Description

 The invention relates to the field of cosmetics and medicine, namely to means for body massage.

 Massage is currently the most widely used. To increase the effectiveness of massage, special creams (ointments) are widely used, which include biologically active substances (BAS), for example, extracts of medicinal plants.

 A well-known massage cream (a.s. 1438786, class A 61 K 7/00, 1986) containing perfume oil, paraffin, ceresin, lanolin, confectionery fat, propyl and methyl esters of paroxybenzoic acid, paraformaldehyde, borax, water, emulsifier perfume. In order to increase the biological activity, a complex of oil extracts of dioecious nettle and hop pellets is introduced into the cream on the low-melting fraction of mink fat and camphor medical racemic, as well as citric acid.

 The cream provides good glide during massage, achieving pronounced hyperemia of the skin, improves turgor and skin color.

 The disadvantages of massage cream as. 1438786 are insufficient biological activity, as well as the use of a large number of synthetic components in the formulation.

Closest to the claimed (prototype) is a massage cream (US Pat. RF 2014823, class A 61 K 7/00, 1992), in which the components are taken in the following ratio, wt.%
Ceresin - 4.0 - 7.0
Paraffin - 6.0 - 10.0
Lanolin - 4.0 - 6.0
Emulsifier - 1.5 - 5.0
Complex CO - extracts from
Calendula and millet torch or from calendula, carrot seed and rice waste - 0.1 - 4.0
Eucalyptus, hazelnut shells or bench, hazelnut shells - 01 - 4.0
or
Dill and carrot seeds in a ratio of 0.5: 0.5 - 0.1 - 4.0
Peppermint Oil - Menthol - 0.1 - 2.0
Overclocked alcohols - 0.5 - 5.0
Carrot fat or mink oil - 0.5 - 3.0
Preservative - 0.01 - 0.5
Borax - 0.1 - 1.0
Water - 13.0 - 20.0
Fragrance - 0.2 - 1.3
Perfume Oil - Rest
Perfume oil was used as a nutritious fat base in the massage cream formulation, a complex of paraffin and ceresin was used as solid structuring components, as well as dispersed alcohols, and lanolin, mink oil or mink oil as a softening additive. To increase the biological activity of the cream, it contains complexes of CO - extracts from calendula and millet flour, or from calendula, carrot seeds, and rice waste; from eucalyptus and hazelnut shell or from laurel and hazelnut shell; or from dill and carrot seeds in a ratio of 0.5: 0.5, as well as peppermint oil - menthol.

 To increase the degree of dispersion of fatty substances, water was introduced into the cream formulation. Borax is used as a weak alkali to soften water and as a water disinfectant. The presence of water causes the introduction of an emulsifier as well as a preservative in the formulation of the cream to provide resistance to oxidation and the action of microorganisms. Since mink fat or mink oil has a very persistent, specific and unpleasant odor, a fragrance is introduced into the cream formulation.

 Massage cream according to US Pat. RF 2014823 has sufficient biological activity, can improve the functional state of muscles and gliding during massage.

 Significant disadvantages of the massage cream for the prototype are its multicomponent nature, the use of a large number of synthetic substances in the formulation (fat base, solid structuring components, preservative, emulsifier, perfume), which are not active ingredients of the cream, but are caused by the technology of its manufacture and during their long-term effects on the body, for example in sports massage, can cause undesirable allergic phenomena.

 In addition, the cream does not have a pronounced warming and analgesic effect, which limits its use, in particular in sports medicine.

 The basis of this invention is the technical task of creating a massage cream recipe, which would include only natural components with increased biological activity and a wide spectrum of effects on the human body, with a pronounced warming and analgesic effect, as well as simplifying the formulation and expanding the range of creams for massage.

The technical problem is solved by the fact that the proposed massage cream "Health" containing a nutritious fat base, structuring and biologically active components, in which, according to the invention, lanolin is used as a nutritive fat base, propolis wax and sunflower oil as structuring components , and as biologically active components menthol, fir oil and viburnum oil, in the following ratio of components, wt.%:
Propolis Wax - 10.0 - 14.0
Sunflower oil - 24.0 - 28.0
Menthol - 6.0 - 10.0
Fir oil - 15.0 - 19.0
Viburnum oil - 1.5 - 5.0
Lanolin - Else
The proposed massage cream "Health" is a thick paste-like mass of yellowish-brown or greenish-brown color with a subtle refreshing smell of fir oil and menthol.

 It has increased absorption, without causing skin irritation, enhances blood circulation, has a pronounced warming and analgesic effect, provides good glide during massage, achieving pronounced skin hyperemia, improves turgor and skin color. In addition, the biologically active substances included in the formulation additionally enhance the nourishing effect of the cream, help eliminate vitamin deficiency, provide skin cell regeneration, and have an anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effect.

 This is due primarily to the components included in the cream and their quantitative ratio.

