Easy Tiger — 3 Tigers
Maximum thermal intensity. Formulated for heavy training loads and deep muscle fatigue.
Sports Recovery Balm — Hot
Easy Tiger 3 Tigers is the most thermally aggressive formula in the Easy Tiger range, built for athletes under serious training load. A firmer wax matrix holds the highest concentrations of every active ingredient. Maximum Menthol and Camphor deliver an intense cooling then deep warming thermal response. Arnica Oil at peak concentration drives anti-inflammatory action and accelerates circulation to fatigued tissue. Tamanu Oil continues its tissue-regenerative work. Ginger and Black Pepper essential oils provide deep, penetrating heat that reaches into muscle belly and joint tissue. Start with a small amount. The thermal response is strong and builds. This is the formula for high-volume blocks, heavy load weeks, and athletes who know what their body needs after a serious session.
Key Benefits
- Structural protection against body burn
Key Ingredients
- Shea Butter: The primary barrier-repair butter in the matrix. Rich in oleic and stearic acids, it provides deep lasting moisture and soothes inflamed skin. Supports barrier restoration after mechanical load.
- Mango Butter: A lighter, non-comedogenic emollient with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Melts on skin contact to form a protective oil that hydrates without grease. Particularly effective post-friction where the skin barrier has been mechanically stressed.
- Cocoa Butter: Increases in proportion across tiers, adding structural firmness to the wax matrix. Restores the skin's natural barrier, helps heal redness and inflammation, and improves blood flow to support healthy cell turnover.
- Beeswax: The structural matrix anchor. Locks active ingredients against the skin and prevents premature breakdown during massage application. Increases in proportion across tiers for greater firmness and staying power.
- Jojoba Oil: The primary glide carrier. A liquid wax ester that closely mimics the skin's own sebum. Research suggests sports massage with jojoba oil may aid in reducing exercise-induced muscle injury and inflammation.
- Apricot Kernel Oil: A fast-absorbing, lightweight carrier oil high in oleic acid. Supports skin softening and nutrient delivery, and enhances the spreadability of the formula during massage application.
- Tamanu Oil: A standout recovery ingredient. Rich in calophyllolide, a compound with proven wound-healing and tissue-regenerating properties. Accelerates healing, reduces infection risk, improves circulation in sore areas, and promotes collagen production. A Pacific Islands traditional remedy with well-researched modern evidence.
- Calendula Oil: Established for skin-calming and wound-healing properties. Supports tissue repair and soothes mechanically stressed skin. Reduces in proportion from 1 Tiger to 3 Tigers as the formula intensifies.
- Arnica Oil: A clinically recognised sports recovery ingredient. Topical application has been shown to reduce pain, inflammation, and muscle damage, with athletes reporting less soreness 72 hours post-exercise. Stimulates white blood cells, reduces bruising and swelling, and improves circulation through dilation of subcutaneous capillaries. Increases in proportion from 1 Tiger to 3 Tigers.
- Zinc Oxide (non-nano): A physical mineral providing skin protection, anti-inflammatory action, and barrier support. Non-nano grade stays on the skin surface and does not penetrate the bloodstream. Increases from 1 Tiger to 3 Tigers.
- Vitamin E: A fat-soluble antioxidant that protects skin lipids from oxidative damage and supports cellular repair. Consistent across all three tiers. Acts as a natural preservative within the wax matrix.
- Menthol Crystals: The primary cooling active. Activates cold receptors in the skin to produce a therapeutic cooling sensation that relieves pain. Works as a counterirritant to reset sore tissue. Increases significantly from 2 Tigers to 3 Tigers.
- Camphor (white): Paired with menthol for a thermal contrast effect. Creates a warming sensation that increases circulation, delivering oxygen and nutrients to fatigued muscle faster. Research confirms camphor improves both skin and muscle blood flow.
- Ginger EO: Improves circulation and reduces discomfort in sore areas. A dominant warmth driver in 3 Tigers, significantly more concentrated than in 2 Tigers. Traditional use in deep muscle applications across Asian medicine.
- Black Pepper EO: The heat-amplifier exclusive to 3 Tigers. Stimulates blood flow and produces deep penetrating warmth. Combined with maximum menthol and camphor, it makes 3 Tigers the most thermally aggressive formula in the range.
Ingredients
A blend of natural plant butters, infused botanical oils and essential oils selected for post-activity recovery and skin comfort.
Directions
After heavy sessions, apply firmly to targeted muscle groups. Use deep circular pressure to drive the formula in. The thermal response is strong — start with a small amount and build. Not recommended on broken or irritated skin.
