When your joints ache, your back feels stiff, or your muscles are sore, it’s easy to reach for a quick-fix cream or pill. But most over-the-counter options are designed to mask discomfort, not address the root causes like inflammation, circulation, or oxidative stress.
That’s where botanical science changes the game.
SomaLeaf’s Soothe Roll-On combines hemp extract with over two dozen essential oils and plant-based compounds that researchers have linked to both pain relief and skin health. From menthol crystals that activate cooling receptors to ease sore muscles, to chamomile extracts clinically shown to reduce inflammation, this formula was built on more than just tradition — it’s backed by modern science.
For example:
- Menthol has been found to activate TRPM8 receptors in the skin, triggering a cooling sensation that reduces the perception of pain.
- Chamomile extracts (both Roman and German) have been studied for their ability to lower inflammation markers and soothe irritated tissue.
- Helichrysum oil has shown antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, supporting tissue repair and calming redness.
- Peppermint oil has been found to relax smooth muscle and improve circulation, making it useful for tension and soreness.
And unlike single-purpose products, Soothe Roll-On was designed to do double duty: calm discomfort and support your skin barrier, hydration, and resilience with every application.
In this blog, we’ll explore five powerful, research-backed ways this multitasking roll-on can support your body — from easing sore muscles to nourishing your skin.
1. Sore Muscles & Achy Joints: Instant Cooling and Relaxation
One of the most common reasons people reach for a roll-on remedy is to ease tension and discomfort in their muscles and joints. Whether it’s a stiff neck after a long day at the desk, soreness after a workout, or chronic joint aches, Soothe Roll-On is designed to bring fast relief — and research shows why its ingredients work so well.
- Menthol Crystals
Menthol has been shown to activate TRPM8 cold-sensitive receptors in the skin. This doesn’t just create a cooling sensation — it actually alters how nerves send pain signals to the brain. Clinical research suggests topical menthol can reduce perceived muscle soreness and improve comfort after exercise. - Camphor Oil
Traditionally used for centuries, camphor has been backed by studies showing it can increase local blood flow, creating a warming effect that relaxes tight muscles and soothes stiffness. One clinical trial found camphor-based balms effective at reducing pain and improving mobility in arthritis patients. - Capsicum Oleoresin (Capsaicin)
Capsaicin — the active compound in chili peppers — works by depleting substance P, a neuropeptide involved in transmitting pain signals. When used topically, it’s been shown to significantly reduce chronic joint pain, especially in conditions like osteoarthritis. - Peppermint Oil
Beyond its refreshing scent, peppermint oil has been found to relax smooth muscle and ease muscle spasms. Studies also suggest it improves circulation, which can support faster recovery and relief from localized aches.
Together, these botanicals create a one-two punch of cooling and warming sensations that calm pain, ease inflammation, and relax sore areas. And thanks to the roll-on format, you can apply it exactly where you need it — without mess or residue.
2. Skin-Loving Ingredients That Won’t Irritate
Most pain creams on the market are loaded with harsh chemicals, synthetic fragrances, or petroleum byproducts that can dry out or even irritate your skin. SomaLeaf’s Soothe Roll-On takes a completely different approach. Alongside its pain-soothing botanicals, it’s also packed with ingredients that support skin health, barrier strength, and hydration.
- Aloe Vera
Aloe has long been known for calming sunburns, but research shows it does much more. Aloe contains polysaccharides and antioxidants that reduce redness, promote healing, and hydrate the skin. Studies have confirmed its role in accelerating skin repair and reducing irritation. - Chamomile (Roman & German)
Chamomile isn’t just for tea — both Roman and German chamomile have demonstrated powerful anti-inflammatory effects in clinical studies. Applied topically, chamomile can help soothe irritation, reduce skin inflammation, and calm conditions like eczema or dermatitis. - Helichrysum Oil
Sometimes called the “immortelle” or “everlasting flower,” helichrysum has been studied for its antioxidant and wound-healing properties. Research suggests it supports tissue repair, reduces oxidative stress on the skin, and helps calm redness — making it a premium oil for maintaining resilient, youthful-looking skin. - Witch Hazel
Witch hazel is a botanical astringent rich in tannins. Studies show it helps tighten pores, reduce oil buildup, and calm skin irritation. It’s often recommended for sensitive or acne-prone skin, and here it doubles as a soothing companion to the stronger warming and cooling oils in the formula.
