As a long-time pain sufferer, any product that seems too good to be true leaves me skeptical... as it should. I have dealt with severe, chronic pain for over 10 years and was diagnosed two years ago with Intractable Pain (IP). For those of you who don't know what that means, I am in pain nearly all day, every day. I have neurological problems, headaches, and suffer a host of side effects that are not at all pleasant. (You can read more about IP here.)
I have tried everything. Physical therapy, biofeedback, EMS/TENS, ultrasound, massage, chiropractic care, spinal injections/nerve blocks, accupuncture/accupressure, prescription medication and yes, even surgery. I have also fallen pray to the promises of many over-the-counter products that promise pain relief:
A whole host of vitamins, supplements and nonprescription medication. Patches that either fall off mid-use OR stick too well thus hurting and/or leaving areas of redness/broken skin when you attempt to take them off. Hot packs, cold packs--combination hot/cold packs...packs that you can attach to here or there on your body. Then there's the creams: smelly creams, greasy creams, creams that stain, some that do all of the above! Ugh.
When you don't know what you're looking for, not only do you spend a lot of money needlessly; you end up becoming a guinea pig, desperately searching for adequate pain management. Sure, some things work a little, help a little, make life a little easier. But most are a huge waste of money!
Then, two years ago I found the answer... a pain clinic with a caring doctor that knows what works and what doesn't. Imagine that! Thanks to him, I have narrowed my search, using the nonprescription items that he has tested with his own patient population, to ensure effectiveness.
He even put out a wonderful handbook earlier this year, called "What To Do While Looking For A GOOD Pain Doctor." Get your FREE copy here.
Since then, I have found what works for me, and have had enough pain relief to go from sitting around/laying around, in such ercruitiating pain that I couldn't do much else -- to launching THIS VERY SITE in order to help others. It may not seem like much to you, but for me, it's been THE miracle of all miracles!
Then, this past Christmas, I received a present from Dr. T--a pain spray. Sure, I was skeptical. But, after a few sprays, the headache I had melted away--I was SMILING. It was magical. RELIEF! Instantly! Like nothing I had ever tried. Sure, other things had worked for me. But not so quickly. Not like this!
So, here in this blog, I will detail the three pain sprays I believe in most. I will tell you what makes each one special, which one I like most and why, and give you the links to purchase them, should you wish to try them for yourself. If not, please try to find them locally--it's worth the effort, because they are WONDERFUL!
ThePainStore.com's OFFICIAL REVIEWS:
The Absolute BEST Topical Pain Sprays
My #2 Choice of 4 oz Pain Relievers: Biofreeze
Having never tried a pain spray before, Biofreeze amazed me. I had a horrific headache, getting caught in traffic on the way to my doctor's office. He presented the bottle of Biofreeze to me as a Christmas present! It was by far the best present I got for Christmas 2008! My headache lessened, I instantly felt better. For a chronic pain sufferer, that's pretty powerful!
Biofreeze is very popular, and because of it's use mainly in clinics, it's harder to get, and as such, is also one of the more expensive sprays. Is it worth the price? Absolutely! Are the other options? Sure, we carry two. Biofreeze is unique in that it contains Ilex and several herbal extracts not used in other products. I love it! Sprays at any angle and the relief lasts for up to two hours. It's wonderful!
Gets 4.5 out of 5 stars, and is ThePainStore.com's #2 choice for 4 oz pain sprays. It would be PERFECTION if only it was easier to get, and was slightly less expensive!
My #1 Choice of 4 oz Pain Sprays: StoPain
StoPain is our top pick for 4 oz pain sprays! It's effective for instant relief of headaches with no medication needed, which is a true miracle for me! I cannot imagine life without pain sprays anymore.
Compares to Biofreeze and I would say it's hard to distinguish between the two. Contains 8% menthol compared to Biofreeze's 10%. Definitely less expensive! Sprays at any angle and the relief lasts for up to two hours. It's wonderful!
Because of it's price and the fact that it's much easier to use, StoPain is ThePainStore.com's official choice for #1 Pain Spray, 4 oz Size.
Note that right now it's even less expensive: StoPain has graciously provided ThePainStore.com with a limited supply of $2 rebate forms. With purchase, you will receive this rebate, and get an even better deal on your first purchase of StoPain, thru Dec 31, 2009! (Limit one rebate per person or address.)
DRUMROLL PLEASE...
My #1 Choice of ALL Pain Sprays: MyOmega
MyOmega gets voted #1 because it provides instant pain relief, but more than that, the relief lasts! MyOmega has time-released Ice Pearls that keep the menthol penetrating into your muscles, continuing your pain management for longer than any other pain spray I've used.
The first pain spray I ever tried was Biofreeze, which was exceptional, however, I have been swayed by MyOmega. Not only do you get TWICE the amount (8 oz instead of Biofreeze's 4) for just a few dollars more, but you get more menthol and a more lasting relief!
It's not just our #1 Best Pain Spray, it is by far our bestseller... our #1 Topical.
So, get our most highly recommended pain relief spray today--you won't be disappointed! Treats muscle pain, headaches, even sprains or strains, and inflammation too! You will be pleasantly surprised by this product. It's true targeted pain relief in a spray. More than that, it's a 5-star product! You will feel better in seconds. It's a miracle in a can -- I keep pain spray with me wherever I go!
