Designed to become a go-to resource to combat discomfort in an individual’s feet and legs, Foot and Leg Comfort Cream is a safe, topical option to soothe and relax the lower extremities. Many people suffer from pain in their feet and legs, yet never look for a solution from this discomfort. BLUESPRING’s trial size Foot and Leg Comfort Cream allows enough product in the jar for you to see the powerful effects it can have on your most active muscles.

The constant flow of blood from the upper body to one’s feet and legs is pivotal to an individual’s health. Proper blood circulation is crucial, because if it slows, both legs, muscles, and feet will not be provided with the healthy cells and nutrients they need to function appropriately. If plaque collects in your arteries and narrows the passageways from lack of blood flow, you may suffer from peripheral artery disease. If you believe this may apply to you, you may notice some or all of these symptoms:

• Cold toes
• Numbness in your legs and/or feet
• Limp sensation in the legs
• Knee or leg aches
• Muscle cramps
• Muscle spasms

The cold sensation associated with peripheral artery disease is typically felt in the toes because that is the furthest point from your heart. The more the arterial walls narrow, the more difficult it becomes for the heart to pump blood all the way to your toes. This is why your feet may feel cold even when it is warm in your surrounding environment. If you notice these symptoms you should consult your doctor for further diagnosis and treatment.

Peripheral artery disease can be caused by a variety of factors, including an unhealthy diet, lack of exercise, smoking cigarettes, and diabetes. When it occurs in people over the age of 40 or 50, it is often the result of a lifetime of unhealthy habits or a side effect of diabetes. When your feet or legs are uncomfortable, your entire life will be uncomfortable. Since you depend on this part of your body to carry you through the motions of daily life, any discomfort can interfere with your mobility. If your skin is dry or otherwise irritated, it can make wearing long pants or going out in the sunshine unbearable. From cooking dinner to playing with your grandchildren, playing golf or going on vacation, everything you do depends on healthy legs and feet.

The Foot and Leg Comfort Cream 1 oz. jar is easy to apply. Simply rub it over your skin and wait for relief to set in. There are no known negative side effects, so you can use this cream frequently with peace of mind. Many of our customers report that using it before bedtime helps them sleep better.

WHAT INGREDIENTS ARE IN FOOT AND LEG COMFORT BY BLUESPRING?

The astounding effectiveness of Foot and Leg Comfort is due to the unique blend of our 19 natural ingredients. All ingredients are safe for use by diabetics.

ALOE BARBADENSIS LEAF (WHOLE LEAF ALOE VERA)

Since the ancient Egyptian times, Aloe Vera has been used in herbal medicines all over the world for its beautifying and healing properties.

In modern times, research has determined that Aloe Vera is a more effective anti-inflammatory than 1% hydrocortisone cream.

BLUESPRING uses only 100% whole leave Aloe Vera in all of our formulas.

EMU OIL

Emu Oil is nature’s miracle oil. Extracted from the Emu Bird, the oil contains extraordinary medicinal properties that have been used for thousands of years by the Australian Aborigines. 

A study done on Emu Oil by the Forsyth Institute in Boston, Massachusettes found that Emu Oil contains anti-inflammatory properties.

Emus are raised drug free without any steroids, antibiotics or growth hormones. The oil is quick absorbing, making it non-greasy and it does not clog pores (non-comedogenic). It does not contain any irritating substances (Hypo-allergenic) and is almost completely odorless.

Though the American FDA only approves Emu Oil only as a moisturizer, studies have been done around the world on the therapeutic effects of Emu oil.

BLUESPRING uses only a “Grade A” certified Emu Oil that is not over-refined. Over-refining can detract from the nutrients that make the oil work so well.

MENTHOL

BLUESPRING uses Menthol that is naturally derived from the peppermint plant and has a slight peppermint smell. When used topically, it is approved by the FDA as a pain reliever when used at certain levels.

When applied to the skin, Menthol produces a cooling sensation by stimulating the body’s cold receptors. Additionally, Menthol can be used as a mild anesthetic to treat skin irritation, sunburn and muscle aches.

METHYSULFONYLMETHANE (MSM)

Methylsulfonylmethane, also known as MSM, is a naturally occurring sulfur compound found in small amounts in every cell of the body and is necessary for healthy cells. (Please note: this compound is not the same as sulfa, an anti-bacterial agent. People with sulfa related allergies will not experience the same reaction to MSM).

When used topically, MSM aids in absorption into the skin, it carries along with it water-based ingredients including beneficial herbs. It also helps attract water-based fluids to the affected area, which in turn helps increase lubrication.

ARNICA MONTANA FLOWER EXTRACT

Arnica Montana is native to the mountains of some regions in Europe and grows in nutrient-poor soil. Due to the spread of agriculture, it is becoming rare in the northern mountains. It has a large, yellow blossom that resembles a daisy. It is grown in herb gardens today and has been used as a medicinal plant for thousands of years.

