Summary: Good value, easy to use, portable & they work!
Comment: When I first bought these, I was disappointed in their size--so tiny compared to other pain-relieving patches I'd been buying for my chronic neck/shoulder muscle spasms.
HOWEVER, I'm pretty sure that for the money, you get tons more actual product--although these patches are quite a bit smaller--only 2.56 X 1.64 inches each, there are way more in a package. So, it's a great value.
Another thing I really like is that unlike large patches, these are pretty easy to apply by yourself without having them get all wadded up/wrinkled or in the wrong spot.
And, you can always slap on more than one to cover however much space you need to cover! (I have three on my neck/shoulders now). They adhere quite strongly, and are like any adhesive applied to the skin--it can smart a bit when you take it off!
The active ingredients in these patches are camphor, menthol and methyl salicylate. If you are allergic to any of these ingredients, or aspirin (salicylate is very similar to aspirin and can cause the same reaction), skip these and try something else--maybe the capsicum products? I have some skin allergies, but am not bothered by these.
One benefit of using patches rather than pain-relieving creams or ointments is that you do not get yucky-smelling product on your hands.
Another is that you can wear these when you have to be around other people and you don't smell like you are slathered in ointments.
Plus, they are quite portable. I have one of the smaller packages in my purse for on-the-go pains. There are six small packages inside the box, each containing 20 patches, so you get 120 of these little patches in the box. Even if you use multiples at a time, they will last quite awhile.
I use these mostly for my neck/shoulder pains, but they also work when I overdo the exercise (or it rains) and my old knee injury acts up. I believe they'd work for almost any spasm, pulled muscle, stiffness or joint problems--anywhere you have pain, but the skin is not broken.
Highly recommended.

Summary: Salonpas works better than Rx drugs for chonic pain
Comment: It's like Ben-gay on a patch.
I've suffered from chronic severe pain for more than 3 years. My doctors call it idiopathic diabetic neuropathy.
Salonpas works better than Lidoderm(tm) patches and costs a fraction of what Lidoderm does.
The ingredients are GRAS (generally recognized as safe), and aren't nearly as messy as similar OTC treatments like Ben-gay.

Summary: love love love
Comment: I cannot sing enough praise for Salon Pas..
I will not take any other pain relievers anymore but I do stuff that
regularly causes me pain so I am only too happy to plaster myself all
over with Salon Pas at night and wake up feeling fine.. and for next to no $$.... honestly. don't know where I'd be w/o them..

Summary: A Lifesaver For Me!
Comment: I suffer from terrible pain in my neck, shoulders and back. I had a failed back surgery, and have tried everything, including having my nerves burned! SalonPas are one of the best products I have used, and I've been going through this for a good ten years. They're inexpensive, which may turn some people away, but take it from someone who suffers greatly... these work better than many of the higher priced patches.

I cannot find them anymore in the stores so I looked on line, We love them!,,They are great, my whole family uses them. We wont use anything else!..Thank you for such a great product!,,,,Sharon S.
