Puresport1000mg Muscle & Joint Balm | 50ml | Infused with Lavender, Lemongrass, Witch Hazel, Wintergreen & Peppermint | Promote Faster Recovery

This was an integral part of my recovery regime when training for my first marathon. Does it REALLY do anything for my muscles? Honestly, I don’t know, but I enjoyed massaging with this as it wasn’t too greasy and had a nice scent. I think I felt better for it. Used it in combination well with the Puresport blade (can’t remember the name of it).

It may be a mistake to market this squarely with a sports' audience in mind as of course non-active people can experience muscle and joint pain. Puresport balm contains CBD as an active ingredient along with a range of naturals - witch-hazel, lemongrass, lavender, wintergreen, peppermint and shea butter.The shea butter here is very hydrating and taken as a whole the ingredients actually smell attractive - herbal with a menthol undertone. The balm is easy to apply and absorbs well. The packaging is attractive and the 50ml of balm is in a screw topped amber glass pot.That said, though the box I received was sealed the paper strip across the lid and body of the glass jar was strangely broken. One of the pics in the listing shows a branded white plastic spatula being used to remove the balm from the pot, suggesting this applicator tool is included. But certainly in the pack I received - that's Best Before the end of October 2025 - this was absent. I don't know whether it ought to be included or not.This balm, made in the Czech Republic, can be applied up to 3 times a day. The product seems good. The price, though it seems steep, is at present cheaper than purchasing direct from Puresport. Either way, this balm is effective at soothing muscular and joint discomfort - and it's pleasant to use. 4 stars from me.

Super happy with this. Used post long runs on Quads and calf's.

I was always sceptical about things like this but after training for London marathon this stuff is worth it’s weight in gold. Helps with niggles and aches and more importantly recovery.

First of all I am going to mention that my 'pot' of balm seal was already opened on delivery.I was not going to use it, but when I looked inside it did look untouched.I suffer really bad lower back pain, and nothing usually eases the pain apart from prescription medication.I decided to try this on my back.I first noticed it was very greasy, and then the smell I can say was not pleasant. It smells like a citronella candle.To say I wasn't happy with the broken seal, the excessive grease and the unpleasant smell, this actually brought me some relief for a few hours to be perfectly fair.I wasn't in a particular positive mindset for this to work at first with all the negatives, so highly doubt that it had a 'placebo' effect.This did bring me some relief, but you have to weigh up whether the pain is bad enough to rub this greasy unpleasant smelling balm on you, or put up with the pain.My pain is crippling sometimes, and I've chosen to re-use this balm as the positive effects outweigh the negatives.

Not really helped with my shoulder arthritis pain and trapped nerve

While I'd been hearing lots about the benefits of CBD products for a long time, I'd never had the chance to actually check them out myself. With muscles sore after a workout I though it'd be a great time to change that.Application of the balm is more difficult that it potentially could be - the balm is quite stiff in nature which makes it a little difficult to move around and this is made worse by the small hole in the top of the pot making it difficult to access. The smell is difficult to describe - it is quite strong and generated mixed feelings with people I asked. In terms of effectiveness, it wasn't in my experience as good as my usual go to balm product - both in terms of strength of pain relief or how long it lasted.Overall then this product was a little bit of a disappointment - while it did have some effect, I wasn't sold on the benefits or how easy it was to apply.

Amazing product from amazing people, if your ever curious but cautious go have a listen to the folks at puresport speakSlap it on everywhere you will thank me
