Herbal Mana DMSO

I have ordered 3 different products from Herbal Mana,
all of which have DMSO which enables deep penetration.

The first product arrived today:
DMSO and Aloe Vera gel (unscented)
sample 2 ounce jar for just S&H ($5.95)

https://herbalmana.com/

They have many other DMSO products with different essential oils added.
I am expecting their Inner Warrior spray ($7.95 sample)
https://tryinnerwarrior.herbalmana.com/claim-free-bottle
and their very new CBD Infused Pain Bomb ($40) which is already out of stock.

The target area and hands have to be washed well before use because of the DMSO deep penetrating action.  My target was my right hand which has not been happy today.
Observations:
A little bit goes along way
Dries quickly without any greasiness
immediate pain relief for me
and hopefully increased range of motion with an accumulative effect of future applications.

The main danger of DMSO use is enabling skin penetration of a toxin so I decided to use it exclusively on my hands since I can wash them well before application and I have plenty of other solutions for other painful areas.  Second gel application again reduced the aches in my hands but I still have the stiffness if I try to make a fist with my right hand.
I do get the garlic taste in my mouth but do not smell garlic.
It may have helped my brain fog and sleep.
Plus I sensed that my tinnitus seemed quieter and found there was a study in 1975 claiming DMSO can ease tinnitus!

I received the Inner Warrior spray yesterday.  It did a decent job on my feet and hands easing aches and pains, except it increased the numb feeling in my toes and did not increase the range of motion in my hand.  However, if I use another product that reduces the numbness after Inner Warrior dries, it is a win-win.   My feet did not cramp during the night and my hand could make a fist easier.

I know cortisol from stress is a huge part of my sleep and pain problems.  In fact, an extensive blood test showed cortisol was my main problem, not any food sensitivities or environmental allergies.  I was very curious about the Herbal Mana Sleep and Hope blends so ordered a special bundle offer sent in an email.  It included the non DMSO creams for Inner Warrior, Sleep and Hope.  Free Roll-ons of each was added with free shipping.  Warrior and Hope roll on have DMSO and the Sleep roll on does not (I think LOL). I believe the target areas for products without DMSO do not have to be washed as well before application.

PAIN BOMB (DMSO CBD infused cream) enabled more range of motion in my hand!
a tiny bit goes a long way and lasts a few hours.
It also made my feet feel better with less of that numbing feeling I hate and totally removed random knee and ankle twinges.

The brain fog, headache, and nausea which plagued me 24/7 for weeks has finally faded away since trying DMSO.   However, I need more time to determine whether Pain Bomb with CBD or if Inner Warrior is better for me because the headache and and nausea returned a bit with the heat and humidity while trying mostly Pain Bomb.  Also Outback rollon is proving to be an easier option for my feet.  For now, I am using DMSO products mostly on my hands, wrists and elbows because easier to wash those areas and my right hand is still my major focus of pain relief.  Having watermelon before my morning workout may be a preventative solution to the headache and nausea.  It may be a heat, hydration and low blood sugar combination causing the symptoms.

Since starting Herbal Mana products, I have lost a pound or two.  It may be less pain and stress driving up my cortisol level and/or more energy revving up my metabolism. I still have a sleeping challenge and should be receiving their SLEEP product Monday.

ETA Monday July 1st:
Will be trying SLEEP tonight on my hands, feet and neck!
Just tried the HOPE cream on my hands and neck and then alittle of the HOPE roll-on on my washed hand where it was aching.  Cream does not have DMSO but the roll-on does.  I am very relaxed and chilled like I had taken a Valium.  I like it more than the effect of the CBD infused Pain Bomb.
So I am going to try the Inner Warrior cream without DMSO tomorrow morning and perhaps the Inner Warrior roll-on with DMSO on my bad hand after washing.

ETA Tuesday July 2nd: SLEEP was OK but not nearly as impressive as HOPE.
I did sleep with one wake-up to apply more but had a slight headache
Unfortunately I was hoping for a continuous sleep all night and no headache and more of an inner peaceful feeling like I had with HOPE..
Will try again tonight.
Inner Warrior cream was good upon waking on neck, hands feet and behind knees
no DMSO so I washed my hands and applied Pain Bomb
I feel relaxed but energized and headache is better.

Overall, I think Herbal Mana products are great for my chronic problems but I still like the Outback rollon for random painful areas because it is easy to apply and works well.

