Invigorate for Pain
I have been given this product as part of a product review through the Chronic Illness Bloggers network. Although the product was a gift, all opinions in this review remain my own and I was in no way influenced by the company.
Pain relief.
We all want it.
We all need it.
Often is so hard to come by.
Who am I kidding, it is impossible to come by. We have all tried the medications, we have tried all the creams, all the devices, all the promises. Yet, the pain is still there.
So, I as always hesitant trying out a pain relieving item of any description. We all know that what works for one, doesn’t work for another.
However, I am willing to be a guinea pig for us all. So lets talks Resonant Botanical's Invigorate, Pain Relieving Lotion.
“Invigorate starts with an infusion of herbs such as turmeric, valerian, devil’s claw, Manjistha and Arjuna and those are steeped in organic Grape Seed Oil for over six weeks. Then, the infused herb oil is added to organic Hemp Oil, Hemp Oil Extract, Apricot Kernel Oil, Jojoba Oil, Clove Oil Extract, and Borage Oil, essential oils such as Sandalwood and Rose Otto from the Kazanlak region of Bulgaria, and combined (emulsified) into a truly delightful pain relieving lotion. The scent is bold and bright with tones of citrus”
Thankfully this combo was not too potent, as my primary area of pain is usually my neck. And we know how I don't love smelly things.
I have been rubbing this in just before bed, adding a heat pack, and have been avoiding the need for additional pain medications. It has got me through the night well. For nights when I have woken in pain, I have tried a little more, and it has helped me head off to sleep.
I was a little disappointment that my first real foray into Hemp Oil didn't pack the punch I was thinking. Maybe it has just been talked up so much. And, truth be said, I have done no research into the topic. That being said, I feel it has done a little for my immediate pain relief, but am still unsure of the long term impact. I will keep on utilising to see the full effect.
So, for all of us, I will keep on trialling and see how I go.
