What is Chinese Massage Oil?
Chinese Massage Oil is a specially formulated blend of herbal extracts and essential oils used to soothe sore muscles, improve circulation, and promote overall relaxation. Rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, these oils often contain ingredients like menthol, camphor, eucalyptus, and various herbal extracts known for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. While specific formulations vary, a common example is White Flower Embrocation Oil, a popular brand featuring wintergreen, menthol, camphor, eucalyptus oil, and lavender oil. It's typically applied topically and massaged into the affected area. The oil can be used by athletes for post-workout recovery, individuals experiencing muscle stiffness or pain, and those seeking a calming and therapeutic massage experience. It is designed for external use only and should not be ingested.