Pain Product Reviews

Most products were advertised on FaceBook.
Some were also on Amazon and/or Walmart.

I ordered either samples, mostly with S&H fees
or
unique products with discounts and customer satisfaction guarantees.


Deserving of actual orders:

Herbal Mana DMSO products
I will start a new post about these products because they are wonderful.
Real game changers.

Meg Relief is fantastic
best immediate acute pain killer so far!
https://megrelief.com
not only could I make a fist but breathing it in helped lift my brain fog!
also relieved very painful leg muscle cramps
just wished it lasted longer
(I reordered after receiving a totally free sample)

For random pains, Outback Pain Relief roll-on seems to be more effective than Arnica gel for injuries. It goes on nicely and smells good.  Also helped burning in toes.
I believe it to be better than Frankincense&Myrrh Neuropathy oil.
It is sold on Amazon and retail stores for ~$25 a roller.
(Best deal is three bottles for free shipping and getting other third practically free direct from the company which usually has a $4 off code   SCTCPN4).

My feet do like the ginger patches I ordered from China through AliExpress but I only use them a couple of nights a week..

Canada Hemp Oil (bought through Amazon) may be helping because I felt more relaxed with less pain last night.  I will probably reorder the Canada Hemp Oil for its health benefits.

CopperGel Ice with hemp oil seemed to help my hand but I need to test it more to see how long and how much it helps.  My toe discomfort was eased similar to the Outback roll-on but did not last as long. Application and cost wise I prefer the Outback roll-on.

Two other samples were decent tries: Teeter and Canvas 1830

Unsure about others:

MindBody Matrix sample
First day the sample seemed to help dramatically but not much change on the second day so I cancelled the large bottle and will try another sample for $5 to see if it does anything over more time.  Hand has less pain but still very stiff with minimal range of motion with this product so not a worthwhile purchase for an expensive full size bottle for me.

Joint Envy capsules energize me and may be helping a chronic headache and brain fog.
I got a bottle for just $1 but do not think it does enough to warrant another bottle.
Actually, it may be causing heart palpitations if I take more than one at a time with coffee and am supposed to take 3 a day, preferably all at once which made me very hyper.

Happy Body CMP Max cream does not seem to do anything extra for any of my major pain problems.  Arnica gel, Meg Relief, and Outback roll-on seem more effective so I requested a refund.  They gave me a refund so I give their customer service 5 stars.

The Feel Good sample ($7) may have helped my hand but not sure so did not order.
ETA: Hand seems to be the same as when trying it and now using other products.

Do Not Buy Resonance 396
7 day Sample arrived for $3.95 shipping but barely enough for one or two applications.
The first application did absolutely nothing for my hand.
Full bottle costs over $300
Total fraud

Same Old Problems

After seeing an expensive specialist for neuropathy from June 2017 to February 2018, I still have pain issues and sleeping problems.  He did help me lose weight and deflect the metabolic disease bullet including diabetes and hypertension.  Cholesterol is still high but I have learned to ignore it since the trigger for the neuropathy was probably taking a statin way too long and unnecessarily. Ironically, thanks to high HDL, the ratios do not seem to put me at risk for cardiovascular disease and my EKG and resting heart rate are text book perfect.

So lately because my right hand pain has become ridiculous, in spite of Arnica gel and Frankincense & Myrrh Neuropathy oil, I have tried various other OTC pain remedies.  A few I tried because of facebook ads are helping   I ordered and reordered ginger patches through AliExpress from China which are the same as the overpriced ones on Amazon, etc.  I liked Outback Pain Relief roll-on enough to reorder their triple pack.  It goes on nicely and seems to be effective.  I am in the middle of the Feel Good Natural Pain Cream sample pack which is definitely lessening the pain but I still cannot make a tight fist which is my goal.  I am still plagued by muscle cramps and foot discomfort and still hoping to find actual cures instead of just a bit of temporary relief.
Several other orders and samples are on the way LOL

Surprisingly, Vicks Vapor Rub seems to help more than other methol products!
Cheap Magnesium sprays help the muscle cramps after they strike.
Still love Arnica gel for injuries.

I'll update as other pain products are tried but think I may have to go the CBD oil route for sleep.   CBD oil did not seem to help much in the past but maybe the particular product I used was not effective.  For now, night time acetaminophen is my choice.
