JointaceVitabiotics Gel, 75 ml

This is brilliant - I believe it’s helping to facilitate my healing. I use this alongside a frankincense & immortelle repair serum, which helps to take the heat out my the joints and reduce pain. This gel has the glucosamine and chondroitin which helps to rebuild cartilage. I think combined they’re both helping with the mobility and it’s definitely speeding up my recovery.

I’ve been suffering with terrible pain and stiffness in one of my arms and then as that arm was getting better, the other arm started. The pain is particularly bad in bed at night because I am a side sleeper and it hurts to lie on my arms, causing me to wake up. I was using the stronger Voltarol gel but wanted to try something that had less chemicals. I’d never heard of this product before but the reviews were mainly positive so worth a try.The consistency is like soft wax rather than gel. The smell is not particularly to my taste but it’s just the combined essential oils. After about 10 minutes of applying it, there was a pleasant tingling sensation in my arm and to my surprise, the pain started to ease. It takes full effect after about 30 minutes and is as effective as the Voltarol. I apply it generously on my arms before bed, allowing it to sink in before putting on my bed clothes and then again when I wake in pain during the night so I can get back to sleep (even the Voltarol didn’t last the whole night for me).The benefit of this gel is that, as well as killing pain, it is helping my arms to heal and there’s no harmful chemicals which is important when you use a product long-term, so I am happy to continue using it. After a year of being in pain, my arms are slowly healing, helped by eating an anti inflammatory diet, doing a daily stretching routine, a lot of work on changing to a more positive mindset and having lots of patience!

I first encountered this product as a free sample sachet in a post-race goodie bag. It seemed to have a positive effect so I bought a whole tube. I cannot be confident that the glucosamine content here has any benefit, however the same doubts could be said about an entire industry and that does not stop me also buying other joint health supplements either.The combination of ingredients here seems to have a good muscle soothing effect and definitely a good aromatherapy effect. I use this mostly for me knees which suffer from miles of running, long commutes driving, and years of old football injuries taking their toll. I have been using this morning and night when knee pain starts to flare up, and it does seem to promote recovery - I cannot judge whether recovery would have been the same without this product, however it is a decent aromatic massage gel that does not absorb too quickly but does not linger too long, and is not too expensive, so I will be buying more.I also agree with the earlier reviewer who wrote "it is not like other 'rub' products which leave a wake of smell behind you after use. It seems that once it is well rubbed in the smell goes."

A good product

Seems to be more affective than other products on the market.

Bought it on special offer to see if it would help with the pain of my frozen shoulder. The answer to that was not really, but it was a long shot anyway. The gel does absorb well but will still leave the surface a bit sticky/clingy. Makes the area feel quite cool/cold. The smell, although not unpleasant, is very strong and after about an hour you are left with the "deep heat" kind of smell and that will hang around all day. I know it's an "aromatherapy" gel, but it is rather overpowering for my nostrils.

It eases the pain, absorbs really well and smells absolutely amazing, i can smell it through my leggings all day at gym, will 100% be my go to as a personal trainer this is the best product ive tried and ive tried a fair few!

It worked on my shoulder and eased the pain will buy another one 👍
