What are the benefits?  

Essential Oils

Our essential oils have been individually selected for properties targeting pain specifically for arthritis. We use 100% pure essential oils with out any carrier oil. Pure essential oils may be costly but purity is the only way to benefit from their use.

Jojoba Oil  

It is argued that jojoba oil “tricks” the skin into stopping the production of sebum through somehow mimicking it. This also means that jojoba oil will assist in breaking down sebum in plugged-up pores. Sebum and jojoba oil mixes readily without sealing off skin pores. Jojoba oil will not cause blackheads that contribute to acne. The skin rapidly absorbs the jojoba oil, thus pores and hair follicles remain open and can function freely. In essence, the structure of jojoba oil closely resembles that of your own skin sebum. Studies on jojoba oil at the Ben Durion University in Israel have shown that jojoba oil also relieves the symptoms of psoriases. Continued use of jojoba oil results in reducing superficial facial lines.  

Calendula  

History records that because this flower contains antiseptic, anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties it promotes wound healing. It was used on the battlefields where usually a plant could be found. Calendula is also extremely effective for the treatment of inflammatory conditions such as, ulcerations, varicose veins, hemorrhoids, mastitis, cysts, impetigo or other inflamed lesions. Pharmacological studies in Europe have proven that calendula flowers promote metabolism of proteins and collagen. In other words it helps to grow new, healthy cells, and minimize scaring.  

White Tea  

Scientists at University Hospitals of Cleveland and Case Western Reserve University have proven that ingredients in white tea are effective in boosting the immune function of skin cells and protecting them against the damaging effects of the sun. Scientists applied a white tea extract cream to one path of skin not normally exposed to sun, while another area was left unprotected. Both areas were then exposed to artificial sunlight.  Three days later scientists compared the patches of skin on a cellular level. They found the white tea extract protected the outermost layers of cells from being obliterated, and the immune function of the cells had been restored by the extract. They also found that the DNA damage that can occur in cells after exposure to sunlight was limited in the skin cells protected by the white tea extract. The sun-exposed skin without the extract showed damaged cells on all levels.   

Grape Seed  

Grape seed extract contains Polyphones or (OPC) nature’s most powerful antioxidant. Grape seed antioxidants are 20 times more powerful than vitamin C and 50 times more potent that Vitamin E. OPC enhances the natural renewal and production of collagen regulated by the body itself and promotes cell health. OPC binds to collagen fibers and realigns them to their youthful, undamaged form. Preventing early facial wrinkles that occur because of lack of skin elasticity.
