Moov Spray

Moov Spray is a popular and effective topical pain relief product, widely used in India for quick relief from various types of musculoskeletal pain. Unlike the cream, the spray format offers a convenient, mess-free, and targeted application, especially for hard-to-reach areas like the back.

 

Key Ingredients and How They Work

 

Moov Spray typically contains a blend of active ingredients that work together to provide a soothing, warming, and pain-relieving effect. The exact formulation can vary between different Moov products, but common ingredients include:

• Wintergreen Oil (Methyl Salicylate): This is a powerful analgesic (pain reliever) and anti-inflammatory agent. It provides a warming sensation and helps reduce swelling.

• Eucalyptus Oil: Known for its anti-inflammatory properties, it helps relax muscles and reduce stiffness.

• Turpentine Oil: Acts as a counter-irritant, creating a soothing heat sensation that can alleviate deep-seated muscle and joint pain.

• Menthol (Mint Extract): Provides an immediate cooling sensation that helps numb the area and offers temporary pain relief.

• Diclofenac Diethylamine: Some variants, like Moov STRONG, contain this Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) which more directly targets the source of pain and inflammation.

 

Uses

 

Moov Spray is used for the temporary relief of pain and discomfort associated with:

• Muscle pain and stiffness: Due to overexertion, sports injuries, or daily activities.

• Backache and neck pain: Often caused by long hours of sitting or poor posture.

• Joint pain: Including pain in the knee, shoulder, or ankle.

• Sprains and strains: Helps reduce inflammation and pain from minor injuries.

• Other conditions: Such as myositis, fibrositis, and sciatica.

• Shake well: Always shake the canister thoroughly before use.

• Targeted application: Hold the container about 6 inches (15 cm) away from the skin.

• Short bursts: Spray the affected area in 2 or 3 short bursts, as needed.

• Frequency: It is generally recommended to use it up to 3-4 times a day.
