Embrocation for relieving muscular stiffness (8)

I believe the answer is:

liniment

(Other definitions for liniment that I've seen before include "Liquid for rubbing into skin" , "Lotion" , "Medicinal liquid for the muscles" , "application" , "Embrocation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
