Ancient Discovery, Modern Clinical Results In Biblical times, stories abounded of a mysterious oil used by ancient healers. It was said to be a precious and wonderfully soothing elixir. Traditionally, this miraculous oil was made by leaving an essential oil in an open vat for 20 years, allowing the sun’s rays to infuse the oil with oxygen. Today, modern science has rediscovered the power of super-oxygenated oil, and the oxygenation process has been shortened to just 3 days. Athletes in Europe have been using this oil for years, but it took leading pain expert Dr. Joseph Pergolizzi to bring it home to the US and create the formula for OxyRub Pain Relief Cream. Now, this exact formula has been clinically shown to provide nearly double the relief of a leading menthol-based pain cream—quickly, and without any medicinal odor. You, too, can enjoy the soothing powers of this ancient secret when you use OxyRub Pain Relief Cream to relieve joint and muscle pain. Human Clinical Trial Confirms Powerful Relief OxyRub Pain Relief Cream was recently tested in a randomized, double-blind clinical trial (the "gold standard" of medical research). Half of the participants received OxyRub, and the other half received a leading, best-selling brand of menthol pain cream. The trial took place over 8 days, partly because researchers wanted to see if the initial pain relief might wear off with extended use. But it didn’t! With OxyRub, pain relief actually increased with each additional day of use. And after 8 days, participants using OxyRub felt nearly twice the pain relief of those using the popular menthol cream. Your OxyRub Questions Answered How is OxyRub better than the other over-the-counter menthol creams? OxyRub is a unique blend of pain-relieving menthol and rich, oxygenated essential oil, which Dr. Pergolizzi believes is the “secret ingredient” to the formula and its efficacy. And the science backs it up—OxyRub has been clinically studied and found to provide nearly twice the pain relief of the leading menthol-based pain cream. What is the clinical evidence behind this product? OxyRub (with 1.25% menthol) was compared to a leading pain cream (also with 1.25% menthol) in a clinical study. This was a double-blind, randomized, controlled head-to-head study of two topically applied analgesics for treatment of acute musculoskeletal pain in 75 normal healthy adults. By day 8 of treatment, the OxyRub group reported a 59.5% decrease in pain while the other group reported a 32.3% decrease (compared to before using their creams). This was almost double the pain relief with the OxyRub group. The study also showed that pain started to decrease 30 minutes after application of OxyRub. Who is Dr. Pergolizzi?
