L’arnica pour la récupération sportive
Arnica montana in every balm
Arnica, the mountain'srecovery plant.
Used for generations in mountain communities because people could feel the soothing and relieving effects of Arnica montana.
For generations, this bright yellow alpine flower has been applied to tired, bruised and overworked areas after long days in the mountains.
Arnica contains naturally occurring plant compounds known as sesquiterpene lactones. These compounds have been studied for their interaction with the inflammatory processes associated with tenderness, swelling and localised muscular discomfort.
Recovery Balm is made in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, where it is tried and tested in demanding mountain conditions. Arnica is infused into nourishing oils to create balms that support the muscles and joints to optimise performance.
Where it comes from
Grown and harvested in France.
Our arnica comes from a small organic farm and distillery in France, where the same family has grown and harvested plants for over 20 years. No fertilisers, no treatments — just sun, wind, and biodynamic farming that lets each plant grow at its own rhythm, distilled fresh daily.

Why it belongs in your pack
MASSAGE
The balm creates a smooth, controlled glide, allowing time to work slowly into calves, quads, shoulders and other heavily used areas.
SLEEP
Used before bed, the formula helps overworked muscles settle and creates the conditions for deeper rest and overnight recovery.
How it works
How arnica balm works for recovery and relief.
Arnica montana carries a group of compounds called sesquiterpene lactones — mainly helenalin — plus flavonoids and volatile oils. Applied to the skin, they cross the barrier and act locally: helenalin interferes with NF-κB, one of the main switches driving the inflammatory response, while circulation to the area increases.
No shortcuts. No synthetics. A natural recovery balm that works.