By blending pain relief with these skin-supportive ingredients, Soothe Roll-On doesn’t just make you feel better — it makes your skin look and feel better too.
3. Soothes Inflammation & Boosts Circulation
While cooling and warming sensations can bring fast relief, long-term comfort comes from addressing what’s happening underneath the surface — things like inflammation, oxidative stress, and poor circulation. The Soothe Roll-On includes botanicals that research shows can calm inflammation while also improving blood flow, helping sore spots heal more effectively.
- Eucalyptus Oil
Well known for its refreshing scent, eucalyptus has also been studied for its anti-inflammatory properties. Topical application has been linked with reduced pain and swelling in osteoarthritis patients, making it a powerful addition for soothing joints and muscles. - Rosemary Oil
Rosemary has been shown to increase blood circulation where applied, delivering more oxygen and nutrients to tissues. In one study, rosemary extract reduced markers of oxidative stress and improved joint comfort in individuals with chronic pain. - Ginger Root Extract
Ginger is one of the most extensively studied botanicals for inflammation. Research consistently shows that compounds like gingerols can lower pro-inflammatory cytokines and ease muscle soreness. Athletes who used ginger reported faster recovery and less delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). - Juniper Berry Oil
Traditionally used for muscle and joint complaints, juniper has antioxidant and circulation-supporting properties. Early studies suggest it helps reduce oxidative stress and ease inflammation, making it a complementary oil for soothing discomfort.
By improving circulation and calming inflammation, these oils don’t just mask discomfort — they help your body recover, leaving you feeling more mobile and less weighed down by stiffness or soreness.
4. Natural Stress Relief & Mind-Body Relaxation
Pain and tension don’t just affect your body — they also take a toll on your mind. Chronic discomfort can increase stress levels, while stress itself can amplify pain through a cycle of tight muscles and heightened sensitivity. That’s why the Soothe Roll-On also includes essential oils that not only ease your body but also calm your mind.
- Citronella Oil
Best known as a natural bug repellent, citronella has also been studied for its relaxing and stress-reducing properties. Inhalation and topical application have been linked with reduced anxiety and an improved sense of calm. - Sweet Basil Oil
Research shows basil oil can help ease mental fatigue and reduce stress. It contains compounds like linalool, which has been studied for its calming and anti-anxiety effects. This makes basil a dual-action ingredient, supporting both mood and muscle relaxation. - Pink Grapefruit Oil
Citrus scents are often associated with energy and uplift, and research supports this. Grapefruit essential oil has been linked with decreased cortisol (a stress hormone) and improved feelings of well-being. Applying it topically delivers both a refreshing scent and antioxidant benefits for the skin.
Together, these botanicals create a subtle aromatherapy effect with every application. As you roll it onto your skin, you’re not just soothing sore muscles — you’re also inviting your nervous system to relax, helping your body break the stress-pain cycle.
5. Everyday Protection for Active Lives
Life doesn’t stop when you’re sore — you’re still out working, exercising, and spending time with family. That’s why the Soothe Roll-On was designed to do more than ease pain — it also helps protect your skin and keep it healthy no matter what the day brings.
- Oregano Oil
Oregano isn’t just for cooking. It’s packed with compounds like carvacrol, which studies show have natural antimicrobial properties. Topically, oregano oil has been found to help protect skin against harmful bacteria, reducing the risk of irritation and breakouts. - Cajeput & Pine Oils
Both cajeput and pine scotch oils are traditionally used for their antiseptic qualities. Research supports their ability to help cleanse and refresh the skin, while their invigorating scent provides an added sense of renewal with each use. - Peppermint & Spearmint Oils
Beyond their cooling effects, mint oils also contain natural antimicrobial properties. Together, they help keep skin feeling fresh, balanced, and protected. - Hemp Oil: The Foundation
At the heart of the formula is hemp oil, a nutrient-rich base that ties everything together. Hemp oil is loaded with essential fatty acids like omega-3 and omega-6, which help strengthen the skin barrier, lock in hydration, and reduce inflammation. Research suggests hemp oil can improve skin elasticity and soothe irritation, making it the perfect carrier for this blend of powerful botanicals.
With these protective ingredients, Soothe Roll-On doesn’t just calm discomfort — it fortifies your skin to handle daily stressors. That means you can apply it after a workout, a long day at the office, or time outdoors and know your skin is getting real support.
