Muscle Support & Joint Pain
FAQs
What is muscle and joint pain? And what causes it?
Hard sports play and even random clumsiness can sometimes lead to muscle or joint pain.
Joint pain manifests in a range of different ways.
Our knees are likely the most frequently damaged joint, and they are particularly susceptible when bearing a lot of weight.
When an injured joint suddenly becomes painful again, that could mean that the thin layer of tissue around the joint and tendons may be inflamed. Sometimes an icepack, and rest can help with that.
Occasionally, the skin over a joint can become hot and red, and there may be pain in a repeated type pattern.
There are also conditions which cause pain in multiple joints, including various types of arthritis.
When it comes to your muscles, particularly as you age, these will need more nutritional support, as well as targeted exercise, so that movement does not hurt.
What sorts of remedies help with muscle recovery and sore joints?
Devils Claw: We provide a traditional herbal remedy used for the relief of backache, rheumatic or muscular pain and general pains in the muscles and joints. This is based on traditional use only. Available in two different sizes: 50 and 100 capsules.
Sigesbeckia extract: Similar to Devil’s claw, this product is a herbal medicinal remedy used for the relief of backache, minor sports injuries, rheumatic or muscle pains and general aches and pains in the muscles and joints.
Arnica: This flower is available in a liquid extract and is applied to the skin for symptomatic relief of muscular and rheumatic pain. Based on traditional use only.
What can I use to support my muscles?
Making sure that we properly look after our muscles, not just after exercise but also during your usual daily routine, can help ease some muscle and joint soreness.
There are many different things we can do to look after our muscles, ranging from maintaining a healthy diet and regular stretching, to using essential oils and taking specific vitamins and supplements like Puressential Muscle & Joints Roller

What is connective tissue in the body?
Connective tissue is a gel-like substance made up of cells and fibres, which supports and protects other tissue and organs in the body. Bone, cartilage, fat, blood and lymphatic tissues are all types of connective tissue. Eating well, providing your body with a range of vitamins, and generally making healthier lifestyle choices can all help support your connective tissue.
Supplements which can help to maintain healthy connective tissue, include:
LQ Collagen Joint Care Cherry Flavoured Powder. Containing copper which contributes the to the maintenance of normal connective tissue, all you need to do is add to water and mix and your cherry flavoured supplement is ready!
Optima Healthcare Musselflex Green Lipped Mussel Extract contains manganese which contributes to the normal function of connective tissue.
