Tucked in among the tables of crafts, baking, and Christmas items at the recent Legion Christmas Craft Trade Show was a booth selling an ointment to manage pain from a host of ailments.
Distributor Grant Currie of Saskatoon and his family use the Muscle Check product.
“I use it for gout,” he said. My wife uses it for arthritis.”
Made from natural products like beeswax, virgin olive oil, tea tree oil, castor oil, wintergreen leaf oil, and other such substances, the company suggests the ointment relieves pain from sore muscles, arthritis, rheumatism, hip pain, sciatic back pain, gout, foot pain and finger pain among others.
The company recommends consulting a doctor before using.
A steady flow of visitors attended the show with much attention focussed on the tables of home baking made by Legion volunteers.
