Pain Buster Kombo Butter Muscle Blend

The Pain Buster Kombo Butter Muscle Blend is a DIY massage balm of shea butter, kombo butter, jojoba oil and beeswax, with essential oils added. Baraka's kombo and shea butters are made by hand at the Konjeihi Women's Enterprise Centre in Wa, Ghana.

What is kombo butter? Kombo Butter used to be relatively unknown, but its traditional use as a massage butter and the reported benefits of its natural properties are helping it to grow in popularity as a super-butter. It is high in myristoleic acid, which many people report using for muscle and joint aches.

DIRECTIONS

1. Set up your double boiler or use a pyrex in a pot of boiling water (Low boil so the shea butter doesn't get gritty)
2. Add your beeswax and start to melt it, then add shea and melt it
3. Stir in the kombo and allow it to melt while mixing 
4. Add in your jojoba and remove from heat
5. Stir your essential oil choices with a glass stir rod
6. Once mixed, add the liquid mixture to your 2 oz. glass jars, cap, and allow to cool

Your essential oil choices could be any oil you love such as Lavender, Frankincense, Copaiba, Basil, Cypress, or Peppermint. Typically I use 30 drops per 2 ounce jar, if you want to make different versions in each jar add your essential oils to the jar you want and then pour in your butter mixture over the top and stir with your glass stir rod to mix them before capping. When you are done and they cool your butters will look similar to these warm cocoa like jars of butters.
