In May our topics are Pain, Muscles, and Nerves. We will be discussing many things such as bruising, circulation, Charley Horses, cramps, inflammation, headaches, and even some emotional situations that are made worse by nerves such as anxiety and depression.
I am really excited about the things I have picked to discuss this month. When my team and I decided to focus on SELF-IMPROVEMENT and SELF-LOVE so many wonderful products came to mind. We had a hard time narrowing the list down to our favorites. I can’t wait to share them with you.

This blog is still likely to get long so I have included a LIST OF COVERED TOPICS I hope this helps you quickly find the information you are looking for.
