PR-126: Foot & Leg Comfort 8-oz. jar

Foot & Leg Comfort Cream with emu oil is a rich and soothing combination of arnica, emu oil, aloe vera, menthol, and nine other natural herbs in a spreadable cream. It helps improve circulation, revitalizes tired legs and feet, and is the ultimate pain reliever. As an added benefit, it reduces swelling and deeply moisturizes feet, legs, and cracked heels.

We did not create this product to provide a cure for any particular illness or medical condition, but it was instead designed to become a powerful resource to fight the discomforts often suffered in the lower extremities. If your feet are fatigued, swollen, or achy due to a long day of walking or sitting for a period of time, the natural ingredients in Foot & Leg Comfort will have a soothing effect that helps encourage healthy blood circulation for maximum relief. 

The flow of blood from the upper body into the lower extremities is crucial to your overall health and well-being. When blood circulation slows, your leg muscles and feet do not receive the nutrients and healthy cells needed for proper functioning. This typically occurs when plaque collects inside your arteries and narrows the passageway. The result is a condition known as peripheral artery disease. If you suffer from cold toes, numbness in your legs or feet, or muscle spasms, you may be having symptoms of the disease. 

Along with a healthy lifestyle, Foot & Leg Comfort Cream is a safe, natural way to stimulate and improve circulation throughout your feet and legs. Ingredients, such as coriander fruit oil have been historically used to help improve circulation, while ingredients like Whole Leaf Aloe Vera and Arnica Montana Flower Extract have been used as natural remedies to help fight inflammation and swelling.

Other ingredients soothe irritated skin and ease tired, sore muscles for overall relief of any discomforts you may feel in your legs or feet. If you suffer from dry, cracked, or dehydrated skin, you can count on ingredients like emu oil, purified water, and MSM to help moisturize and soothe your skin. When used on a daily basis, you can keep your skin well hydrated, which brings relief from dryness, cracks, and other irritations.

Foot & Leg Comfort is best used to soothe the stresses on your feet and legs that come with daily life. There will be days when you are exhausted and your muscles ache due to stress, or a lot of walking, bending, and other motions. Sitting down for a moment to rub your legs and feet with this cream will help restore your energy so you can get through the rest of your day, or relax in the evening feeling completely soothed and comforted.

Foot & Leg Comfort Cream is easy to apply. Simply rub it over your skin and wait for relief to set in. There are no known negative side effects, so you can use this cream frequently with peace of mind. Many of our customers report that using it before bedtime helps them get a more restful night's sleep. Don’t allow discomfort to interfere with your mobility; take action and experience the pain relief power of BLUESPRING brand Foot & Leg Comfort Cream.

WHAT INGREDIENTS ARE IN FOOT & LEG COMFORT?

The astounding effectiveness of Foot & Leg Comfort is due to the unique blend of our 19 natural ingredients. All ingredients are safe for use by diabetics.

ALOE BARBADENSIS LEAF (WHOLE LEAF ALOE VERA)

Since the ancient Egyptian times, aloe vera has been used in herbal medicines all over the world for its beautifying and healing properties.

In modern times, research has determined that aloe vera is a more effective anti-inflammatory than 1% hydrocortisone cream.

We use only 100% Whole Leaf Aloe Vera in all of our formulas.

EMU OIL

Emu oil is nature’s miracle oil. Extracted from the emu bird, the oil contains extraordinary medicinal properties that have been used for thousands of years by Australian Aborigines. 

A study done on emu oil by the Forsyth Institute in Boston, Massachusettes found that emu oil contains anti-inflammatory properties.

Emus are raised drug free without any steroids, antibiotics or growth hormones. The oil is quick absorbing, making it non-greasy and it does not clog pores (non-comedogenic). It does not contain any irritating substances (hypo-allergenic) and is almost completely odorless.

Though the American FDA lists emu oil only as a moisturizer, studies have been done around the world on the therapeutic effects of emu oil.

We use only a “Grade A” certified emu oil that is not over-refined. Over-refining can detract from the nutrients that make the oil work so well.

