Looking for Muscle Pain Relief? Check out this Natural Remedy

The start of the new year has brought a new commitment to physical activity to my schedule. Every morning I start the day by performing 20 minutes of exercise. Followed up by a second wind workout of running or a nature walk later in the day. Needless to say, my muscles have been working overtime lately!

And while I have been blessed with more energy and mental clarity as a result of my new workout routine, I have also been experiencing some muscle pain after working out. But, having a muscle pain relief cream on hand has been key to keeping up with my new years commitment to stay active and fit.

If you are new here you should know, I am a big believer and advocate of natural solutions. Over the past few years, integrating a more natural approach to health and wellness has been a huge focus for me. Similarly, my search for a muscle pain remedy has led me to an enriching blend of essential oils…
