Choose the formula that most closely matches what your body is experiencing.

Arnica Plus Herbal — Start here for everyday bumps, bruised-feeling areas, soreness, tenderness, overworked muscles and targeted areas that suddenly need attention.

Lighten the Load — Move here when discomfort is broader, more persistent, shifting between areas, or involves several different sensations at once.

Silica Dit Da Jow — Reach for this more specialized formula when there has been significant physical impact or your body feels deeply banged up after a demanding physical event.

Apply the selected formula to the desired external area according to its individual product directions.

For external use only. Avoid the eyes and mucous membranes. Do not apply to broken or irritated skin. Do not ingest. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

New, severe, unexplained, persistent or worsening pain should be evaluated by a qualified healthcare professional. Significant trauma, suspected fractures, severe swelling or loss of function should receive appropriate medical evaluation.

Skin is designed to be a barrier, which makes topical delivery a formulation challenge. Ætherbal’s patent-pending delivery system was developed around two important considerations: molecular size and the need to work with both water- and oil-compatible botanical compounds.

Research has demonstrated that molecules below 500 Daltons are more likely to pass through the skin barrier. At the foundation of our system is Orthosilicic Acid, with a molecular mass of approximately 96 Daltons, well below the approximately 500-Dalton molecular-size guideline commonly discussed in skin-permeation science.

Across the Total Body Comfort System, complex botanical ingredients bring together constituents with very different chemical characteristics. Ætherbal’s amphiphilic system was designed to work with both water- and oil-compatible constituents rather than requiring that botanical complexity to fit predominantly into one environment or the other.

The botanicals provide the traditional intelligence. Our delivery system is the formulation technology.

Are these simply three strengths of the same product?

No.

The idea of “levels of care” describes when you might reach for each formula, not three increasing concentrations of the same formula.

Each is independently formulated with a different botanical profile and intended use. Arnica Plus Herbal centers everyday, targeted body care. Lighten the Load provides a broader approach for complex or widespread discomfort. Silica Dit Da Jow draws from traditional trauma-oriented herbal formulation for more significant physical impact.

Which formula should I start with?

For ordinary bumps, soreness, tenderness or one overworked area, Arnica Plus Herbal is the natural starting point.

When the experience becomes widespread, persistent, shifting or involves several different sensations, consider Lighten the Load.

When there has been significant physical impact and your body feels seriously banged up, Silica Dit Da Jow occupies that more specialized role.

What if I find that one formula works best for me?

That is one of the reasons the system exists.

The Trio allows you to experience the formulas yourself rather than trying to determine your match entirely from a product description. Once you know which formula you prefer, you can purchase that product individually.

Do I have to use them in order?

No.

This isn't a three-step regimen, and you do not need to use one formula before another. Think of them as three different tools in the same botanical toolkit.

Choose according to what you are experiencing and the level and type of care you want at that moment.

Can I keep all three on hand even after I find my favorite?

Absolutely. Your favorite formula may handle most days, while another becomes the one you reach for in a particular situation.

That versatility is the second purpose of the system: your body doesn't always ask for the same kind of care.
