Apply the mixture to the affected area, such as knees, ankles, or lower back.
Gently massage it into the skin for 5–10 minutes.
Cover with a warm cloth or bandage to help the mixture penetrate deeper into the skin.
Leave it on for 30 minutes to 1 hour, then wipe off with a warm, damp towel.
Benefits
Improves Circulation: Vicks contains menthol and camphor, which may increase blood flow to the applied area, reducing stiffness.

Reduces Swelling: The cooling sensation can help alleviate swelling and provide relief for sore joints.
Boosts Relaxation: The combination of menthol and natural plant extracts soothes muscles and promotes relaxation.
Precautions
Skin Sensitivity: Test the mixture on a small patch of skin first to ensure no irritation or allergic reaction.
Not for Open Wounds: Avoid applying to broken or irritated skin.
Temporary Relief: This is not a cure for joint issues—consult a doctor for chronic pain or mobility concerns.
