Chest Rub
Tired of winter bugs? Me too.
Enter our three natural vapour chest rubs to help ease the burden of sickness this winter, alleviating the congestion and discomfort experienced from the common cold, flu, fever, coughs, COVID-19 and infection. They support the respiratory and immune systems with the help of active ingredients in the essential oil blends, known for their antibacterial, antiviral, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties.
- For babies - for 3 months +
- For kids - for 2 years +
- For adults - for 10 years +
All formulas are safely and carefully considered and utilise the most effective oils for the intended age group instead of adopting a one-size-fits-all approach.
For example, the kid's formula is designed in line with current safety recommendations regarding components menthol and 1,8 cineole, which have recorded adverse reactions associated with children under 5. These constituents are in high percentages in oils such as eucalyptus and peppermint, so we have opted for safer, alternative oils in our final product for children.
Our adult formula was formulated with COVID-19 in mind and helps with mental fatigue/brain fog, nausea, coughing, and headaches related to congestion. Consequently, this formula can increase alertness, so please be aware of this if you are trying to sleep!
Packaged in a 30g glass amber jar.

APPLICATION
Apply externally on the chest, neck, throat, and/or back as often as required to support the immune system and respiratory health when under threat.
For adults (only!), alternatively, add 1/4 tsp of the formula to boiling water in a ceramic bowl and leave for a minute on a counter before closing your eyes and putting your face over the bowl. If the steam temperature is comfortable for your face, put the towel over your head and breathe. Relax and breathe for a minute or two. You might cough right away—that's fine. You might want to take your head out, blow your nose to clear it and go back under the towel. You want to clear your sinuses and lungs.
