Do you feel tense after a long day?
Hours hunched over a laptop, a long shift on your feet, a hard session at the gym or a day of gardening: we all know that heavy, tight feeling in the shoulders, back or legs. Warmth has been used for relaxation since ancient times, and a warm massage is one of the simplest ways to switch off in the evening. The Relaxing Thermo Lotion makes that easy at home.
Its essential oils first create a light, fresh sensation on the skin. A moment later a pleasant warmth spreads that encourages relaxation. Eucalyptus oil stimulates circulation in the massaged area, according to LR, and feels pleasantly cooling. At the same time, 45% aloe vera and a rich blend of oils keep the skin moisturised and supple, so a regular massage is good for your skin too.
LR also suggests it for cold feet on winter evenings: massage it in before bed and let the warmth do the rest.

What do people ask about it?
Does the thermo lotion feel hot?
It starts with a fresh feeling and then gently warms. It is a pleasant warmth rather than heat.
Is it suitable for sports massage?
Yes. It combines moisturising aloe vera with eucalyptus and wintergreen, which makes it well suited to a relaxing massage before or after exercise.
Can I use it on my feet?
Yes. LR recommends it for cold feet, massaged in before bed.
Why should I wash my hands afterwards?
The essential oils and menthol can sting if they reach the eyes.
