Main functional substances present:
 
Arnica Montana
Arnica montana is a homeopathic topical pain relief agent. Its mechanism of action is not well known. Arnica preparations have shown wound healing, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and pain relieving properties. Arnica’s actions may be due to two chemicals called Helenalin and Dihyrdohelenalin. These chemicals may modify the action of immune cells, kill bacteria, reduce the activity of chemicals and blood cells that cause inflammation, and kill cancer cells.

Devil’s Claw
Devil’s claw (Harpagophytum procumbens) is a plant native to the Kalahari desert in southern Africa.
Many of the benefits of devil’s claw are attributed to a compound known as harpagoside that is believed to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic (pain-relieving) properties.
The plant is commonly used to treat rheumatic conditions affecting the joints, ligaments, tendons, bones, and muscles. These include back pain, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and tendinitis. Others believe that it can treat fibromyalgia, sciatica, nerve pain, gout, and symptoms of Lyme disease. While robust evidence of its effects is sorely lacking, a number of smaller studies have suggested that devil’s claw may be highly effective in certain situations: Osteoarthritis, Back Pain, Rheumatoid arthritis.
