Sore muscles are common and may involve more than one muscle at the same time, and there are many reasons why our muscles ache from time to time. Whatever the cause, it always hurts, and that is the reason Herbal Extracts Plus has combined two all-natural medicinal extracts in an herbal product called Support for Muscle Pain. Willow Bark and Boswellia are superior herbal supplements that have demonstrated effective pain and inflammation relief over many centuries. Heavy exercise, minor injury, fatigue, strain and inflammation can certainly “cramp” our lifestyles when minor muscular aches and pains strike, but relief is on the way with the healthy plant extracts in Support for Muscle Pain!

Willow Bark has been employed for thousands of years as a reliable painkiller. It is used to relieve the pain of headaches, migraines, backache, nerve pain, menstrual cramps, toothache, muscle ache and the pain of minor injuries. The plant contains salicylic acid, which was first synthesized in 1838; and in 1899, the Bayer Company of Germany introduced a drug composed of a synthetic chemical compound, similar to the active compound in Willow Bark, and called it the "aspirin." Native Americans knew early on of the benefits of Willow Bark when they used it as a painkiller, and it is popular in alternative medicine because it does not produce the unpleasant side effects associated with aspirin. The analgesic actions of Willow Bark may be slower-acting than synthetic aspirin, but the results last longer, as the painkilling compounds remain at stable levels in the bloodstream longer (usually for several hours) than synthetic aspirin products. Unlike aspirin products, Willow Bark has no affect on blood platelets and does not increase bleeding, nor will it irritate the lining of the stomach, common side effects of aspirin.

Boswellia is said to be a particularly effective anti-inflammatory that has been used for centuries to relieve joint pain and improve mobility. New research confirms that the herb has been effective in relieving muscle pain and the joint pains and aches of arthritis, gout, rheumatism and osteoarthritis of the knee. Furthermore, it appears to be free of the effects commonly found in steroidal and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that are usually prescribed for these problems, but acts in the same way by suppressing the spread of inflamed tissue and preventing the breakdown of connective tissue. This would make it an extremely useful supplement to improve mobility, without the after-effects of gastric irritation. This is great news for those who look for pain-free mobility in their daily lives. (Click here for more information on Boswellia)
