What is Camphor? Camphor is a white, crystalline substance with a distinctive, pungent scent.Originally, it is obtained from the wood of the Asian camphor tree (Cinnamomum camphora), a relative of the cinnamon tree.In cosmetics and medicine, it is famous for its paradoxical effect: It feels cool on the skin but intensively promotes blood circulation, creating a deep, soothing warmth.

Camphor is a main ingredient in many sports and horse balms. Its ability to extremely stimulate microcirculation makes it the ideal partner for:

• Tension: The increased blood flow helps to loosen hardened muscles and relieve pain.
• Rheumatic Complaints: The deep heat has a soothing effect on joint stiffness.
• Sports Recovery: Promotes the removal of metabolic products after training.

Besides muscle care, Camphor is a multi-talent for skin and airways.Hago products use these properties for:

• Clear Breathing: The fresh, minty scent opens the airways (ideal for cold relief baths).
• Itch Relief: By stimulating cold receptors on the skin, itching is immediately numbed and relieved.
• Antiseptic Effect: Helps to inhibit bacteria on the skin and prevent inflammation.