MENTHOL

We use menthol that is naturally derived from the peppermint plant and has a slight peppermint smell. When used topically, it is approved by the FDA as a pain reliever when included in a product at specific levels.

When applied to the skin, menthol produces a cooling sensation by stimulating the body’s cold receptors. Additionally, menthol can be used as a mild anesthetic to treat skin irritation, sunburn and muscle aches.

CAPSICUM FRUTESCENS FRUIT EXTRACT

This fruit is a member of the nightshade family that is native to Central and South America. Its main ingredient, capsaicin, is the most studied and well-documented part of the plant. Decades ago, the FDA approved capsicum frutescens as a pain reliever that is used in many over-the-counter arthritis and muscle cream formulas today.

METHYSULFONYLMETHANE (MSM)

Methylsulfonylmethane, also known as MSM, is a naturally occurring sulfur compound found in small amounts in every cell of the body and is necessary for healthy cells. (Please note: this compound is not the same as sulfa, an anti-bacterial agent. People with sulfa related allergies will not experience the same reaction to MSM).

When used topically, MSM aids in absorption into the skin, it carries along with it water-based ingredients including beneficial herbs. It also helps attract water-based fluids to the affected area, which in turn helps increase lubrication.

ARNICA MONTANA FLOWER EXTRACT

Arnica Montana is native to the mountains of some regions in Europe and grows in nutrient-poor soil. Due to the spread of agriculture, it is becoming rare in the northern mountains. It has a large, yellow blossom that resembles a daisy. It is grown in herb gardens today and has been used as a medicinal plant for thousands of years.

It is known to have been used by the Romans as early as 180 B.C. to soothe muscle spasms, aches and pains, aching joints, as well as to ease the pain of broken bones.

Research has found that when Arnica Montana is used in gel at 50% concentration, it can have the same pain relieving effect as a five percent ibuprofen gel for treating the pain of osteoarthritis.

CORIANDER FRUIT OIL (CORIANDRUM SATIVUM)

The word Coriander is derived from the French word “cariandre.” In Spanish, Coriander is also known as cilantro derived from cariadrum. Coriander seeds are said to have been found in the tomb of Ramses II and Tutakhamen. In 1670, the plant was brought by the British colonies into North America. It has been used for muscle and joint pain such as neuralgia and rheumatism.

Coriander oil contains anti-spasmodic and anti-inflammatory properties, which help to promote circulation while simultaneously relieving stiffness. Because of its strong antibacterial and restorative properties, Coriander Oil is a frequent component in herbal remedies.

CORNFLOWER (BLUEBOTTLE) EXTRACT (CENTAUREA CYANUS)

The bright blue Cornflower plant, also referred to as "Bluebottle”, has historically been used for its amazing medicinal properties. This common North American wildflower promotes good health in numerous ways. Its extract has traditionally been used to help reduce swelling and joint pain, curb anxiety and soothe irritated skin.

GERMAN CHAMOMILE (CHAMOMILLA RECUTITA) EXTRACT

German chamomile extract has traditionally been used to treat many disorders, including fibromyalgia and bacterial skin diseases. Additionally, it has been used by patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation to treat and prevent swelling.

LIMETREE EXTRACT LINDEN (TILIA SYLVESTRIS EXTRACT)

Linden trees are commonly found beautifying city streets with their feature characteristic heart-shaped leaves adorned with charming flowers. But the plant is as useful as it is beautiful, the flowers contain tannins, oils and mucilage, which all have been documented as having healing and soothing abilities for various ailments. The extracts from its flowers and bark are also used in herbal remedies throughout Europe. Its beneficial effects include antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anxiety-reducing properties.

MARIGOLD EXTRACT (CALENDULA OFFICINALIS EXTRACT)

Marigolds have been grown in the gardens of Europe since the 12th century. By the 14th century, many had learned of its many and varied “magical powers.” During the American Civil War and World War I, marigolds were used to prevent wounds from getting infected. The blooms were made into either a poultice or infused into oils for application to the wounds. Only the flower heads of marigolds are used medicinally. They are well known for their wound healing and antiseptic properties, but modern herbalists have found a wide variety of uses for them, including: an alternative analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, astringent, bactericide, carminative, depurative, diuretic, emmenagogue, stomachic, styptic, and tonic.

