Soothing Workout Recovery Topicals

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

J.R. Watkins Launched the Cooling Line to Provide Pain Relief

— January 26, 2021 — Lifestyle
As many consumers strive towards a more healthy lifestyle in light of the new year, J.R. Watkins took the occasion to launch a range of recovery products as a part of The Cooling Line to help them recover after working out.

The line features four key products, all of which feature menthol to provide instant pain relief and soothe sore muscles. This includes a Menthol Pain Relief Gel, Menthol Spray, Menthol Roll On, and a 7.5% Menthol Patch—which is the highest percentage natural menthol patch that's currently available on the market. All of the topicals can be applied directly to sore muscles and other aches and pains, helping users to speed up the recovery process so that they can return to their routine more quickly.

J.R. Watkins also unveiled an addition recovery line that features natural magnesium as a key ingredient, which similarly works to reduce pain, while also promoting a more restful sleep.
