I was introduced to Real Time Pain Relief by a Holistic Nurse Practitioner...I'm also a disabled veteran who spent the majority of my working military career on my feet as a medic and nurse. To say that I'm in pain is an understatement. I've tried Bio-Freeze, Icy Hot, and other creams and skin patches including Voltaren skin cream. The Real Time Pain Relief Cream beats all of those hands down...The pain is so bad, I'm in tears at times but when I use the Real Time Pain Relief Cream, (especially after a warm shower) I feel that I can move again. It improves my range of motion so I can walk properly versus having the Tim Conway shuffle. I get a kick out of applying it. It feels so good. And the smell is so nice and not offensive like some other menthol products. This is the ONLY cream that I will recommend for severe osteoarthritis pain and other pain issues such as a backache, headache, neck ache, etc. I wish more people with pain knew about this wonderful product. I'm doing what I can to get the word out there. I've referred quite a few people. I just hope they try it! If you are on the fence about ordering this wonderful pain relief product, just do it! You won't be sorry!!! As an RN, I'm all about helping people and this cream is a true gift for those who suffer from pain.