It is known to have been used by the Romans as early as 180 B.C. to soothe muscle spasms, aches and pains, aching joints, as well as to ease the pain of broken bones.

Research has found that when Arnica Montana is used in gel at 50% concentration, it can have the same pain relieving effect as a five percent ibuprofen gel for treating the pain of osteoarthritis.

CAPSICUM FRUTESCENS FRUIT EXTRACT

This fruit is a member of the nightshade family that is native to Central and South America. Its main ingredient, capsaicin, is the most studied and well-documented part of the plant. Over 20 years ago, the FDA approved capsicum frutescens as a pain reliever that is used in many over-the-counter arthritis and muscle cream formulas today.

NETTLE EXTRACT (URTICA DIOCA)

Stinging nettle is considered by many to be a bothersome pest, but nevertheless, nettle has been used since ancient times as a source of food, fiber, and medicinal preparations.  Roman soldiers are said to have brought their own nettle to the British Isles to treat tired, painful legs on long marches in the cold and wet climate by urtification, thus stimulating the circulation.

Modern medicinal uses of nettle are not much different than that of the past.  Clinical studies have researched its use in treating many medical conditions, including allergic rhinitis, rheumatic complaints, eczema, anemia, bleeding (both internally and externally), and acute arthritis and in some cases it has been used as a substitute for traditional painkillers.

CORIANDER FRUIT OIL (CORIANDRUM SATIVUM)

The word Coriander is derived from the French word “cariandre.” In Spanish, Coriander is also known as cilantro derived from cariadrum. Coriander seeds are said to have been found in the tomb of Ramses II and Tutakhamen. In 1670, the plant was brought by the British colonies into North America. It has been used for muscle and joint pain such as neuralgia and rheumatism.

Coriander oil contains anti-spasmodic and anti-inflammatory properties, which help to promote circulation while simultaneously relieving stiffness. Because of its strong antibacterial and restorative properties, Coriander Oil is a frequent component in herbal remedies.

MARIGOLD EXTRACT (CALENDULA OFFICINALIS EXTRACT)

Marigolds have been grown in the gardens of Europe since the 12^th century. By the 14^th century, many had learned of its many and varied “magical powers.” During the American Civil War and World War I, marigolds were used to prevent wounds from getting infected. The blooms were made into either a poultice or infused into oils for application to the wounds. Only the flower heads of marigolds are used medicinally. They are well known for their wound healing and antiseptic properties, but modern herbalists have found a wide variety of uses for them, including: an alternative analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, astringent, bactericide, carminative, depurative, diuretic, emmenagogue, stomachic, styptic, and tonic.

LIMETREE EXTRACT LINDEN (TILIA SYLVESTRIS EXTRACT)

Linden trees are commonly found beautifying city streets with their feature characteristic heart-shaped leaves adorned with charming flowers. But the plant is as useful as it is beautiful, the flowers contain tannins, oils and mucilage, which all have been documented as having healing and soothing abilities for various ailments. The extracts from its flowers and bark are also used in herbal remedies throughout Europe. Its beneficial effects include antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anxiety-reducing properties.

CORNFLOWER (BLUEBOTTLE) EXTRACT (CENTAUREA CYANUS)

The bright blue Cornflower plant, also referred to as "Bluebottle”, has historically been used for its amazing medicinal properties. This common North American wildflower promotes good health in numerous ways. Its extract has traditionally been used to help reduce swelling and joint pain, curb anxiety and soothe irritated skin.

WITCH HAZEL EXTRACT

The leaf, bark, and even the twigs of the Witch Hazel plant are all used for a variety of medicinal purposes. When applied topically, Witch Hazel has been proven to relieve itching, inflammation, varicose veins, minor burns and bruises. Tannins, (Witch Hazel extract's active chemicals), have been used for hundreds of years to reduce swelling, fight bacteria, and help repair skin damage.

WILLOW BARK EXTRACT (SALIX ALBA)

Willow Bark Extract has been recognized throughout history because of its medicinal properties similar to aspirin. Its use as a reliable pain reliever dates back to the time of Hipprocrates. Those who suffer from muscle pain,  headaches, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and lower back pain and a number of other painful ailments have relied upon Willow Bark Extract for hundreds of years.

Pain sufferers are once again turning to the natural sources of salicin to avoid the potentially harmful side effects of synthetic aspirin. BLUESPRING uses only natural Willow Bark (Salix Alba).

ASCORBYL (VITAMIN C) PALMITATE

A fat-soluble form of Vitamin C (ascorbyl palmitate), Vitamin C ester has numerous benefits for skincare and as a potent antioxidant. When applied topically Vitamin C moisturizes, softens skin and helps promote collagen synthesis.
