For Horses or Humans: The Real Scoop on DMSO with Todd Bailey

We believe everyone deserves to Hurt Less and Live More. And one natural compound that’s helped thousands do just that is DMSO. Whether you're dealing with daily aches or searching for real relief from chronic pain, understanding what DMSO is—and which kind is safe to use—is the first step toward finding the comfort and freedom you’ve been missing.

We hear this question often:

“Does it really matter which kind of DMSO I use?”

Short answer? Yes. And once you know why, you’ll never look at that cheap bottle from the feed store the same way again. 

Join our Co-founder, Todd, as he clears up some myths, breaks down some facts, and gets you on the path to feeling great! No complicated science talk, just straightforward, helpful info from someone who’s been there. Watch the video or keep reading below for highlights!

What Is DMSO, Anyway?

DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide) is a natural, sulfur-based compound originally discovered as a byproduct of the wood pulping process. While it started its healing journey helping racehorses recover from injury, it didn’t take long for people to discover what it could do for pain, inflammation, and stiffness.

Here’s what makes it special:

• It fights inflammation

• Scavenges free radicals

• And blocks pain signals from nerves to the brain

Translation? It gets in there fast and helps you feel better. Naturally. But how it’s processed—and where you get it—makes all the difference in how well it works (and how safe it is).

The Problem with Feed Store DMSO

If you've seen DMSO sold at your local feed or farm store, you're not alone. It's often labeled for veterinary use and intended for horses with sore joints or injuries. But here's the catch: that’s industrial-grade DMSO—and it’s not made for people.

The bottle usually even says it: “Not for human use.”

But why? Because it hasn't been thoroughly processed to remove impurities, chemical residues, and other substances that simply don’t belong in the human body.

And here’s why that matters—DMSO is one of the most absorbent substances you can put on your skin. It pulls everything it touches through the skin barrier and into your bloodstream. That’s helpful when it's blended with clean, natural ingredients… but if it contains contaminants?

You’re absorbing those, too. And that’s definitely not ideal.

As our customer Victoria discovered:

“I tried using plain DMSO and found that it burned and peeled my skin... I discovered DMSO with Frankincense—it works, smells great, easy to apply. The hyaluronic acid protects the skin. Thank you!”

Even William’s horse noticed the difference:

“I used the ‘usual’ DMSO you buy from the feed store (my mistake), and she reacted by awkwardly pacing and turning her nose up. I applied my Herbal Mana gel to her hooves—she kept quietly eating with no reaction. Three days later, she was walking and trotting with no limp or pain.”

If your horse can feel the difference, your body definitely can.

So the next time someone says, “Just buy it from the feed store…” — think twice.

Why Purity Makes All the Difference

At Herbal Mana, we only use pharmaceutical-grade DMSO—with purity levels of 99.995% or higher. That missing 0.005%? Usually just water molecules, because DMSO naturally absorbs moisture from the air.

Then we go further:
We blend it with skin-supporting and inflammation-fighting ingredients like Frankincense and Hyaluronic Acid, which not only improve effectiveness but also protect your skin during application.

That means:

• No harsh burning or peeling

• No strong garlic smell or taste

• Just real, deep relief—fast

Because It’s Not Just About Pain…

It’s about living again.

Pain has a sneaky way of stealing joy. It keeps us on the couch when we want to be outside, turns daily routines into battles, and makes simple pleasures feel out of reach.

But with the right tools, you can change that story. That’s why we believe education is just as important as the products themselves—so you know exactly why something works, how to use it, and what you’re putting on your body.
