I bought Susie's Salvation pain salve on the recommendation of a friend. I suffer from occasional severe muscle pain in my hip, shoulders and neck - an old car accident injury, too time on the computer and plain old stress can land me in real pain and over the counter pain pills upset my stomach. I tried Susie's pain salve one painful night and....wow! Pain gone in minutes. This is now my go-to pain medication. It works wonders! It lasts and lasts, i can apply it right to the painful area easily, and it even smells great! I have just bought more for my Dad to use- he is diagnosed with Parkinson's and needs pain relief. I just LOVE Susie's Salvation salve - can't recommend it enough!
