Soothing, emollient, restorative, refreshing and eutrophic
1st action: anesthetic
The essential oil of peppermint is refreshing and anesthetic. When applied to the skin it causes an initial vasoconstriction followed by a pronounced vasodilation with rubefacient effect and causes local anesthesia in part due to the action on the cold receptors.
2nd action: vasotonic
Centella asiatica contains a series of pentacyclic triterpenoids generically called centelloids produced as secondary metabolites.
Centelloids act on the venous connective tissue preventing and treating venous insufficiency and therefore, swelling and heaviness in the legs and ankles that derive from it, but also pain in the veins and night cramps.
Moreover, Centella extract is also able to accelerate the healing of wounds, skin lesions and first and second degree burns. Thanks to its beneficial properties on blood vessels and connective tissue, it can also be useful in the treatment of cellulite and stretch marks.
3rd action: lymphatic drainage
Aescin is a mixture of saponins with anti-inflammatory, vasoprotective and vasoconstrictive activity.
In particular, beta-escin is considered the main molecule responsible for the vasoprotective effects.
Aescina intervenes at various levels:
- Anti-edematous properties
Aescin prevents and reduces edema. The anti-edematous effect is linked to a selective vascular permeability, which causes an increase in venous and arterial tone. Aescin reduces capillary fragility so it doesn’t let any liquid infiltration in the tissue interstitium (first cause of edema).
- Anti-inflammatory properties
At the same time, it also reduces the adherence of neutrophils to the endothelium, thus avoiding a new hypoxia.
- Venotonic properties
It is exerted by stimulating prostaglandin F2alpha in human veins.
Coumarin contained in sweet clover has diuretic and fluidizing properties.
Bromelain is indicated in the treatment of various sports injuries such as direct trauma (contusions) and indirect traumas (contractures, strains and tears).
The effect of pain reduction is due to the ability of Bromelain to reduce tissue inflammation and edema.
4th action: anti-inflammatory
Mountain Arnica has anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving and anti-aging properties.
Hamamelis owes much of its therapeutic activity to the presence of large quantities of tannins and proanthocyanidins. It carries out anti-inflammatory, antioxidant actions and it has a positive tonic effect on the subcutaneous vessels.
5th action: moisturizing, soothing and healing
Sweet Almond Oil has an emollient action.
Jojoba oil has a moisturizing and elasticizing action, which also fights peeling skin.
Rice oil has a significant amount of phytosterols with antioxidant properties.
Hemp oil is characterized by a high content of unsaturated fatty acids with a rehydrating action.
Sweet clover has astringent properties.
Bromelain has a keratolytic action and is effective in accelerating cicatrization.
