Poor Circulation Body Wash Recipe

Some people are prone to poor circulation, which causes cold hands and feet.  A healthy diet and exercise are great for helping improve blood circulation throughout the body!  During the cold weather, however, some people may need extra help to get the blood pumping better.  This body wash pouch was created using essential oils believed to help improve circulation and stimulate the body.  As a bonus, the nettle leaf also aids in circulation as well as helps soothe itchy, irritated skin.
