I love these little pain patches. I have arthritis and the patches are easy for me to use at my desk at work or before I go to bed at night. I use them on my hands, my knees and even on my jaw where arthritis pain can be so painful.

Outstanding! I am an older man with lots of aches and pains in shoulders, back and knees from heavy labor in my youth. Works wherever and whever pain relief is needed. Wholeheartedly recommend.

I have a chip of bone with fluid in my ankle. It hurts daily. Cold weather and dampness makes it worse. I apply one of these and the pain goes away. I keep some in my office as well as beside my bed. The only drawback is that you will smell like a big peppermint lifesaver : )

I love this product and have been using it for years. I use it for all sorts of pain. I cut the patches down to use on my stiff fingers and wrists. I use them on my neck and back. I find them especially useful for menstral cramping. I am a teacher and I have recommended them to my students, teenaged girls with menstral cramps and athletes with sore muscles find them particularly helpful. I have recommended these things nearly 100 people and they have all been thrilled. One warning though, if you get sweaty under them they can burn a little. I live in Phoenix and have tried to not to put them on in the summer if I am going outside.

I have a very large painful spur on the back of my heel. My doctor recommended this hoping to stop the pain so I could sleep through the night. These gave some relief but I am still awakened by the pain, it's just not as severe as without the patch. I would certainly use these on any muscle discomfort and be assured of its relieving aches and pain.

I picked up a package of these little pads, took them to the drug counter to pay for them, and was told by the pharmacist that this was a very good product. She herself had used them and found them to give quick relief. I was amazed at the relief I got from this product. I have moderate arthritis in my neck. I also suffer from a lot of muscle tension in my neck. Because the medicine in this patch is absorbed into your bloodstream where you place the patch, you get quick relief from the medicine. I have found that this is a very useable product at bedtime. Usually I can get relief within ten minutes from application.
The only thing that I wish that could be changed about this product is that the pad were just a little bit bigger.

This product has given me amazing results, I used to have massage therapy for back pain, but felt that it only helped my back pain while I was getting the massage, when it was over I still had the pain. The pain was constant. I applied the medicated pads in all the areas where I felt the pain & muscle tension, I kept them on overnight. By the morning I felt as if loads of weight had been removed from my back & completely painless. (I am not exagerating, this is an amazing product with an amazing price tag!) I use it whenever I feel a little tense & it never fails, I love it!!!

This product truly delivers pain relief. It provides consistent therapy to painful fibromyalgia trigger points, muscles and joints. Easy to use, inexpensive and noninvasive.

I love it, but would love to see it in other sizes.

When I first feel back pain, I immediately apply the patch to the area. Within minutes, I can feel it working. You can leave it on for up to 8 hours, which is what I usually do, but you don't have to. It's small, non bulky and, other than the smell (kind of like Vicks Vapor rub) it's a perfect product.

my high school students and safety aides use this a lot.

I have sinus pain related migraines and for years nothing has helped. One day a coworker said I should try this. I went from blinding pain to no pain in about 2 hrs. It also works well for the PMS headache I get when nothing else did.
