How Do You Layer Your Real Time Pain Relief?
How Do You Layer Your Real Time Pain Relief?
Almost 20 years ago, customers started sharing with us that they were applying 2 or 3 layers of our Original PAIN Relief Cream 3-5 minutes apart and loving the results. We asked our product formulator if layering could increase the effectiveness. She told us that with penetrating products (like ours) the layers drove the ingredients deeper, which would naturally increase the effectiveness.
That was all we needed to know ... and it became a family tradtion!
There are some who deal with pain on a day-to-day basis. Chronic pain can result from numerous types of illnesses and conditions, and those suffering are always searching for ways to take the pain away. Despite what type of pain you are experiencing, whether it be from an injury or a degenerative condition, most of us are willing to take any steps necessary to feel better and return to normalcy. For those who are dealing with conditions that present painful symptoms every day, the path to recovery may involve more than simply treating the symptoms. Conditions like arthritis, joint and bone deterioration, fibromyalgia, gout, sciatica, and other such disorders may take a different approach to preventing their painful symptoms. When we visit our physician, we often hear two words that may mean everything when it comes to you feeling better: lifestyle choices. 
When runners experience fatigue, the usual culprit is a lack of carbohydrates. Many believe that eating carbohydrates will make you gain fat mass, but the real problem is not burning off the calories that you consume. This means that runners need more carbohydrates in their diet to provide enough energy. Low carb diets and endurance exercise are not a good pair, as carbohydrates are what your body prefers to turn into energy. If you lack carbs, your body will start to convert protein and fat into energy, which is an insufficient form of energy for a runner. 
Is your normal office chair causing you pain, discomfort, or improper posture? Any chair that you sit in long enough can have negative effects from long-term use if the chair doesn’t support and align the body properly. Even high-tech ergonomic chairs can create certain posture problems that you may not notice until it’s too late. This is one of the main reasons millions of people are switching to stability balls while they work or sit for long periods at a time. These are simple inflatable balls that you sit on, which force you to use correct posture to balance yourself.
For those who work at a desk, in front of a computer, or on an assembly line, an organized workstation can save you from unnecessary pain, stress, and injury to the body. A workstation is any area where you spend most of your occupation time using tools, and completing tasks with your hands. For office workers, it may mean using a keyboard, mouse, and a monitor. For carpenters, it may mean standing at a workbench using various tools. Whatever your workstation may look like, it is important that you maintain proper posture while you work, and that you do not have to strain or add stress to the body while performing your job.
We live in an age where runners can stay hydrated in new and innovative ways. The old-school days of carrying your water in your hand, or only hydrating before and after you run, are long gone. It’s no surprise how crucial proper hydration is while training, not only for increasing performance but also for preventing injuries or problems that may arise from lack of hydration. With all of the devices on the market today, there’s no reason that dehydration should even be a problem. The future has brought new technology and designs for the way we carry water while running; allowing you to store water in ways that do not interfere with your run, or create an imbalance. Every runner should be taking advantage of the hydration benefits these devices provide. However, some runners still wonder, “Why can’t I just carry my water bottle in my hand while I run?” There is a very good reason: it could be creating serious problems for your body. Problems, that may seem unnoticeable at first, but can quickly lead to painful musculoskeletal conditions. How does this happen? 
Did you know that your posture could be the root cause of a lot of your aches and pains? Researchers have performed numerous studies and found that the way we hold our bodies drastically affects how we feel. They have linked poor posture habits to high stress, depression, circulation issues, increased risk for diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, and slowing of intestinal activity, which leads to lots of other problems.
