Arkopharma Arkoessentiel Chinese Balm with Essential Oils is a camphor massage balm inspired by traditional Chinese balms, in a small 30ml jar. Massaged into the skin, it brings a feeling of local or overall well-being that soothes, relaxes and comforts. Its rich blend of nine pure and natural essential oils gives it a warm, spicy and minty scent.

Key Benefits

  • Massage comfort: a balm to massage into tense shoulders, neck, back or legs.
  • Well-being: soothes, relaxes and comforts through massage.
  • Nine essential oils: botanically and biochemically defined, pure and natural.
  • Warm, spicy scent: cinnamon, clove and ginger meet field mint and eucalyptus.
  • Pocket jar: a 30ml jar to keep at home, at the office or in a sports bag.

Key Ingredients

Camphor gives this balm its warming, camphor-rich character. The essential oils are Chinese cinnamon, clove, eucalyptus radiata, savory-leaf thyme, cajeput, ylang-ylang, ginger, rosemary cineole and field mint, set in a smooth paraffin and wax base that melts on contact with the skin.
