LiveBetter Naturals ArboTrex Cream - DISCONTINUED with Aloe Vera and DMSO - Includes Lavender essential oil, 99.9% Pure DMSO, and Aloe Vera in Cream Base - Made in USA - 4 oz

I originally bought another highly rated cream that has DMSO in it, but there are also a lot of other strong smelling scents and it doesn't really do a whole lot. I was also a little afraid to try it after receiving it since the small print states that it is being sold as a "solvent". In the art world, that means to me that it will eat away other things (think turpentine LOL), and the warning stated that it could damage the skin. Yikes! I reviewed this one some while ago. I've now been using this for at least a year and a half and it is the best pain relief cream I've ever used, and I've tried a lot. First, it doesn't have a lot of the medicinal odor that many pain relief creams use due to the camphor and menthol in the others. I don't have to use much before I get relief (although I'll admit that when I start hurting in bed I also use a heat pad)...but it's the use of so little that is well worth the price and recently it was marked lower so I made sure and bought two to stock up on. Every time a friend complains of pain I share some and then they remark how great it was for them as well. I don't ever want to run out of this since it works fast, uses very little, and lasts a long while. Unfortunately, or fortunately, however one wants to look at it, I have been in extreme pain for years now. I have Plantar Fasciitis on the right foot, a swollen Achilles Tendon (an MRI showed it being strained and my ankles as being torn but the doctor only had me go to 3 months of PT for that), spondylosis in both the cervical and lumbar spines, and sciatica. I was beginning to feel hopeless at ever feeling good again. So then, I thought, with as many people who have touted the wonders of this particular jar of cream, what do I have to lose. Maybe a little skin, but maybe, just maybe I could lose some of the pain. WOW!!! Am I ever glad I finally gave in! I opened it up 3 nights ago, and almost immediately felt the pain easing away from the areas I rubbed the cream in to. I had a pretty decent night's sleep and the cream seemed to keep the pains at bay for at least 5-6 hours. Yesterday, however, I had to go to town and didn't get around to putting anything on before going. Going to town out here in rural American is a half day affair. The closest grocery stores and such are at least 35-40 mins drive away. So I wound up being back in extreme pain by the time I returned, put groceries away, cooked and ate dinner, and cleaned up from dinner. But I put some more on before settling down to watch a movie last night and voila, it seemed to ease the pains again, so before I fell asleep I put some more on and again, had another more restful night's sleep. This morning, before I even got up and started my day, I put some on my feet and my neck and they feel pretty good. I didn't get any on my lumbar spine and that's beginning to hurt, so as soon as I get this posted, I will be putting some on my lumbar spine area. I am definitely sold on this and will buy more when I start getting low, however, a little goes a long way, so I think it will probably last me for quite a long while. I highly recommend it and will be telling family and friends about it, as well. I am definitely sold!!!

This is the first time I'm using DMSO in this formulation. To now, I've used DMSO in Silver colloidal, and in a tincture for baths. This is MUCH easier to use, providing you follow the instructions sent by the manufacturer, to the letter, which I did (thanks for forwarding that important info!) I've been battling Lyme Tick Disease for over 12 years. Lyme causes multiple, debilitating symptoms, chief among which is acute joint pain. I refuse to use Big Pharm solutions for pain relief; I currently use CBD/THC oils, MSM and other short term relief. I tried this product for the first time 2 nights ago, when high humidity and impending storm caused my knee, ankle, wrist, hand and lower back joints to ache fiercely. I washed the affected areas thoroughly, then dried them, then washed my hands thoroughly before applying the cream. I applied it, thinly covering the entire affected area. I donned loose-fitting sleepwear, and went to bed. Instead of tossing and turning and yelping with pain each time I did so, I fell asleep almost instantly because I was comfortable, and enjoyed two WONDERFUL, PAIN FREE NIGHTS OF SLEEP! I can't explain how or why DMSO works, I just KNOW it DOES. Life is hard enough these days, without going through it wracked with pain. When I feel the effect wearing off, I just repeat the routine and apply more cream, sparingly. It goes a LONG way. I have already told several people similarly afflicted like me about this effective, nicely-fragranced pain remedy. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I WILL be buying more, in future, and the PRICE IS RIGHT! Thank you!

I use this DMSO Cream before I go out dancing. The bottoms of my feet get sore and this definitely turns down the pain to a manageable amount. I do use gloves to apply the cream. I was surprised that the smell was minimal. Some people say DMSO cream causes them to get a garlic taste in their mouth after applying. This doesn't do that.

Recently made my fourth purchase of the cream jar. If you're like me and prefer not to take pills, try the DMSO cream. It's light, goes on easily, and smells good. Unlike that stuff made from pepper innards, this isn't greasy and you can get wet without feeling your skin is on fire. I personally have found after using it on one of my frequent aches and pains (I'm a very active 76), that I don't need it for a day or two. It either reduces the inflammation or soothes the muscles that I don't need it for a few days. I love it and recommend it to my friends. I do not experience any kind of aftertaste in my mouth, which was the main reason I decided to try the 70% product. So glad I did.

I bought this for pain in my left foot around the transverse tarsal joint. Had a nagging pain I could not get rid of. I received this, opened it up and it smelled great. I applied it to the area of pain on my foot and I kid you not, the pain I’d had for months literally disappeared within minutes. I applied it again in the morning and have never had the pain again. Absolutely incredible. But I went to use it a couple months later and didn’t smell as good. It smells like the oil in it turned rancid. So it works great but shelf life of product seems short.

Need to heal

Great product!

I'm here reordering! When I first read some reviews of this cream I was, frankly, skeptical. I've tried so many things that didn't work. I have arthritis and get painful muscles and joints. I'm also allergic to Nsaids and Ibuprofen. Tylenol helps, but not enough and I really need to keep active so as not to not stiffen up. So, I decided to try this DMSO cream. WOW! It works instantly and for several, up to five, hours for me. I've used it for a headache, on my back for burning back pain, and on my legs for nerve pain. It works everywhere! I suggest rubbing it in very well. The odor is pleasant, not too harsh or sharp like a menthol rub. It doesn't tingle nor feel hot, just takes away the pain. Highly recommend!

Obtuve lo que quería. Calidad. Muy buen producto.
