Motion Energy: reasons to consider it

Warmth where you rub

Methyl nicotinate and cinnamon oil bring a glowing heat to the skin as you massage the balm in.

A fresh, cool start

Camphor, eucalyptus and rosemary oils open with a clean, cooling scent before the warmth builds.

A smooth massage

Glycerin and vegetable oil give a slippery base, so fingers travel over a stiff shoulder without dragging.

Motion Energy: dose and moment of use

Motion Energy: a story from daily use

5/5

My shoulders feel loose by evening

I sew school uniforms in Mwanza and sit at the machine from seven to six. My neck and shoulders turn to stone by the afternoon.

My neighbour lent me her tube of Motion Energy. After closing the shop I massage a little into my neck, starting small. I also stand up and roll my arms every hour now, and evenings are kinder.

Motion Energy: straight answers

A small amount, about the size of a pea, rubbed slowly over the tight spot. The tube holds 50 ml, so it goes a long way.

No. Keep it uncovered, with no heating pad and no tight bandage, as the balm already creates warmth.

Try a dab on a small patch first. Strong redness or itching means wash it away and do not use it again.

Yes, a fresh scent of camphor and eucalyptus with a spicy cinnamon note. Wash your hands well after using it.
