Salonpas – Pain Relief Patches, Sprays and Gels
How many of you suffer with some type of chronic pain or even an acute pain that seems to come and go? I know that I’m a chronic pain sufferer just like many people that I know.
For me personally, I suffer with a rare genetic disease called Porphyria. It causes me pain from head-to-toe. Sometimes are worse than others, but the pain seems to always be there. On top of that, I have several medical problems and have had over 40 surgeries…again, pain is a big part of my life.
To make matters worse…my hubby suffers with chronic back and knee pain. His pain started about 15 years ago and is related to his job. He’s now 55 years old and they’ve gotten worse. My mom is 67 years old and she’s got chronic bone & joint pain like many people who are her age. As you can see, pain is a big part of my life and those around me.
For the past 2 years all three of us have been using Salonpas products to help relieve our aches and pains. Here is some information about Salonpas and one of their very new products:
Too many Americans are ignoring the labels on OTC pain meds and that’s leading to serious health problems according to physician and consumer surveys released by the American Gastroenterological Association. This practice puts people at risk of overdose which can lead to serious side effects such as stomach bleeding, ulcers, liver damage, among other complications, and even death.
Topical analgesics offer an alternative to systemic pain relievers that may be of value to the pill using population because the mechanism of action is local; it is targeted relief. Less medicine is needed and absorbed which potentially reduces the amount of drug working through your stomach, liver and kidneys. Consumers should check with their doctor, but topical medication should also present less drug-to-drug interaction concerns.
Hisamitsu America, a division of Hisamitsu Pharmaceutical Co., Inc., and the manufacturers of Salonpas, the one and only OTC pain patch that is FDA approved and clinically proven, maintains their commitment to providing industry leading, topical analgesic solutions with the launch of the NEW Salonpas® Pain Relieving Patch. The new latex-free Salonpas® Pain Relieving Patch (MSRP: $10.99), featuring beige stretchable fabric with rounder corners, includes 60 larger size patches, enhanced adhesion, peel resistance and improved effectiveness.
As I previously stated, my family are huge users of the Salonpas pain relieving products. For myself personally, I love using the patches and the deep relieving gel. My husband likes using the patches and the pain relieving Jet Spray. My mother likes using the pain relieving Jet Spray, the patches and the pain relieving gel-patch HOT.
One of the reasons we love the Salonpas products is because they work and they’re not narcotics! Second, I have a very sensitive stomach due to a lot of the medications that I’m on…so anytime I can bypass my stomach and use something topically, I’m all for that! Finally, the Salonpas products are affordable to use!
If you’ve never tried Salonpas products, I invite you to request a free 2 count sample pack. I think once you try this product, you’ll see the same pain-relieving benefits that my family has seen by using this product.
