I use it for muscle aches and pains. But, maybe sitting in a hot bath with salt water steaming helps. Salt has great anti-inflammatory properties. That's why we wash our sinus' with it and why if we are cut and put that area in the ocean it heals quicker. I really do not not much else about it but, it works great for muscles.
