When the body feels the "bull," call in the Matador.

Matador is our signature high-performance muscle salve, engineered for the athlete, the gardener, and anyone pushing their physical limits. This "Fire and Ice" formula provides a simultaneous warming and cooling sensation that penetrates deep into the tissues to soothe over-exerted muscles and support joint mobility.

Whether you’re recovering from a heavy lift, a long day on the farm, or repetitive strain, Matador is the recovery tool of champions.

Why You’ll Love It:

  • The "Fire & Ice" Effect: A robust, aromatic blend that delivers a dual-action sensation—cooling the surface while warming the deep tissue to encourage circulation and recovery.

  • Targeted Circulation: Infused with Cayenne Pepper, Matador acts as a thermogenic driver, bringing blood flow to stagnant areas and easing localized physical tension.

  • Pro-Grade Potency: Similar in intensity to the famous "red" muscle balms, but hand-crafted with the purity of farm-grown ingredients.

  • Goes Anywhere: Packaged in a convenient 1oz tin that fits in a gym bag, pocket, or hiking pack. A little goes a long way—one pea-sized amount covers a major muscle group.


How We Use It

Massage a small amount into the affected area—shoulders, knees, lower back, or wrists—as needed. For maximum benefit, use post-workout or before bed to support the body’s natural repair cycle.

FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY.
