What is the Pony Express Relief?
It’s the combination of 3 essential oils lemongrass, yarrow and lavender plus the fractionated coconut oil. These ingredients synergistically compliment one another to reduce the discomforts of temporary muscle soreness from muscles, tendons, ligaments and reduce fluid retention for humans and equines.

The Discovery
The Pony Express Relief was formulated in the spring of 2007. We performed a massage on a horse that had injured his inner thigh muscle jumping over the fence. Numerous holistic tools weren’t practical due to the location of the injury. The application of a topical solution composed of essential oils was a possible solution. Through research and consultation, the Pony Express was born. It provides quick relief to sore and tired muscles. At the same time I sampled the product on my clients. As one client commented: “It’s like having a masseuse in a bottle!”

Lemongrass:

Yarrow:

Fractionated Coconut Oil:
This is natural coconut butter with the fats removed. The removal of the solid coconut fat aids in absorption. It helps the oil to penetrate deep into the skin to the muscles, tendons and ligaments. This means you use less product with maximum results.

Pony Express Relief Sea Salts
My husband wanted the Pony Express Relief for a bath and my mother -in-law wanted to soak her feet in it. We decided to mix the 3 essential oils in sea salt.
Historically, the sea was used to reduce numerous skin conditions and other ailments. That’s why people still use the sea for therapeutic properties. The combination of these essential oils and sea salts makes this a winning combination to reduce stress, soothe tired and weak muscles.
