Sore Muscle Salve

Fat and the Moon’s Sore Muscle Salve is just the thing when you’re sore from a tough workout or dealing with a stubborn knot in your shoulder. Made to warm, soothe, and loosen up tired muscles, it blends circulation-boosting cayenne, tension-relieving St. John’s wort, and relaxing tobacco. Clove and vetiver essential oils add extra warmth and an earthy, grounding scent.

Fat and the Moon likes to think of themselves as minimal maximalists: if they make something, grow something, or buy something, they want it to serve at its maximum potential. The Sore Muscle Salve is a perfect example—simple, effective, and thoughtfully crafted with non-toxic ingredients.
