Product Description

10 Pads/Pct: 5 nights on, 2 off, good for 1 wk. Recommend 4 packets to start with, budget permitting. Simply the Best! And Easy as 1-2-3! Compare BodyRelief to Lower Quality Products! Simple, the Highest of Quality, Effective and with: - No Foil backing which prevents evaporation and shortens useful life. - No filler ingredients. Other ingredients are questionable. Ask "Is it possible for a product to contain that?" (Example: Some products list Negative Ions as an ingredient. That is not much different from saying their product contains sunshine!) - No animal products such as chitosan (shell-fish) which is there for its anti-bacterial properties (and not for absorbing fat as some would have you believe.) Our product has such a high percentage of wood vinegar, it needs no added anti-bacterial. - No industrial by-product wood vinegar (often bamboo) - Sealed properly to avoid a loss in effectiveness due to exposure to moisture. 5+ grms (as compared to 3.5 or even less for most)

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as bad bad as you think, March 25, 2008

This review is from: BodyRelief Foot Pads Package of 10 Patches (Health and Beauty)

I carefully read every review before buying these. I saw so many good reviews that I figured I would try them. I was worried when one of the reviewers said something about the patches being really smelly. Well, I am very sensitive to smells. I get headaches from passing people in the hallway who wear cologne. All of the products I own are fragrance-free. I clean my house with baking soda and vinegar because I can't handle the smell of "cleaners". I'm bad. So, I took the plunge anyways. First of all, when you smell the patches out of bag, it smells like a really faint pipe tobacco or something out of a wood shed. It wasn't bad, so I stuck 'em to me feet overnight. The next morning, I didn't 'spring' out bed and feel like I was 10 years younger or anything so don't think these are miracle patches. I went into the bathroom and peeled them off my feet. At this point, they smelled like 'wet' wood shed. A little stronger but not bad. Let me tell you how black they were. My husband's were even blacker. And there was this sticky molasses-colored residue on my feet. I took a shower, washed my feet with soap and water, and by the time I got out, my feet felt so much cleaner than ever before. I was shocked. It's like overnight those patches deep cleaned my pores. If you've ever had a foot bath in peppermint, it's like that. My feet smelled good, no wood smell or anything. My husband reported a slight tingling in his calf muscles. I guess they improve circulation. A couple of things to remember when trying new products is keeping an opened mind, but not too open, and follow the instructions carefully. I also had a headache one night and tried a patch on the back of my neck (tension headache). I'm sorry to report that did not work as claimed. I still had a headache in the morning and used my Head-On to get rid of it instead. I do like the patches and recommend them for anyone seeking better circulation and really clean feeling feet.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Experience Has Been Stellar, January 23, 2008

I've been using footpads for over 4 years now, and I must say that the BodyRelief brand has become a fixture in my bedside table drawer. Most often, I use them for easing the kinks I get in my neck and back from sleeping on a less-than-perfect bed. I apply them directly to the spot where I'm feeling the pain for that, and the pads gradually ease out the toxins that build up around the kink (they don't "fill up" quite as much on those spots), taking the pain away as they work. My wife uses them for that, too, and loves the results, and we are both very skeptical of any new-age-sounding remedies.

We've lately found them extremely useful for detoxifying the body when we start feeling a cold coming on, too. It definitely seems to either shorten the length of a cold (or whatever) or 'nip it in the bud' before it has a chance to get hold of you. We even brought them with us on a recent ski trip (putting them on our feet overnight after skiing all day), and found that we didn't experience nearly as much soreness in our legs on the mornings after pounding the slopes all day.

I noticed one of the other reviews complained about experiencing an odor after using footpads. I have noticed, from time to time, a faint smell of vinegar emanating from the pads after a night of use, and I think that one of the main ingredients in the pads is a type of tree bark used to make vinegar. That said, I've never noticed the scent stays on my skin after taking a shower or rinsing, though she did say that she was unusually sensitive to smells. I've observed that the pads seem to get blacker and wetter the more toxins are in your body, so she must've been an extreme case.

In all, after trying a lot of different brands of these, my wife and I are thoroughly convinced that they work, and that this particular brand seems to be consistently the best.

5.0 out of 5 stars Body Relief Detox Pads for muscle soreness and backache, January 27, 2008

By

This review is from: BodyRelief Foot Pads Package of 10 Patches (Health and Beauty)

As a certified personal trainer and Pilates instructor, I see a lot of individuals with bad backs, in addition to the usual aches and pains. And of course, our strength and flexibility building sessions can generate new muscle soreness two or three times a week. I often recommend Body Relief detox pads to my clients ease their discomfort as they get in shape. I've been using them for years myself, and it's interesting to observe skeptics turn into true believers after just a couple uses.

I took note of one person who complained about the odor of the pads when she removed them. Believe me: what comes out of your body is what goes into your body. If you've been eating garlic, even if I don't smell it on your breath, I know from your sweat. Body toxins can have powerful odors, and my experience as a trainer suggests that if the smell was that objectionable, it was proof that she needed to use the Body Relief detox pads more often, not less.
