Hi I've been using this for just over a week, I have applied it to my neck, shoulders, back, knees and fingers, I have suffered with chronic pain and used different pain relief over time to try and be able to complete activities of daily living, but unfortunately the medications that helped the pain made me tired. So for the last week and a half I've been using CannonBalm Ultimate and it has helped surprisingly more than I thought, now it doesn't make me completely pain free but it helps without making me tired or taking away my independence the other medications do. It has a lovely smell unlike other rubs so it'll be interesting to see how it's going after a month but so far I'm happy with my purchase I'm also pleased that there is an option for pensioners so thank you.
