I tried this as a last gasp in a long line of products to control knee pain. I’m pleased to say that initial indications are that this works great. However, since it’s not stated in the items description, it should be noted that one of the “tri-flora” items is poison ivy. Yes, that’s correct – poison ivy! Not an issue for me as I have never had any sensitivity to that plant, but for someone who may be hypersensitive, you may want to look elsewhere rather than take the chance. There is a warning on the packaging.

In my search for a topical pain reliever, I’ve found that most of the typical drugstore items either smell, burn, are messy, and just plain don’t work! I happened upon this item in an organic food store, read the package carefully, and gave it a try. True to the insert, noticeable pain relief takes about a week, but it is definitely NOTICEABLE! My arthritic knee, combined with Synvisc injections twice a year, is now functioning – not back to where it was when I was 50, but using Triflora as an adjunct to the injections and a once-a-day anti-inflammatory is a far cry from taking medicine 3-4 times a day and walking with a cane.
Miracle drug? No. It probably will not work for everyone. But in my case, when used in combination with my regular medical care, I’ve managed to avoid knee replacement surgery for easily another year!!!!
It’s worth a try, and I’m glad I gave it a chance.

This gel is amazing. I suffered an injury to my shoulder from lifting weights and this is the only thing that helped with my pain. The doctor told me to use Naproxyn (anti-inflammatory), however that only made me gain weight and gave me constant stomach aches. I wake up stiff in my arm and shoulder every morning and a little bit of this just relieves the stiffness and gives me my mobility back!

I’ve tried many different remedies and gels for arthritis/tendonitis in my elbow and painful foot joints to varying degrees of effectiveness. However, I was lucky to come across Triflora Arthritis gel – it really works wonders! It isn’t sticky and feels neither cold nor hot, but it really relieves the pain. Patience is key. It doesn’t work immediately, but after awhile, you notice that the pain has simply disappeared. Love this stuff!
