Sixtus USA today announced the US availability of a sports care product-line used by sports teams and athletes in Europe for the past 60 years. Sixtufit Olympia Sport and Massage products provide athletes with a wide range of muscle care products including sport cremes, oils and balsam for use before, during and after sports or activities. They are derived from plant oils as well as fresh alpine herb extracts and natural, pure essential oils.

More than just topical agents, Sixtus products can actually help loosen muscles, prevent soreness, stiffness and cramps. Their unique ingredients actually stimulate intensive blood-flow and decrease lactic acid build-up, enhancing performance and guarding against stiffness. In a German University study researchers found that lactic acid levels and subsequent "days of muscle soreness" were significantly reduced in athletes who used the Sixtufit Olympia Start and Muscle Oil before competition/exercise. Additionally Olympia Active Balsam/Oil was developed for fast recovery after sport or extreme physical exercise. The product intensifies blood circulation and skin vitalization, which can increase performance and prevent uncomfortable muscle stiffness.

Sixtus targets specific problems in other sports such as cycling, rowing and horseback riding. In these sports the buttocks or the inside thigh are a particularly stressed area. Painful "rubbing sores" can influence performance and force you to quit competition/exercise that moment. Through long laboratory tests and tests on athletes, Sixtus created a solution: The Sixtufit Buttock Crème By decreasing friction it protects against chafed skin and sores, while nourishing skin and making it more elastic. The complete Sixtufit product-line offers a variety of solutions for the special needs of athletes. From professional to recreational athletes, Sixtufit provides professional muscle care for everyone.
