NOTE: (6/30/22 update: NC Senate Bill 455 to keep hemp legal in NC.) I was of the understanding that CBD (hemp derived) products were legal in NC (my home state). It seems it is by federal law but by NC law maybe not. Here is a very interesting article on NC CBD law (click here) and I'll leave it up to readers to make their own personal decision. ⚖️

For some folks, pain is an ever-present enemy. It robs them of the ability to perform everyday tasks, experience the joy of movement, and at times drives them into a pit of despair.

They try standard over-the-counter pain relievers in ever increasing dosages. They often trod the path of opiates to gain that bliss of relief. They have surgical procedures to deaden nerves and provide relief through various methods. 

Often, they get no relief.

The natural compounds in CBD topicals provide a measure of relief to many through applications made from  hemp derived cannabis. Crescent Canna's CBD Recovery Cream contains over 99% pure CBD isolate derived from hemp. (Keep reading for the discount code.)

My thoughts: This is a very pleasant smelling, soothing cream. I applied it to my hurting knee and also to the soft padded area at the base of my thumb. Both times I found some relief from the ache and pain I was experiencing in those areas. I found this to be a very pleasant cream and envision it as a really helpful product for when one overdoes activity in the garden or as a weekend athlete. I also have shared my bottle of the 5,000mg Recovery Cream with a family member who has major hip and knee problems. He, too, felt it to be helpful in relieving his pain.  CBD Recovery Cream click here to buy

Layering pain relief: 

I have found that normal dosages of pain relievers sometimes just don't get the job done. But I have also found that I can layer the products. By that I mean I might use a topical  application and then if that doesn't provide full relief, add an oral product as well. You have to be certain your body can tolerate each of the products and that you don't combine products that contain the same items causing over-dosing. Or perhaps you can use different products alternately on the off-hour.  I do think that topical relief such as the Crescent Canna recovery cream can benefit in a pain relief regime.

Real Time Pain Relief® Homeopathic products for hurting feet and split, chapped lips [Review & Giveaway]

Real Time Pain Relief Foot Cream, Homeopathic Lip Balm, and MAXX Bath Bomb

Source your pain relief from natural ingredients and with a company that's been around awhile

Today we're looking at a terrific Foot Cream and a fantastic Homeopathic Lip Balm that bring great relief.  My thoughts on the products: 

Foot Pain Relief Cream

I often get achy feet and that is part of the aging process, I know. Sometimes I'm just wearing the wrong shoes too long. Sometimes I'm simply on my feet too long. Sometimes I just wake up and have hurting feet. I have found that massaging a bit of this Real Time Pain Relief Foot Cream actually brings relief and the pain is soon gone. Comes in 3 sizes and the $10 size is great for travel.

Product information (from RTPR website) click here to find it

Made with Eucalyptus, Menthol and Tea Tree Oil, Real Time FOOT cream  provides fast, targeted pain relief while delivering  deep  moisture to dry, cracked feet.  Real Time FOOT Cream is effective on many types of foot and ankle pain including: gout, plantar fasciitis, bursitis, arthritis, and dry, cracked feet.  Plus, the quickly absorbing formula of Real Time Foot Cream makes it perfect for use any time of day.

Homeopathic LIP Balm

This is the most soothing lip balm I have ever had the pleasure to use. I've used many from the bee balm sticks that are mostly wax to the C--- Sticks of many flavors. I've used other brands and still get cracks in my lips, peeling lips, and those annoying little cracks in the corners. It comes in a jar with enough to last for awhile ($10) and in a stick ($5).

This Homeopathic Lip Balm from Real Time Pain Relief is superb. When I awaken in the morning and there is a pesky crack in the corner, I reach for this balm and it sooths and protects while helping aid in the healing process. Frankly, I think it actually heals faster using this. It isn't a "medicine" but it is a great product and I love it.

Product information (from RTPR website) click here to find it

Real Time Homeopathic LIP Balm delivers rich moisture, while offering protection  from harsh weather. Made with  12 of Nature’s Ingredients including  Arnica, Jojoba Oil, Lanolin, and Aloe Vera, Real Time Homeopathic LIP Balm soothes lips within minutes of application. 

Bath Bombs: 

Maxx Bath Bomb and Gentle Bath bomb are the two options.  The Gentle Bath Bomb  uses peppermint extract instead of peppermint oil so that there isn’t any cooling effect. The cooling in MAXX is minimal but for some too much. These do not smell of peppermint. They have a very pleasant scent. The Gentle Bath Bomb is pleasantly scented, though not "perfumed," the water becomes silky smooth and it was very relaxing to soak and de-stress using this product. My skin felt wonderful in the bath and afterward, and I felt relaxed and fresh.

What is your process of dealing with pain? The key is to begin with the less invasive to your body and proceed until pain relief is attained.

