Massage with peppermint oil
Reports on the use of peppermint and its oil exist in many ancient cultures. The scent of peppermint is refreshing and cooling. As a "cure-all" in the context of aromatherapy, peppermint offers a variety of uses, e.g. mixed with jojoba oil as a cooling leg massage for swollen feet. Ideal after hiking days, long work and sporting activities. An all-rounder in our range is the Magnesium Gel Sport. It combines high-quality Zechstein magnesium with the essential oils peppermint and spruce and is massaged directly onto stressed parts of the body.

Oxymel
The natural sour honey made from vinegar and honey is recommended by our pharmacists as a daily mineral refreshment in between meals. Doctors of antiquity, such as Hippocrates, already swore by the health-promoting effect of the healing drink. Cold-stirred honey contains around 200 ingredients, including amino acids, minerals, enzymes and many more. Due to its high mineral content, Oxymel is particularly suitable for people with mineral deficiencies and muscle cramps. You can find out more about Oxymel here.

Hydrolate
Another tip that our founder Alexander Ehrmann particularly likes to follow: Cool 100% pure plant hydrolates in the fridge and refresh your face with it every morning or in between. New in our range is our 100% natural plant hydrolate peppermint from steam distillation. The fresh, invigorating scent of the plant water promotes clear thinking and activates body and mind. As a leg spray, the peppermint hydrolate has a toning effect. For an extra freshness kick, we recommend chilling the hydrolate in the refrigerator.

Who says you can only drink tea in winter? Even in summer, our pharmacists recommend the cool refreshment of a herbal tea.

Hydro Boost Gel Serum
If the skin is exposed to more sunlight in summer, it tends to dry out more quickly. Our remedy: the Hydro Boost Gel Serum. The hyaluronic acid in the serum binds moisture, while the pollutant Ectoin has an anti-inflammatory effect, protects against pollutants and has a regenerating effect on the skin.
The ideal moisturising day care for the summer.
