Prossage Warming Massage Oil 8 oz bottle

$54.95

Description

Friction-Activated Heat: The oil is chemically formulated to produce a deep, penetrating heat when friction is applied to the skin. This warming effect helps to soften connective tissue and increase blood flow to the area.
"Tacky" Texture (Controlled Glide): Unlike standard massage oils that are designed to be slippery, Prossage is viscous and tacky. It provides the necessary "drag" or grip that allows a therapist to hook into deep layers of muscle and fascia without sliding off.
Natural Ingredient Profile: The formula is 100% natural and typically includes:
- Menthol: The active ingredient that stimulates the warming sensation.
- Safflower Seed Oil: The base carrier oil.
- Lanolin: Provides the tackiness/stickiness needed for deep tissue work.
- Lavender Oil: Adds a soothing scent.
Area-Specific Formulation: It is designed as a spot-treatment product, not an all-over body oil. It is meant to be used only on specific areas of restriction or pain.
Allergen-Conscious: The formula is generally Nut Oil-Free, Paraben-Free, and Gluten-Free.

Deep Tissue & Myofascial Release: The primary use is for techniques that require deep pressure. The heat softens the fascia (connective tissue), while the tacky grip allows the therapist to strip out knots and adhesions effectively.
Orthopedic Treatment: Used to treat specific musculoskeletal issues such as frozen shoulder, tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and chronic back pain.
Increasing Range of Motion: By warming up stiff ligaments and tendons, it helps restore mobility in restricted joints before stretching or mobilization exercises.
Trigger Point Therapy: The warming sensation helps desensitize painful trigger points, allowing the therapist to apply the necessary pressure to release them with less discomfort to the patient.
Pain Management: Helps break the "pain-spasm-pain" cycle by increasing local circulation and relaxing tight muscles that are guarding an injury.
