I just thought I would drop you a line and express how thankful I am for your products. I purchased several items during the Red Rock Rendezvous this past month, Recovery Lotion, Sun Screen, Healing Balm and Lip Balms. I have been using all of them on a regular basis and can't express how well they work. The one product that has surprised me the most is The Recovery Lotion. I have had a number of injuries to my neck over the past 44 years starting with a severe neck injury in a car accident when I was 10 years old and have had pain in my neck region ever since. I have done formulas from Naturopaths and OTC NSAIDS. Since starting to use the Recovery Lotion the pain is much better managed with the daily use in the neck area on my left side. 
I found j-tree at a bike shop in Tucson Az. I am from Alaska and I have not seen this product anywhere around, so when I stumbled upon it I figured I would check it out. the first thing that hit me was the smell. Currently I am in the Army, but at home I was a road and mountain cyclist as well as a year round commuter (winters included). I have experienced some bad skin damage both to the conditions and crashes. In the Army I experience some skin damage due to crawling around, time in boots and other mishaps. I started using J-tree on the little scrapes and cuts on my hands and knees, but also on the abrasions and other damage to my feet due to hours in boots. This product works better than anything else that I have tried. I intend to make sure I have at least 2 tins with me when I leave for my impending deployment to the war zone. I foresee this product being invaluable in a desert climate where there is wind, sand and heat damage to just about everything. This photo is of an Ice Crit, where a course is plowed on a frozen lake and we race anything that works, my ride of choice in those conditions is a cross bike with 38-40c Nokian studs.
I'm a city Cow Pup & I just wanted to let you know how much my mom loves your stuff! I'm still learning the ropes, so every time I hurt myself mom rubs the pet salve on me! It's like Magic! My sore ruff feet, dry nose, bug bites & even my fur... Cause sometimes I'm stinky...So thanks!
I have used your climbing salve for my hands (and everything else!) for at least 3 years and love, love, love it! I never travel anywhere without it. When I pulled it out during a recent climbing trip at Tahquitz to try and salvage what was left of my bleeding cuticles, I realized my climbing partners have been in the dark about your amazing products. I was sure I had spread the word to everyone I knew. I had to buy them some of their own, so they can enjoy J-tree salve anytime, all the time!
Hey J Tree Dave,
Boca, our Bearded Collie put Joshua Tree Pet Salve to the test yesterday. We are traveling in Arizona, so she has her "summer hair cut", and is a bit vulnerable right now. As best we can tell, she laid down on a scorpion yesterday, and got quite an interesting sting on her butt. When we checked it last night, it looked like a red, miniature volcano, spewing puss. I washed it with warn soapy water, trimmed some fur around it and applied J Tree. This morning, the oozing had stopped, the redness and swelling were almost gone. We were lucky it wasn't a more venomous species, but all scorpion stings can be "dirty" wounds, and often get infected. JTree Pet Salve gets a 5 paws rating for this one!
Your product has been amazing. I use it [the salve] for its intended purpose, but what it works wonderfully for is fever blisters. I have used it twice for a fever blister and I have never used anything, even prescriptions, that have been as soothing and effective in healing them. It was a random thing to reach for it for that use and now I will not use anything else. Thank you for creating such a useful, healing product!
To the awesome folks at Joshua Tree Products;
I picked some salve up at smith rocks a few years ago... absolutely LOVE the stuff... what's the shop there...red point? can't remember...anyway... my friends were there a few months ago and I asked them to grab some for me, but they said there wasn't any...or they were lazy and lied to me. :) either way, my jar is definitely running out now!
About 2 years ago, I bought some J-Tree Climbing Salve at the gear shop - Nomad Ventures - out on 29 Palms Highway. I love it and use it every day, whether or not I'm climbing. I was getting low on my stock, so I found your website conveniently located on the side of the jar. I'm happy to see the Cycling Salve, and all of your other great products too! They are simply the best! (And would make great stocking stuffers for the holidays!)
Hi David Lawrence,
I have been climbing since 1986, and i have always experimented with lotions, poultices and balms to infuse tattered and damaged fingertips and palms. i even kept a tube of some unknown german lanoline-based paste in my dob kit for over a decade. I had mummified it in athletic tape to repair its' own split metal tube. I carefully meted-out portions as anodyne for pinked-out tips...until the entire greasy mass popped like a ripe tick one summer ruining my personal effects. In fall 2008 i met chris sharma at the New...the first thing i asked was could i examine his fingers. they were like sturdy sheepskin leather, no hard callouses, and no threatening splits to the quick. there was the evidence, and it's no trick. you have to keep your hands pliant and resilient. I had given-up on finding something useful and practically-packaged to make me mend, until Dario Ventura gave me a sample of JTree balm last fall. Really amazing stuff that oil-starved chapped skin sucks right up, making it fuse-together and stay strong. And it true! I rub tha shizz all over ma hands. Even good for to keep the winds off ma face in the cold days. I puts it round my nasals and it stop the chap. The screw-top poke it come in don't never come loose or threaten to ooze its guts in ma pocket or dob kit and it wont get ruinated by the winter freeze. But seriously, the combination of natural oils and bees wax actually does help repair and fortify my damaged skin, allowing me to get another days burns in on projects, despite schralped tips or red river jug rash.This chalk is basically a little spa day for your climbing hands! It keeps my hands dry and grippy while I’m working my way up hard routes, and the lavender scent is such a nice bonus.
On the way to the anchor, instead of panicking about the crux, I get a little hit of relaxing lavender to calm my mind, dry my hands, and remind me that I totally know what I’m doing. 😂
Perfect for sending hard routes—with a little Flower Power along the way! 🌸💪
This is an amazing product. Ive tried everything & nothing has relieved my muscle pain like this has. I am on my second bottle & will continue buying this. Thanks J TREE!
After time in the sun, this lotion/cream, cooled and refreshed my skin. I'm thinking I will use it even when I haven't been in the sun.
I use your lip balm exclusively while in the sun. I just did Iowa's RAGBRAI and my friend had painful sun burned lips, while my lips weren't touched by the sun, incredible!
They go on smoothly and last a long time. And the flavors - they all smell so good it's hard to choose! So far the top faves are the pina colada, orange creamsicle, holiday nog and mocha mint - mmm!
