Emu Therapy - The Magic of Nature

Our Story

From a budding idea in the mind of an entrepreneur from Oklahoma to an international name, Emu Therapy continues to grow on the tradition set in place by Blue Stuff and Blue Spring International. Our loyal consumer base throughout the United States and the world beyond have come to trust the products from these brands, and often let us know that they can't (or at least don't want to) live without them! Pain relief is our specialty, and we are interested in changing the lives of those who have been suffering from aches and pains for far too long.

As a family brand, we understand the stress you feel when watching a friend or loved one suffer from joint and muscle pain. It is our mission to prevent and reduce pain in the lives of people of all ages. Understandably, it can be a struggle to transform your lifestyle from inactive to active no matter what your age. We strive to make it easy and hope to give individuals the pain relief they need to become active again.

    THE IDEA

    A great Oklahoma businessman and entrepreneur, Jack McClung, is searching far and wide for the next big thing. He is first introduced to Emu Oil and its miraculous powers of instant relief at a State Fair. His creative ideas begin to flourish.

    LOCAL FANS

    Jack experiments with Emu Oil and finds that it is a miracle for pain relief. Mixing the concoction in ketchup containers, he supplies the cream to customers at his local BBQ restaurant. After collaborating with an old friend on the ingredients, word begins to spread about Jack’s magical pain relief cream.

    THE BLUE STUFF

    With new herbal ingredients in the mix, Jack finds that his pain relief formula works even better. He closes his BBQ restaurant and opens a “Pain Clinic” where he advertises free treatments. Jack originally called his brand new product “Emugesic Balm,” but his customers were itching for a more straight forward name - and this is how “The Blue Stuff” came to be.
