Can the balm be used on children or during pregnancy?

The balm contains camphor, menthol, cajeput oil, clove and cinnamon, all of which are potent essential oils and extracts. The balm must not be used on children under 3. For older children and for pregnant and breastfeeding women, using products like this requires consulting a doctor first: camphor and menthol in high concentrations can cause unwanted reactions in children.

People with chronic skin conditions, an allergy to essential oils or who take certain medicines should also consult a specialist before use. This is not a mere formality: the balm's composition is quite concentrated, and individual reactions can vary considerably from person to person.

The balm is intended for external use only and is not a medicinal product. If redness, burning or other pronounced skin reactions occur, stop using it.
