Speedy Recovery for Ultra Marathon Runner and Cyclist

MJ Assist®

Whether from a long day on your hands and knees in the garden, a training run for your upcoming 10K race, or keeping pace with your teenagers on a weekend mountain hike, we all experience occasional muscle and joint discomfort associated with today's active lifestyles. As we age, our bodies don't seem to respond the same way they did when younger, and we may experience muscle and joint discomfort more frequently. Many of the over-the-counter and prescription pharmaceutical solutions for muscle and joint discomfort can be accompanied by negative side effects such as stomach discomfort resulting from the inhibition of the COX-1 enzyme which protects the stomach's lining. MJ Assist® is an all-natural alternative for temporary easing of muscle and joint discomfort. MJ Assist's fast-acting formula is made with safe and gentle therapeutic-grade essential oils that support your body's response to physical activity without harmful side effects.



Deep Blue® Roll On

According to recent studies, more than half of us are sufferers of ongoing discomfort. Deep Blue® is dōTERRA®'s soothing solution to this challenge. Wintergreen, camphor, peppermint, blue tansy, blue chamomile, helichrysum and osmanthus work together to ease achy joints and sore muscles. Its effects are deep and penetrating with sustained results. Once gently rubbed into the area of discomfort, Deep Blue's cool therapeutic benefit will be felt almost immediately. For topical use only. Packaged for convenient application in a roll-on bottle. For topical use.

Other athletes, cyclists, tri-athletes, marathon runners etc. use the doTERRA oils in their training program as well as during competitions.

Here is a testimonial from an Ultra Marathon Runner and Cyclist who used the dōTERRA products to recover quickly from his 100 mile competition.  Usually it took weeks to recover but this avid marathon runner and cyclists was up and going within two days.

"So how did the dōTERRA oils help me?  My blisters and tendinitis, with continued application of essential oils healed. I returned to work with little ill effect on Monday, and my knees hardly bothered me at all.  In fact, on Tuesday, I was headed down to Moab for a 100 mile mountain bike ride on the White Rim Trail with some college friends – to unwind.  My leg muscles were still fatigued, but I barely noticed the monster blisters and sore knees I had suffered from three days earlier.


I plan on continuing to use dōTERRA oils for these ailments and others for many miles to come!”