NETTLE EXTRACT (LAMIUM ALBUM)

White nettle has been used for centuries as a vasoconstrictor, effectively reducing excessive blood flow. It can also be helpful to reduce vericose veins. It can be used internally for urinary and bladder problems. There are also applications for female and male reproductive issues.

ROMAN CHAMOMILE (ANTHEMIS NOBILIS) OIL

The chemicals extracted from Roman chamomile's flower head are known for anti-inflammatory properties and muscle relaxation. Roman chamomile has also been used historically to treat rheumatic disorders. It has been discovered that when it is used in conjunction with other medicinal herbs, Roman chamomile extract can be a powerful aid.

ST. JOHN'S WORT (HYPERICUM PERFORATUM)

An herb that has been in use as far back as ancient Greece, St. John's Wort is well-established as an herbal medicine. With internal applications to address mental health and even menopause, it has wide-ranging benefits. In a topical application, St. John's Wort is used to help heal wounds as well as bruises and muscle pain.

WITCH HAZEL EXTRACT

The leaf, bark, and even the twigs of the Witch Hazel plant are all used for a variety of medicinal purposes. When applied topically, Witch Hazel has been proven to relieve itching, inflammation, varicose veins, minor burns and bruises. Tannins, (Witch Hazel extract's active chemicals), have been used for hundreds of years to reduce swelling, fight bacteria, and help repair skin damage.

WILLOW BARK EXTRACT (SALIX ALBA)

Willow Bark Extract has been recognized throughout history because of its medicinal properties similar to aspirin. Its use as a reliable pain reliever dates back to the time of Hipprocrates. Those who suffer from muscle pain,  headaches, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and lower back pain and a number of other painful ailments have relied upon Willow Bark Extract for hundreds of years.

Pain sufferers are once again turning to the natural sources of salicin to avoid the potentially harmful side effects of synthetic aspirin. We use only natural Willow Bark (Salix Alba).

ASCORBYL (VITAMIN C) PALMITATE

A fat-soluble form of Vitamin C (ascorbyl palmitate), Vitamin C ester has numerous benefits for skincare and as a potent antioxidant. When applied topically Vitamin C moisturizes, softens skin and helps promote collagen synthesis.

DIRECTIONS FOR BEST USE TO ACHIEVE QUICK RELIEF:

Apply thin coats more frequently instead of a large amount at one time.

Pressure points – in addition to the area in discomfort, apply to the pressure point below and above the discomfort.

If relief is not felt within 5 minutes, re-apply immediately. Re-apply until you feel relief, discomfort is different for each individual.

For a joint, such as a knee, ankle, or in the foot - apply all the way around the joint and at least one or two inches above and below the joint.

For feet - cover the area evenly with a thin coat plus apply to the ankle to ensure full coverage.

For a large area such as the legs - apply in a circular motion traveling just outside the affected area to make sure you have achieved full coverage.

SHOULD I BE CONCERNED IF MY FOOT & LEG COMFORT CREAM WAS EXPOSED TO VERY HOT OR VERY COLD TEMPERATURES DURING DELIVERY?

Though long periods of extreme temperatures will eventually degrade the product, the vigorous stability testing we put our products through indicate that a day or weekend in the mail should not make a noticeable difference. A couple of tips:

• If your product seems to be less viscous meaning less thick and creamy, it should return to normal after returning to room temperature.
• If your product seems mottled or clumpy it may have been exposed to extreme cold, allow it to return to room temperature and shake vigorously. This should allow it to return to normal.

In both cases, the ingredients effectiveness will not be diminished.

AFTER I USED FOOT & LEG COMFORT, I NOTICED A RASH OR OTHER TYPE OF ALLERGIC REACTION. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
