The Herbal Warm-Up and Recovery Oil Trusted by Athletes Worldwide
Our Story
Thai Oil Origins
About Athlon Rub
Athlon Rub was born from a deep passion for athletic excellence, inspired by the centuries-old tradition of Thai herbal remedies. Recognizing the rigorous demands athletes place on their bodies, we set out to create a powerful yet natural product to support performance, recovery, and overall wellness.
Our journey began by closely studying the ancient Thai methods used by Muay Thai practitioners, who rely on potent herbal liniments to sustain intense training and expedite healing. With the wisdom of traditional formulas as our foundation, we innovated and refined our approach, enhancing these ancient remedies with cutting-edge science to improve effectiveness and absorption.

At Athlon Rub, our mission is clear: we are committed to providing athletes, trainers, and fitness enthusiasts with a superior, trusted solution to support their athletic journeys. We believe that optimal performance starts with exceptional recovery and holistic care, and our carefully crafted products embody this belief.
Proudly made in the USA in an FDA & ISO Registered, state-of-the-art facility, Athlon Rub is Non-GMO certified and meticulously formulated without parabens, sulfates, or phthalates. Each bottle reflects our unwavering dedication to purity, quality, and effectiveness. Unlike other products which are in gels, creams, or petroleum based balms filled with coloring or emulsifiers to uniform the desired product's appearance and color, Athlon Rub stays truest to its natural form from oils and extracts.
