Anti-flamme Cream 

Anti-flamme cream can aid in injury recovery when combined with soft/deep or trigger point massage techniques. Whether you’ve had a sports injury, gradual onset of pain, direct trauma, tight muscles, sudden increase in activity, or repetitive movement, anti-flamme could help you!  

Usage:

  • Joint / muscle aches and sprains
  • Swelling and bruises 
  • Chronic inflammation including arthritis 

How does it work?

Let’s break down the ingredients to give you a better understanding of its use. Anti-flamme contains herbal ingredients including:

  • Arnica which contains chemicals that aid to provide an pain-relieving effect and reduce swelling. 
  • Hypericum perforatum (St John’s Wort) has internal uses but is externally used to treat cuts, burns and muscle pains as it also has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties. 
  • Calendula officinalis is a flower that helps to reduce swelling and facilitates the regrowth of new tissue in wound healing. Key benefits include the prevention of muscle spasms, reduced pain and swelling. 
  • Peppermint oil is a natural analgesic and has all of the similar effects as calendula officinalis. Soothing cramps, pain, and tightness. 

Anti-flamme can be used in conjunction with ice and or medication such as ibuprofen. But if you’re not one to take medication, anti-flamme can be a good alternative on its own, depending on your particular presentation and advice from your clinician. 

As described above, when used in conjunction with massage and other modalities, anti-flamme can help to alleviate pain, swelling, and stiffness. Depending on your injury, you may notice immediate effects or over a period of several treatments.