Use of heat and cold: 

• Some pain responds to ice packs or cold packs that apparently slow the swelling and inflammation that are associated with overuse and injury.
• Use of warm heat packs delivers comfort and relief to injured areas. Good for stiffness and the pain associated with stiffness. 

Use of topical applications such as creams, lotions, and roll on liquids:

• Creams, lotions, and roll on applications with "heat" or "peppers" tend to stimulate the surface nerves and cause a sensation of heat to the area. This provides a relief that is complex involvement of mind and surface nerve sensations overriding the deeper source of pain. Effective in some cases. Con: can cause irritation to sensitive skin.
• Menthol based creams, lotions, and roll on applications whose main ingredient is menthol which is a nasal sensory as well as a topical sensory product that seems to provide relief. Effective in some cases. Con: can have an offensive scent for when you are away from home. 

Ingestion of Over the Counter medications: Aspirin, Acetaminophen (Tylenol), Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) or naproxen (Aleve, Naprosyn) - Cons: Some cause irritation of stomach and bowel, acetaminophen can cause liver damage, and NSAIDs can cause bleeding.

Prescription medications: Pills, patches, liquids - These are the "big guns" and care must always be taken. Con: some can be addictive.

So where does that leave you when you are hurting?

Once you have tried the heat/cold treatment, you have the option of a topical over the counter and all natural homeopathic product line - Real Time Pain Relief®.  Some products they have graciously provided for me to try for my personal aches and pains and those of my husband include:

I definitely keep topical creams, lotions, and roll on products in supply so I can simply reach for them. There are a few from drug stores I've come to rely on, but I think these Real Time Pain Relief® products can certainly, and perhaps even better, take care of these discomforts for me.

They can be ordered online through their website or even Amazon (Real Life Pain Relief®). Doing a quick check, I found that even Walmart carries the products online.

Real Time Pain Relief®: Sports Cream, MAXX Pain Relief lotion & MAXX Bath Bomb, & Hemp Oil Plus

 

My thoughts on the products: 

Bath Bombs: Maxx Bath Bomb and Gentle Bath bomb are the two options.  The Gentle Bath Bomb  uses peppermint extract instead of peppermint oil so that there isn’t any cooling effect. The cooling in MAXX is minimal but for some too much. These do not smell of peppermint. They have a very pleasant scent. The Gentle Bath Bomb is pleasantly scented, though not "perfumed," the water becomes silky smooth and it was very relaxing to de-stress using this product. My skin felt wonderful in the bath and afterward and I felt relaxed and fresh.

Hemp Oil Plus Topical Lotion: I've used this product several times. The Hemp Oil Plus topical lotion is pleasant to use and I have used it at the base of my neck, on my shoulders, and lower back. I felt the pain and discomfort I was experiencing decrease. Last evening shortly before bedtime, my back began aching in earnest and I had shooting pain/spasms going down both legs. This usually portends a rough night. I decided to try the Hemp Oil Plus. I applied it liberally to my lower back and down both legs (sides). I did NOT have a rough night and the spasms went away. I attribute it to this product. Only time will tell is that is what helped, but I was totally impressed and this is a product I will definitely utilize to give it a full opportunity to ease my senior citizen aches and pains.

MAXX Pain Relief: I used the MAXX Pain Relief to relieve my husband's chronic back pain (from fractured disc and other old age back problems). He said he thought it helped some and I know he didn't complain while using it. So that's a plus! I found it to have menthol scent and the feeling of heat that menthol provides. I used it when my back was just a little achy but I was headed out to run errands. I might need some help preventing backache. It seems to have helped since I finished my errands with no sign of backache.

Sports Cream: I find that as a senior citizen, I have aches and pains when I awake in the morning. Sitting a long time also brings them on. And as a senior that tries to care for her health and bones and muscles, I frequent a local gym for some cycling, treadmill, and strength building. It sometimes brings on a bit of muscle and join soreness later in the day and even the next day. The Real Time Pain Relief® Sports Cream is a ramped up cream for weekend warriors and day-in-day-out athletes who experience muscle fatigue, soreness, and just simple body stress that hurts. The verdict is still out on my son's use of the Sports Cream as he is doing intensive prep for a major outdoors even later this summer. Will try to give his "take" on the product, too.

I definitely keep topical creams, lotions, and roll on products in supply so I can simply reach for them. There are a few from drug stores I've come to rely on, but I think these Real Time Pain Relief® products can certainly, and perhaps even better, take care of these discomforts for me.

Salonpas® pain relief can help you keep your resolve to exercise more! [Review & Giveaway]

New year's resolutions to exercise more sometimes need pain relief aids to keep on goal

Summer and all the activity that you engage in during those warm (or hot) days is long past. Winter has arrived and with it the tendency to slow down or actually stop "doing" those things that keep our bodies strong, active, and alive.

