Looking for a quick fix for your aches and pains? Many of us reach for Aleve or Advil right away, but these pills can have side effects and usually only last a few hours. Salonpas makes a variety of topical products and patches to offer fast pain relief no side effects.
Salonpas has been in the pain relief business for a LONG time. Salonpas brand patches were first introduced in 1934. They’ve worked so well that they’ve been a worldwide market leader for many years. Now, Salonpas’ Pain Relief Patch and Arthritis Patch are the only over the counter FDA-approved topical pain relievers that provide up to 12 full hours of relief. They’ve added gels and roll-ons to the line up, too!
Patches, sprays and gels are applied at the site of pain, so they work quickly. They come in a variety of forms and sizes for different areas of the body. I’ve used the Pain Relief Patches when I’ve tweaked my back doing plyometrics or lifting and on my hips from some shoe mishaps. I found that the gel helped me when I’ve had muscular pain like a hip strain after running a marathon. In some cases, I’ve used massage and physical therapy/chiropractor, too.
Running the hilly Quarryman 10 miler this weekend after all the flat miles tweaked my ankles and shins a bit. I tried the Lidocaine Plus Pain Relieving Liquid Roll On. With my Oofos sandals, it provided some much needed soothing of the angry muscles and joints.
The folks at Salonpas sent me a huge care package. I’m going to send any 5 of the items in the bundle shown at the top of the post (except the Lidocaine Plus Roll On) to a lucky reader.