 Anhydrous lanolin - FS 42-2520-88 - a thick and viscous mass of a yellow, yellow-brown or greenish-brown color of a peculiar smell. It is a specific fraction of distilled wax from sheep's wool, consisting mainly of a mixture of fatty acids and wax-like fatty acid esters.

 In the cream formulation, lanolin is introduced as a nutritious fatty base of natural animal origin, it nourishes and softens the skin. In addition, due to its composition of wax-like esters of fatty acids, lanolin in the composition of urema additionally performs the function of a solid component that provides a viscous cream structure.

 Propolis wax - TU-64-5-311-001-91 - is obtained during the processing of propolis during the production of the proposol medical product. It is a light yellow to dark yellow wax with a greenish or grayish tint. The smell is pleasant, specific - waxy with an admixture of the smell of propolis.

 Propolis wax was introduced into the formulation as a solid component, providing a viscous cream structure. It has an excellent film-forming property, improves the sliding effect, which facilitates the massage procedure, improves skin elasticity.

 In addition, propolis wax contains valuable biologically active substances - polyphenols with a bactericidal, deodorizing effect, and bioflavonoids with P-vitamin activity.

 It is known that vitamin P is a factor that reduces the permeability and fragility of capillaries, improves the digestibility of vitamin C, together with which it participates in redox processes.

 Due to this, propolis wax in the cream has an anti-inflammatory effect, has a strengthening effect on the capillaries, increasing their elasticity.

 The use of propolis wax as a component of massage creams from the prior art has not been identified.

 Sunflower oil - GOST 1129-73 - refined, deodorized, odorless transparent is introduced into the massage cream formulation as a liquid structuring component. It contributes to the complete dissolution of propolis wax and menthol, mixes well with lanolin, thereby achieving a viscous homogeneous structure of the finished cream. Additionally, sunflower oil has a nourishing and softening effect on the skin, increases the penetrating ability of the cream.

 Menthol - GFH, Art. 387 - colorless crystals with a strong smell of peppermint, from which it is obtained.

 Menthol was introduced into the formulation as a biologically active substance. It has a calming, analgesic and antiseptic effect, has anti-inflammatory and skin-irritating effects, reflexively causes the expansion of coronary vessels, increases the permeability of skin capillaries.

 Fir oil - OST 13-221-86, FS 42-2109-92 - a clear liquid from colorless to light yellow or greenish in color with a specific smell of coniferous forest.

 In the formulation of massage cream, fir oil is introduced as a biologically active component. It contains more than 35 biologically active substances, including phytoncides, which have a detrimental effect on microorganisms, vitamins and essential oils, which stimulate the body's defenses to fight the disease and help increase blood circulation in the organ with which the oil comes into contact.

 Fir oil, thanks to its composition of biologically active substances, has a fungicidal, deodorizing, antiseptic, distracting and wound healing effect, it has a refreshing, tonic and restorative effect. In addition, fir oil has anti-inflammatory, antihistamine and strong analgesic effects, increasing the permeability of skin capillaries and skin temperature, it has a pronounced warming effect.

 Compositions containing fir oil have an amazing "permeability factor": their biologically active substances easily penetrate through the skin into tissues directly to the site of inflammation.

 Therefore, the introduction of fir oil in the formulation of a massage cream gives it additional healing properties due to the deep penetration of biologically active substances into the body tissues.

 Viburnum oil - TU-64-5-311-088-92 is an oily liquid from brown to reddish-brown in color with a specific smell characteristic of the raw materials used.

 Viburnum oil is introduced into the cream as a valuable biologically active component. It contains saturated and unsaturated fatty acids - palmitic, oleic, stearic, meristic, palmitoleic, as well as essential fatty acids linoleic and linolenic (vitamin F factor, which are actively involved in fat metabolism and play a large role in the prevention of a number of diseases): no less 30 mg% carotenoids (provitamin A); in addition - a very high (over 900 mg%) content of tocopherol (vitamin E group) and their unique ratio.

 Linoleic and linolenic acids (vitamin F factor) prevent and heal dermatoses, strengthen the walls of blood vessels, making them more elastic. Vitamin F enhances the lipolytic activity and regenerative ability of the epidermis, improves blood and lymph formation, increases the fat content in all layers of the skin.

 Carotenoids (provitamin A) stimulate the activity of skin cells, eliminate its flabbiness, increase turgor, support cell growth, favorably affect vision, improve the immunological status of the body.

 Tocopherols (Vitamin E Group) - a natural antioxidant (antioxidant). They participate in the biosynthesis of heme and proteins, cell proliferation, cellular and tissue respiration, improve the activity of the cardiovascular system, and increase the physical endurance of the body. In addition, they soften the skin, regulate the metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, due to antioxidant properties increase the skin's resistance to age-related changes, to radiation, and to carcinogenesis processes.

