Your massage oil is ready to use

Massage on over-stretched, pulling, strained or sensitive areas (legs, arms, etc.)

before your work-out: as a muscular awakening before your warm-up/stretching session. This massage should not last more than 10 minutes. Apply in quick friction and sliding pressure to warm up your muscles. 

after work-out: Stretch well, apply on cleaned skin and massage for about 15 to 20 minutes.

Apply in slow, sliding, pressure to deeply loosen your muscle(s) and promote blood circulation and repair micro lesions responsible for aches and pains. Then knead your muscle to relieve muscle pain

Should you choose just a spot treatment, use 1 drop of the essential oil for 4 drops or carrier oil
