Full quantitative formula is on the pack.
Kava
Piper methysticum
Traditionally
Grown across the Pacific, kava has a long place in community and herbal traditions. In wellness writing it is often discussed for its calming plant chemistry — that heritage is about the plant’s story, not a promise about how this cream works in your body.
In this cream
Here, kava extract is one of the seven actives in a topical cream traditionally used in Western herbal medicine to relieve muscle soreness and mild joint pain, and to help relieve symptoms of muscle sprain. This page does not present kava for anxiety, sleep, or any disease. Always follow the pack.

Traditionally
Also known as frankincense resin, Boswellia has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic and other herbal traditions, often spoken of in the context of everyday joint comfort and mobility support in traditional practice.

It is one of the essential oils on the approved label for this cream. External use only — the same listed traditional use as the rest of the formula.
Rosemary oil
Salvia rosmarinus
Traditionally
Rosemary has been cultivated for centuries around the Mediterranean. In herbal and household tradition it shows up in aromatic baths, hair rinses, and muscle rubs — valued for its bright, herbaceous scent and a reputation for waking up tired limbs after work or sport.
