Well-being balms may be applied to dogs and cats!

Manokin Medicinal Pet Well-Being balms are an all-in-one treatment for dry skin, hot spots, inflammation, and rashes from plant allergic reactions, fungal issues, i.e., yeast, and pain due to arthritis or inflammation from athletic stress. This formula is safe for both animals and humans.

 

The natural components in both the Pet Well-Being (animal-focused) and Turtle Balm (humans) balms are different only in the essential oil mixture. Pet-Wellness balm is ‘lickable’ in that there is no essential oil in the product that is not used in food, i.e., rosemary, bergamot, chamomile, et.al. Whereas our human-focused Turtle Balms contain eucalyptus which may disagree with pet digestive systems. Not to say, that when in a jam, I have grabbed the Turtle Balm to rub down my German Shepherd who suffers severe arthritis in her front paws and hips.

 

Our hemp-derived CBD balms certified organic components and have been tested by a third-party laboratory to verify quality and purity. 

 

Pet Well-Being balms:

 

  • Soothe and nourish cracked sore paws.
  • Promote healing dry noses in both dogs and cats.
  • Massage on legs, paws.
  • Work onto the skin, on the inner hind legs.
  • Apply to belly area for skin rashes.
  • Are available in 300mg and 1700mg potencies.

 

APPLICATION

 

You may apply balm to paws or other problem areas after a bath to replenish moisture. A bath removes some of the natural oils from your pet’s skin, causing irritation and inflammation. Research reports CBD balms contain antifungal, antimicrobial, and antibacterial properties confirming the potential to treat rashes related to a variety of sources causing atopic dermatitis and yeast rashes.

Or use the balms anytime your pet is limping or showing discomfort from arthritis or joint stiffness.

 

PAWS and LEGS:  Wipe paws or the affected area with warm cloth to clean the area prior to Pet Well-Being application after a run in the dog park or chasing as squirrel. (Did I write that?)  Proceed with a gentle paw massage with either the 300mg Pet Well-Being for regular maintenance, or the 1700mg for visible inflammation, i.e., rash, insect stings, or arthritis spurs. 

 

HIPS and BACK:  Pet Well-Being may be applied and absorbed through your pet’s skin, despite their furry coats. Depending on your pet’s condition, you may use gentle, but vigorous rubs on the hip area and along the spine. Depending upon the breed, the fur may be dense: Just put enough balm on your fingers so you can get through the fur to massage the back and hip areas and the legs. The Pet Well-Being 1700mg is the best for this type of application.   

 

Always consult your veterinarian if your pet’s condition worsens or shows no signs of improvement. It is wise to avoid over the counter human pain relief creams as the FDA reports some human pain relief creams used are deadly to cats. Creams containing flurbiprofen are not lickable(2)
