How it works
Camphor, menthol, and peppermint oil activate TRPM8 cold-sensitive receptors and TRPV1 heat-sensitive receptors in the skin, producing a counter-irritant analgesic effect. Eucalyptus oil (containing 1,8-cineole) has mild anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Together they modulate pain signaling and promote local circulation.
Storage
Store at room temperature (15–25°C), away from excessive heat and direct sunlight.
