Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Beth, The wintergreen oil works the same as camphor and menthol which are the main ingredients in the over the counter arthritis creams. What it does is warms the skin and makes the blood flow there. It helps with the inflammation by creating heat and blood flow. But is better for kids because it is more natural and not so medicated. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