 Viburnum oil in the composition of the cream for massage due to the biologically active substances contained in it has a complex effect: nourishes and softens the skin, has a beneficial effect on tissue metabolism, improves skin elasticity and normalizes its functions, supports the processes of vision, growth and immunological parameters of the body, increases resistance after physical overstrain, prolonged chronic diseases.

 The use of viburnum oil in the formulations of massage creams from the prior art has not been identified.

 Massage cream "Health", made from the above natural ingredients, has a delicate smell, is quickly absorbed by the skin, does not cause local irritation and general allergies, has anesthetic and warming effect, relieves muscle fatigue and tension, helps strengthen them, improves gliding.

 The inventive cream, having all the properties of a massage cream, has an additional therapeutic and preventive effect: due to the unique selection of biologically active components and the deep penetration into the tissue, the cream improves peripheral blood circulation, affects metabolic processes not only in the skin, but also in the muscle tissues, has a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular and endocrine systems, increases the immunological status of the body.

 The proposed massage cream is simple in formulation and does not contain ballast substances. Despite the small number of components, they ensure the achievement of the technical task and a wide impact on the human body, due to the fact that each component in the formulation performs several functions.

 The inventive composition of the massage cream "Health" is optimized by the number of components included in its composition.

 A change in the content of the components that make up the cream formulation leads either to a change in its physicochemical parameters (viscosity), or to an imbalance in the biologically active substances (including vitamins), which ultimately reduces the effectiveness of the cream.

 So, if the amount of structuring components — propolis wax and vegetable oil — is lower in its composition below the claimed limit, the optimal structure and viscosity of the finished cream is not ensured, an increase above the upper declared limit creates an excess viscosity — a rigid structure, which prevents the massage process from being carried out.

 With a decrease in the amount of biologically active substances - menthol, fir oil and viburnum oil in the composition of the cream below the claimed limit, the biologically active effect decreases, their introduction above the claimed limit creates an excess biologically active effect, which is extremely undesirable.

The method of preparation of the cream is as follows. In a melting pot equipped with a steam jacket and a stirrer, lanolin is charged and heated to 70 ^° C. until the lanolin is melted. Then, at the same temperature, propolis wax is loaded into the boiler and mixed until a homogeneous mass is obtained.

Sunflower oil and viburnum oil are loaded into a cream reactor, also equipped with a jacket and a stirrer, heated to 70 ^° C and the filtered mass from the smelter is pumped to the reactor.

Menthol and fir oil are fed into the free melting pot, mixed until the crystals of menthol dissolve and the mass is pumped to the reactor. The contents of the reactor are thoroughly mixed, cooled to 25-30 ^o C, after which the mixer is turned off, the cream is allowed to stand and served on the packaging.

Example. In a melting pot equipped with a steam jacket and a stirrer, 435 kg of lanolin is loaded and the contents of the boiler are heated to 70 ^° C. with stirring until the lanolin is completely melted. Then 100 kg of propolis wax is loaded into the boiler, the mass is heated to 70 ^° C until complete melting.

240 kg of sunflower oil and 15 kg of viburnum oil are loaded into a cream preparation reactor, also equipped with a jacket and stirrer, heated to 70 ^° C and the filtered mass from the melting pot (lanolin and propolis wax) is pumped to the reactor.

60 kg of menthol and 150 kg of fir oil are fed into the free melting pot, stirred until the crystals of menthol are completely dissolved, the mass is pumped into the reactor, stirred for 10 minutes, after which cooling is started by passing cold water through the jacket. When the temperature of the cream reaches 25-30 ^o C, the mixer is turned off, the cream is left standing and a sample is taken to match the quality of the cream TU, it is served on the packaging.

 Other examples of the preparation of the cream are shown in the table at the end of the description.

 Thus, the use of massage cream "Health" allows you to achieve the following technical result; the cream is simple in component composition; The cream formulation includes only natural ingredients; the cream allows you to achieve severe hyperemia of the skin, improves turgor and skin color, provides an excellent sliding effect during the massage procedure; the cream has a pronounced warming and analgesic effect; the cream eliminates vitamin deficiency, helps to increase the elasticity and plasticity of the skin, improving the "grabbing effect" (facilitating skin retraction during massage): The cream has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effects; the cream, due to the BAS complex included in its composition and unique penetrating ability, has a beneficial effect not only on epidermal cells, but also a relaxing effect on the body, indirectly affecting the enzymatic metabolism and immunological parameters; the cream does not cause any allergic manifestations of the body, even with prolonged use, it can be successfully applied in sports medicine for children.

 Due to such a set of properties, the massage cream "Health" is recommended for preventive, as well as sports and therapeutic massage for degenerative diseases of the spine and joints, myositis, bruises and other diseases of the musculoskeletal system. It is also recommended for massage for people whose activities are associated with severe physical exertion and after prolonged chronic diseases.
