Collection: Brand: Absorbine

Like many significant achievements, Absorbine® grew out of humble beginnings—and through the tenacity of someone willing to question the status quo. In this case, it was a young woman in late 19th-century Massachusetts: Mary Ida Young. Her husband, Wilbur Fenelon Young, was an enterprising piano deliveryman who relied on the couple’s team of horses to make deliveries throughout the Northeast. Through her knowledge of healing herbs, she formulated a unique blend of herbs and essential oils into a tincture designed to increase blood flow and speed healing—without painful burning or blistering. That was the start of what Absorbine has become today.
