Dragon balm uses and Ingredients
WHAT IS DRAGON BALM USED FOR?
Dragon Balm is a topical pain relief balm designed to help soothe everyday aches, muscle soreness, and joint discomfort. It is commonly used by people seeking fast-acting, plant-based relief applied directly to the area of discomfort. By combining naturally derived terpenes, hemp-based compounds, and botanical oils, Dragon Balm delivers targeted relief where it is applied, without the need for oral pain products.
Dragon Balm is often used for:
- Muscle Pain and Post-Workout Soreness – After physical activity, muscles can feel tight, fatigued, or sore due to overexertion and buildup of tension. Dragon Balm is often applied to tired muscles to create a cooling-to-warming sensation that helps soothe discomfort and support muscle relaxation following exercise or strenuous activity.
- Joint Stiffness and Mobility Discomfort – Joint stiffness can make everyday movement feel restricted or uncomfortable. Dragon Balm is commonly used on areas such as knees, elbows, wrists, and hands to help ease stiffness and support more comfortable movement throughout the day.
- Back, Neck, and Shoulder Tension – Prolonged sitting, poor posture, and daily stress often contribute to tension in the back, neck, and shoulders. Applying Dragon Balm to these areas may help provide a soothing sensation that encourages relaxation in tight or overworked muscles.
- Arthritis-Related Aches – Many individuals experiencing arthritis-related discomfort seek topical options to help manage daily aches. Dragon Balm is commonly used as part of a routine focused on comfort, offering localized relief without the need for oral products.
- Overuse Injuries From Daily Activity – Repetitive motions from work, hobbies, or household tasks can lead to localized discomfort over time. Dragon Balm is often used on areas affected by overuse to help support comfort after extended or repeated physical activity.
- General Body Aches and Localized Pain – For occasional, everyday aches that affect specific areas of the body, Dragon Balm provides a convenient, topical option. Its targeted application allows users to focus relief exactly where it is needed most.
Dragon Balm Ingredients and Their Benefits

Almond oil, beeswax, cocoa butter, coconut oil, grapeseed oil, hemp extract, hempseed oil, peppermint, clove oil, cassia oil, and cajeput oil – Help moisturize the skin, support absorption, and complement the active compounds for a balanced topical experience.
TERPENES
Terpenes are aromatic oils found in many plants. These oils contribute to the plant’s aroma and are thought to play a role in plant based health and protection.
The primary terpenes in Dragon are Menthol and Camphor. These naturally occurring compounds are well known for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties and have been used in medicine for centuries.
Menthol is known for its cooling sensation on the skin. It has pain-relieving properties based on its ability to block specific ion channels responsible for perceiving pain. It is particularly effective in alleviating muscle pain, joint pain, and inflammation-related discomfort.
Camphor also interacts with our temperature receptors but instead of producing a cooling effect, it produces a warming effect. It too is known for its pain-relieving properties and combining these two terpenes enhances overall relief.
In addition to camphor and menthol, our formulation includes other beneficial terpenes such as humulene, pinene, myrcene, and nerolidol, each chosen to encourage the “entourage effect”, a term used to describe the potential synergistic interaction between various plant compounds. This theory suggests that the combined effect of hemp-derived cannabinoids and terpenes may enhance the overall wellness experience. The entourage effect is a topic of ongoing research and there is more to be discovered about the expanded therapeutic benefits of plant-derived terpenes.
CANNABINOIDS
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is a non-psychoactive organic compound found in hemp, a variety of the hemp-derived Sativa plant. Hemp-extracted cannabinoids, including CBD, CBG, CBN, and others, are active compounds from the hemp plant. CBG and CBN are emerging as interesting subjects in the realm of natural compounds due to their unique properties.
While ongoing research is exploring the full potential of these cannabinoids, our products integrate these compounds with the intention of offering a natural wellness experience. Our proprietary blend focuses on harnessing the qualities of specific cannabinoids along with herbal additives, aiming to provide a comforting and harmonious balance for your well-being.
The historical use of cannabinoids spans centuries, with references dating back to ancient civilizations who recognized the value of natural compounds. Our approach is inspired by this long-standing appreciation, coupled with a modern understanding of plant-based elements.
We closely follow the evolving landscape of cannabinoid research. For instance, studies like a 2020 investigation into peripheral neuropathy and topical applications provide intriguing insights into the world of plant-based compounds. However, it’s important to note that our products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. We believe in offering a naturally inspired option for those seeking to incorporate the qualities of hemp-derived cannabinoids into their daily wellness routine.
ENTOURAGE EFFECT
The term Entourage Effect refers to the synergistic relationship the plant’s compounds have with each other. In other words, when all of the plant-based ingredients work in harmony, the result produces a greater therapeutic effect than either would alone. Botanicals, such as essential oils, herbs, and spices, have been used for centuries for pain relief and complement one another when blended together.
