Yes, it's for horses and, no, we don't have a horse. A friend recommended it for our own aches and pains and most of the reviews we read were from folks who used it on themselves! It actually is pretty effective! :-)
My husband started using "Bag Balm" for a similar reason- dry cracked skin on his hands. But the smell of it actually makes me sick! So I have to leave the room when he's using it. I might look into this for my hands!
