Pacific Bone Water pain liniment

Pacific Bone Water

Pacific Bone Water is our high quality topical pain liniment created using high quality organic medicinal grade herbs imported and quality tested, ethically harvested and/or wildcrafted. We use only the best ingredients for a formula that is both all natural and surprisingly effective.

@pacificbonewater is a pain liniment that has a analgesic affect which numbs the sensation of pain where applied for 1-3 hrs and is a warming circulatory tonic which aids in increasing blood flow and reducing swelling and inflammation.

“I had my reservations when I was first referred to acupuncture”

But I can honestly say after a couple of sessions with Chis I was quickly convinced of the benefits and amazing results. I'm happy to say that the results have enabled me to be active again and finally free of pain. I highly recommend it and it is definitely worth it in my opinion.
