Biobas Active is a range of muscle and bodycare products that derive their efficacy from naturally sourced active ingredients in combination with highly researched formulations. Biobas Active products are used by professionals participating in competitive sports and training in the health and fitness industry. But their benefits can be enjoyed by anyone for whom physical exercise or sport is a part of an active lifestyle.

The initiative behind the Biobas Active range originated in work exploring the potential of old formulations of natural ingredients in new applications. In particular, essential oils with long established efficacy in the care for and treatment of muscles were targeted as having application for active people, including competitive sports men and women, amateur and professional, and health and fitness and outdoor enthusiasts.

Preparation for exercise involves increasing circulation and so supply of oxygen to all the muscle groups. Essential oils, such as black pepper and rosemary, stimulate circulation and so oxygen supply locally in the area to which they are applied. Aches and pains after physical exercise caused by the build up of lactic acid in the muscle tissue are reduced by proper stretching out, but the detoxifying oils such as juniper berry are highly effective agents acting to dispel toxins and so significantly enhancing and accelerating the recovery process.

All Biobas Active products have specific sports applicability and all rely on natural active ingredients to enhance comfort and performance.

Biobas Active muscle care has products to warm up muscle tissue before exercise, to help reduce aches and pains after exertion, and to add to the bath to soothe and revitalise.

Biobas Active also produces a chlorine neutralising shower gel packed full of aloe vera to promote healthy hair and skin, a protective footbalm that uses the emollient power of shea butter to reduce rubbing and blistering, and a handgrip cream that facilitates the firm hold needed for sports such as golf, racket sports and climbing.
