The Spicy Salve series is formulated to provide natural relief for bodily discomfort.  
 
Blended with powerful botanical extracts, these salves combine warming and cooling ingredients to create layers of relief that last. The initial wave of icy coolness is followed by an undulating heat that will meet you where you’re at and support you in finding the relief you need. 
 
For strong pain or pain on the back, the Extra Spice Salve is recommended. For people who have sensitive skin, the Gentle Spice Salve would be most suitable. Our Spicy Salve is formulated to be a good middle of the road option.
 
The cayenne in this salve is highly responsive to heat—whether that be environmental or from your own body. Taking a walk in a warm environment or wrapping the affected area in an extra layer of clothing (such as wrapping a sweater around your waist) or a brace will increase the heat of the salve as it reacts to your body heat. For example, if the salve is applied to your back, you may find it heats up more when you are seated in a chair, as the heat from your body is trapped against the back of the chair. This is something you can work with to adjust the salve’s effects to your needs. Due to this heat sensitivity, it is not recommended to combine with a heating pad or other form of heating device.

Our products are not only created with intention, but are designed to be paired with intention–your intention. Before use, or upon receiving your product, take a moment to breathe and center into your body. This mindful, embodied moment is the perfect opportunity to pair an intention, prayer, or moment of gratitude with your practice. These little moments create portals, helping us to birth new realities for ourselves and our bodies over time.
 
Even just a little bit of conscious attention can go a long way. ✩‧₊˚
