I have a skin condition that causes a lot of itching. I use the salve which has stops the itching almost immediately, as well as cooling and soothing the affected area. The same event occurred with my friend. I use the salve consistently and my condition is 100% better. ~ Joan Langham

Ok, once again I am singing your praises. I spilled hot spaghetti sauce down two of my fingers and got a pretty nasty burn. I put the ointment on it immediately and it really took the burn out quickly. I thought you would like to know that Dave has also been using it on a regular basis and even asks for it :) ~ Maryann Snell

Being 65, I have odd aches and pains. I particularly have a bad ankle, knee, and shoulder. I used the lotion bar on all three areas every night for a week. All three areas got better and have remained improved. I still use the lotion bar about 3 nights a week. I'm not sure why it works, but the lotion bar has given me great relief from the aches in those three area. It surely could not hurt to try the bar if you have a painful area joint. ~ Joan Langham
