Traumastop balm for bruises and sprains, 100 ml - Dr.Retter

Product Overview

Dr.Retter “PÄÄSTERÕNGAS” TRAVMOSTOP cream-balm 100 ml is a topical product for joints and muscles, usually chosen after bumps, bruises, sprains or overexertion, when the area feels tender, puffy or tense. Its role is not to mask the sensation alone, but to create a warming‑cooling local effect while helping the skin and underlying tissues recover after minor everyday knocks and strain.

Key Ingredients and Their Roles

The formula combines several well‑known actives with different roles:

• Arnica extract – traditionally used in creams for bruised and overworked areas; valued for its soothing effect and for helping the skin look calmer as the area recovers.
• Spongilla extract – derived from freshwater sponge, often included in balm formulas for areas with sluggish local circulation; it gently stimulates the skin surface, creating a warming sensation and making the area feel less heavy.
• Adam’s root extract – a traditional botanical used in rubs for muscles and joints, especially when stiffness follows physical effort.
• Fir oil – adds an aromatic warming note.
• Menthol – brings an initial cooling feel.

These sensations can make the application feel more effective and encourage massage of the area, which also helps local microcirculation.

Special Combination of Mumio and Niacinamide

What makes this cream‑balm interesting is the combination of plant extracts with mumio and niacinamide. Mumio is a mineral‑rich natural substance long used in traditional preparations for skin renewal. Niacinamide, better known from skincare, helps maintain the skin barrier and improves the overall condition of the surface. In a product like this, these ingredients help the balm feel less like a simple rub and more like a skin‑conditioning recovery cream for active people, sports use, or the occasional household mishap.

How to Use and Precautions

This type of product suits adults who want something to massage into a sore, bruised or overworked spot after exercise, gardening, long walks or accidental knocks.

Because the formula includes locally stimulating ingredients such as spongilla, fir oil and menthol, start with a small amount and assess skin response first. Avoid the eye area, mucous membranes and broken skin, and wash hands after use. If your skin is very sensitive, or if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or using it for a child, it is sensible to ask a healthcare professional before applying regularly.
