we make a Chilli massage Oil and sell it in our shop/gallery.
We infuse habs or whatever else wehave in vegetable oil for a time.
We test it on ourselves sometimes it is a bit too hot then we water it
down with a little more oil.
We add some aches and pains type essential oil and there it is
Excellent for pain.