After the indulgences of the holidays, our bodies feel sluggish and, yes, perhaps a bit heavier or thicker around the middle. That means we've got to get moving. Get stretching. Get exercising. And doing those things after a few weeks of inactivity can prove to cause bone wearying and muscle aching. And if you've not done those treadmill jaunts or bike rides, lifted or pulled on the weights for awhile, then your body is going to give you a rude awakening. You're going to feel it!

I have found that my first line of defense is heat (or for some, ice) and then applying a topical product. Sometimes a gel, a spray, a cream, and one of the patches. I've found some to help and some to do nothing. But before I pop a pill, I try topical!

Salonpas® has a great assortment of products in types and sizes that will fit many needs. Did you know that..... they have...

The First and Only FDA-Approved OTC Pain Patch. SALONPAS® PAIN RELIEF PATCH is the first and only FDA-Approved OTC topical pain patch for the temporary relief of mild to moderate muscles and joints aches and pains associated with arthritis, sprains, strains, bruises and simple backache.

I really like their 4% Lidocain patch. I've seen prescription lidocain patches used in emergency rooms and prescribed for those with lots of pain, but this is the first I've seen where you can get it right off of the drug store shelf!

The spray can is super good for applying a quick shot to those hard to reach spots and is fast drying. I love that Salonpas® has such a great variety of products and several sizes of patches. If you like "chilling" or "icy" pain relief, they've got it. If you like it "hot," they've got it. If you want small or large patches, it is available. The gel, spray, and patches provide easy to use topical applications that might be just what your aches and pains need.

So get moving! Get busy! Salonpas® is "spot on" for relief. And they are so confident in their product, that they are going to provide one of  Chat With Vera's readers a box of their pain-relieving-goodies.

OxyRub® Pain Relief Cream from Healthy Directions & Developed by one of the world's most renowned pain specialists - Dr. Joseph Pergolizzi

Review: I've lived with pain, particularly back pain, for years and have taken a variety of over-the-counter and prescription medicines to achieve relief. Sometimes it is really hard to get that relief.

My usual method of dealing with pain is to try topical methods before consuming pills. This usually works for mild pain or discomfort. Then I progress to low dosage OTC pills. And then if it is truly impeding my ability to function, I resort to prescriptions. Prescriptions are really hard on my system so I avoid them as much as possible.

When given the opportunity to try OxyRub® I was very interested because it promotes that this provides pain relief that seems to work better than most rub in pain relief creams.  I love this information taken directly from their website.....

OxyRub's secret lies in a patented blend of menthol, emollients, and oxygenated essential oil in a soothing, non-greasy cream that's absorbed into the skin with NO burning or irritation!

Clinical studies prove OxyRub has twice the pain-fighting power

In a double-blind, randomized, controlled head-to-head study, OxyRub was put to the test against a leading, mainstream menthol-only cream. After eight days, users reported their acute pain decreased by an impressive 27.8% compared to just 13.7% in the menthol-only group. That's more than double the effectiveness of the mainstream pain cream!

I used the OxyRub® Pain Relief Cream on knees, back, and shoulders. I was totally amazed that the scent of this menthol based cream was not overbearing and the little scent it did have dissipated in a few minutes. A real plus when you need to apply the cream and go out 'n about and don't want to smell like you've been dipped in menthol.

Next, I found that it helped me in that the mild pain and discomfort of knee, shoulder, and back pain was relieved and in a short time. When this episode was in full-bloom, I used the cream several times during the day achieving relief.

I did have an episode of more sever back pain to occur and tried the cream. It did not get deep enough for this and I had to take some pills to get to it. But the OxyRub® Pain Relief Cream was my first step in achieving relief.

I can recommend this as a product to use for pain relief that is not unpleasant to use and will provide some measure of relief. Dr. Pergnolizzi's OxyRub® Pain Relief Cream seems to me to be a quality product.

About the Product (provided by manufacturer: OxyRub® pain relief cream rubs away pain—right on contact!

OxyRub® works within minutes to:

• Dissolve arthritis pain in knees, hips, fingers, and wrists
• Relieve tense, painful back, leg, and neck muscles
• Cool and soothe stubborn bursitis pain
• Take the throbs out of bumps, sprains, and bruises

Pain is the single most common reason that patients seek medical care—and yet, there have been shockingly few truly effective solutions. NOT ANYMORE. Now, not even the worst chronic pain can stand up to the pain-relieving power of OxyRub. Whether you've been fighting arthritis pain for ages or just suffer from aches and pains after a round of golf or an afternoon in the garden, OxyRub pain relief cream can eliminate your pain—quickly.

OxyRub combines the pain-relieving power of menthol with a patented, proprietary oxygenated essential oil into a soothing, pleasant-smelling cream.
