- Eucalyptus Oil - Local Anaesthetic & Cooling Effect
CERBERUS SubZero Muscle Rub contains a massive 15% of Camphor, 15% of Methyl Salicylate, 15% Eucalyptus Oil and 5% Menthol. Camphor has been shown to increase blood circulation and has anti-inflammatory properties. Methyl Salicylate is closely related to aspirin and has analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties, while menthol works by creating a topical cooling action that desensitizes local nociceptors to offer an analgesic effect. Eucalyptus oil also has a cooling effect similar to menthol's anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, and can have analgesic effects in muscles and joints. A 2015 clinical review found that eucalyptus oil has promise in treating ailments like arthritis and wounds as well as the flu.
SubZero has been designed to give you a cooling sensation with methyl salicylate, menthol, eucalyptus oil and peppermint oil all acting as cooling agents. These are counter-irritants, which means the cooling feeling on the skin distracts you from feeling the aches/pains deeper in your muscles, joints and tendons by desensitising the nerve endings.
