaluation or treatment.

About Capsaicin

Capsaicin is the naturally warming component found in hot peppers such as cayenne. When applied topically, it creates a warming or burning sensation by interacting with the body's pain-sensing nerves. This makes Capsaicin a popular ingredient in topical products designed for temporary relief of minor muscle and joint aches.

Important Safety Information

Capsaicin can cause a noticeable warming or burning sensation, particularly when first used. Patch test before widespread application. Wash hands thoroughly after use, or use disposable gloves during application.

  • For external use only.
  • Do not apply to open wounds, broken, irritated or damaged skin.
  • Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, nose and other sensitive areas.
  • Do not use if you are allergic to chili peppers or Capsaicin.
  • Do not use on children under 18 unless directed by a healthcare professional.
  • Do not use with heating pads or external heat unless specifically advised by a healthcare professional.
  • Avoid bathing or showering immediately after application, as heat or hot water may intensify the warming sensation.
  • If significant burning, redness, swelling or blistering occurs, discontinue use and wash the area with cool water and mild soap.
  • Seek medical attention for severe or persistent skin reactions.
  • Keep away from children and pets.
  • Do not ingest. Accidental swallowing can be dangerous.
  • If pain persists, worsens or repeatedly returns, consult a qualified healthcare professional.

Insanely good

This stuff feels like a hot sauna in a jar. It's warming, cooling, and effective. I love it!! I have used it for years and can't speak highly enough about it.

Great for chronic pain

I'm a dental hygienist with occupational pain in the neck, back & migraines. This is the best relief I have found & I have tried most likely everything, from doctors, surgical procedures,acupuncture, chiropractic & massage therapists, CBD tinctures & creams & several prescriptions with little relief. I discovered this rub at their Farmer's Market in San Diego two years ago. Best day ever!! I love this muscle rub! Please don't ever stop producing it!

Fantastic for muscle pain

I have terrible back pain that I get once in a while in my lower and middle back. I used this cream for the very first time with my grandma in Germany and she loved it immediately. I had to get another one then once I was back here. The price is not too high for what you are getting. Oh and everything is handcrafted. You just gotta love the stuff from Holistic Science. They really do care about their products and customers :) keep up the good work.
