Magnesium Cream

This cream is amazing! My husband suffers from frozen shoulder, torn ligaments in the other shoulder, lower back pain, knee pain and neuropathy in his feet. He hasn't been able to raise his arms above shoulder level for a few years now because of the pain. The first time I put some Pain Relief Cream with Magnesium on his shoulders he was able to raise his arms over his head, then twist his arm around and scratch his back! Amazing. I then rubbed cream on his lower back, the back of his knees, his calves and feet. For the first time in years, he slept for 5 hours straight! Every night at bed-time for the last month or so I have been rubbing this cream on him and he's sleeping so much better. Not only that, but since I have been rubbing this cream on his feet every night his feet haven't swollen up once and he seems to have more muscle control in his feet.

My shoulder doesn't ache like it used to either. = )

Another fabulous use of this cream is: a few nights ago my daughter woke up at around 11:00 crying because her legs hurt. Having experienced growing pains myself I know how painful it is but I was also really tired and wasn't looking forward to a night full of rubbing her legs.. so, I put some Pain Relief Cream on each of her calves and rubbed it in well, She slept all night. The next morning I asked how she slept and about her legs and she said she slept really well and her legs didn't hurt again at all. I think this is my favorite use of this cream! = )

Update March 2016: We just moved and I realized that I'm way to old for that sort of thing! Every muscle in my body was sore. But.. I rubbed some of this on my sore muscles and instant relief! This cream truly is amazing!

Update December 2017: My daughter has found another use for this cream! It helps with menstrual cramps. Just rub some topically on the lower abdominals...

Healer's Touch

Check out this salve:

"The name of this product should be Healer's Miracle because I just witnessed a miracle with it! I am a high functioning quadriplegic without the use of my legs and impaired hands and fingers. But, I am very independent. While I was cooking a hamburger patty on the stove I knocked the pan of boiling grease into my lap. I quickly poured a bottle of room temperature filtered water, over my clothes to try to stop the burning and then went to get undressed. I found a dark red burn on my thigh. I have burned myself several times and I am sure it would have been 2nd degree. Within about three minutes I was able to get some Healer's Touch on the sore. Almost immediately the red started getting lighter and within 30 minutes the skin on my leg was completely back to normal. I can't comment on the sting because I don't have feeling in my legs. But wow, this product is an absolute miracle! Everyone should have it in their first aid kit."

Last week my son went to scout camp. I sent sunscreen with him but he obviously didn't put it on his legs... His legs got horribly sunburned so we rubbed aloe vera jell all over them for about a week.. Then I finally figured out how to bandage them so I could effectively use Healer's Touch on it. So, after a week of using Aloe Vera Jell on his legs, this is what they looked like:

This picture doesn't do justice to just how bad his legs were..

Then I gooped Healer's Touch all over:

and wrapped it in paper-towels and packing tape:

This was done Friday evening at around 9:47ish...

I tried to get him to leave it on for 24 hours but he only lasted until 8:30 the next night.

I used scissors to cut off the paper-towel bandage then carefully wiped off the Healer's Touch. It looks so much better! I should have taken another picture after his shower... His legs are doing so much better and now a few days later (it's June 25th at this writing) his legs are just pink and no longer sore. No more peeling no more pain.

If I had figured out the paper-towel packing-tape bandage I would have done this as soon as the heat left his sunburn. Hopefully there won't be a next time..
