Does the job. Aches much reduced in first week of useWill definitely buy again

Recommended by a friend eased the pain in my knee from first use.

I happened to overhear a conversation between two strangers where one was complaining about terrible pains in her legs. The other told her that she used green-lipped mussel rub and it made a big difference to the pain.I'd heard of green lip mussel supplements before but never a rub. As soon as I got home I looked it up and found it was quite reasonably priced so I ordered some to be sent direct to my parents, both who are suffering a lot of pain from PMR.My mother called me the same day, and said she had tried it on my Dad and that he had reported that it had made a difference within 10 minutes!I was really pleased if not a little puzzled. When I checked the ingredients this contains glucosamine as well as green lipped mussel. Now it is widely known that glucosamine can actually help with joint pain and it is even recommended by vets for dogs, but I am at a loss to understand how glucosamine applied externally can help?Is may be possible that the action of rubbing the sore area to apply the cream made the difference. ( Never underdressed underestimate the power of touch!) But in any case, it DID work and they want to buy more.It's quite reasonably priced so I think it's worth a try.

Very nice cream to use and with ease so for that alone 5 stars but didnt help at all for pain so 3 stars as bought for pain relief and didnt give any.Maybe if pain less try as good quality cream. But ingredient not useful for needsWont repurchase wish it had worked as consistency goodShame

This is always my go to for minor aches and pains. Rub it on and works like a dream.

Nice smell and consistency. I should use it a bit longer to be able to know if it works on my arthritis, I like the gel, it’s easy to use and gets absorbed quickly.

This cream is used for all members of the family, kids included, in our houshold for joints and muscle pain. Really good product. Though I can't use it too often due to allergy to plant extracts, but when I do use it always helps me with pain to some extent. There is a nice feeling of coolness after application, scent is not overpowering, cream is absorbed easily, doesn't leave any residue or anything. I'd recommend anyone to give it a go.
