I use this mixed with the Hemp oil on my husbands feet at night. He is going through some medical treatments and it helps him sleep.

Hello, Mama! I've never tried this. The bottle isn't really that large. The best thing ever for back pain is OHC Chinese Massage Oil. If you use it after a hard work out - like pulling weeds or heavy lifting - you won't have pain the next day. http://www.amazon.com/Ohc-Chinese-Massage-Oil/dp/B00CWHTGHC/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie;=UTF8&qid;=1371158637&sr;=1-1-catcorr&keywords;=ohc+chinese+massage+oil

I know it's recommended not to put oil on straight. Always dilute with a carrier oil, so it doesn't burn you. Just a good olive oils works well. My daughter in law takes copaiba and peppermint in capsule form for pain. She has had 3 neck surgeries and spine is not in good shape. She buys empty capsules and puts her oils in them and takes them by mouth.

I just use a cotton ball to apply directly to painful areas, or get a helper to apply to back trigger spots. I also apply a little to my wrists & palms & rub hands together, cup hands over my nose & mouth & inhale deeply--it helps to ease tension & pain, for me. I also put a drop in my tea.

There are a few ways to apply the Frankincense oil. I apply it directly on the skin myself. Or you can use a carrier oil like jojoba on the surface & then apply the oil on top of that. A third way is to make up a spray: take a small (1 to 2 ounce) spray bottle, fill with pure water, then add 10 drops of the oil. The choice is up to you, but I have no problems with using the oil directly on the skin -- everyone is different, but I've experienced no burning, redness or irritation when using it straight from the bottle.

I did not get instructions for mine. I did Google how to use it and there are a ton of instructions there. My Dr told me how she wanted me to use if for my leg as well. Sorry I could not help more.

All the information about ingredients is at the back. But I can confirm to you that this product is great, I was in a bad car accident few years ago, and was going to my chiropractic at least twice a year, I have now a wonderful and very professional Doctor, and he is using Biofreeze at his practice every day, and he recommended me to have one at home. My understanding that Biofreeze was even created by one doctor for his grandmother. Any way, I trust my wonderful doctor and got one, and it is great, with cool and heat effect, long lasting. So now I always have at home. I am not working for the person who selling it, just honestly like this product for my back pains, and it is easy for me to recommend it to others. Here is some info from the Biofreeze webpage: "Biofreeze was first introduced in 1991 by a healthcare practitioner that was searching for a way to help his grandmother manage her arthritis pain. Today, Biofreeze products provide relief to countless arthritis sufferers. But the pain reliever's unique, cooling formulation is also comforting to sore muscles and muscle sprains; easing back shoulder and neck pain; reducing painful ankle, knee, hip, and elbow joints and helping to lessen the effects of muscular strain." Main ingredient is Menthol. Active Ingredient: Menthol 3.5% Inactive Ingredients: Camphor (for scent), carbomer, FD&C blue #1, FD&C yellow #5, Glycerine, Herbal Extract (ILEX Paraguariensis), Isopropyl Alcohol, Methylparaben, Propylene Glycol, Silicon Dioxide, Triethanolamine, Water

You rub the lamp portion on your skin directly to the affected area. Great for back aches, tennis elbo, bursitis, etc. 5 to 10 minutes several times a week works for me.

Wrist, behind ears, neck.... If it's topical for pain (like back pain or foot pain) you would apply directly to the area.

Good morning Shaminy. I used the roller on my face and on stretch marks on my arms. I am unsure if it will work on the back or chest as I have not tested those areas. I would lean to say it is ok to try on those areas as it is sensitive enough to use on the face. I hope this helps you out.

I had shoulder surgery so I used it around my shoulder, including two pads on my upper back. Their info sheet includes the back. I think there are issues using it around your spine, especially in the neck area. It is a real "Tens" unit so anywhere they can be used this one should work as well.

I apply my upper back using the Earth Therapeutics applicator from Amazon. It's attached to the end of a stick, and it's not soft like a sponge so it doesn't absorb the solution. I just reach over my head and spray my upper back and spread it around with the applicator. It's easiert to spray your lower back, and you can rub it in with your hands.

Theoretically - yes you could, but unless it's a very small area that's easy to reach, you would need a second person to help you apply it. And the aftercare would be difficult too. I can't think of any issues with skin on your back where a TCA peel would be your best option. Are you addressing skin discoloration, acne, KP? I've read of people using other peels (with help), but never TCA.

You would apply this on your dampened back, massage it in for 2 to 3 minutes and then you would wash it off.

I have never used it for back pain; I put a few drops(2-4) in a foot bath, and soak my feet in warm water, while it vibrates. All the answers I have read sound good to me; In massaging it into your skin, a couple of drops in an oil, I prefer almond oil, myself, but I'm sure any other solution could be good as well. As one has suggested, trial and error is the only way one can tell if it fits one's specific need.

I would personally feel comfortable using it on my upper back and neck area, yes. I'd start on a very gentle setting for the neck muscles, only because they tend to be super tight and tender. There are also helpful pictures and diagrams that come along with it showing sticker placement on different parts of the body. As long as you don't have one of the pads straddling your spine, I'd think you'd be ok. Just go easy at first.

What you can do is try a small spot on your back without diluting it to see the results. If you find that it is harsh to your skin you can dilute it but won't work that well. I'm sure it will be fine since I have the same skin as you.

I have mainly used it to apply moisturizing lotion to the part of my back that I simply cannot reach. I would think that the applicator would work with oil, but use it sparingly. The pad can be cleaned off easily, but if using actual oil, suggest simple dish detergent or maybe even windex would be effective in cleaning the applicators pad.

The instructions are on the box. If unsure, you can always check with your dermatologist

Press the plus sing on the outside of the pad after you apply to pain area. It beeps and starts to pulse. It didn't do anything for my back. Hope it works better for you.
