Does this work for back, leg and foot pain from sore muscles?

Yes it does Nicolette. It actually works very well. I'm a skeptic when it comes to claims that seem to good to be true, but first hand experience with emu oil has made me a believer. It's not a miracle cure all, but for non chronic (acute) pain, it is amazing. I'm never without emu oil now and have given it to family, friends and strangers for everything from cuts to burns to bruises to sore, aching feet, legs, backs, cramps, muscle spasms....whatever the problem may be, it really helps. My 5 year old grand daughter suffered with leg cramps at night. I put some emu oil on her legs and within 5 minutes she was back asleep. Now when she has a cramp, cut or scrape, she say's, "Papa....I need the blue stuff!" I had a bad cut on the top of my foot that would not heal. After two weeks of misery, I put some emu oil on it. After two days, it was as if it was never there. My son hurt his back last week while hanging sheet rock. I offered him some emu oil and he snorted, 'that ain't gonna work for me.' I put some in a small bottle and asked him to humor me and just try it for a day or so. He called back the next day asking where he could get some. Good stuff!.

I havent noticed any solid results for pain, however my grandson burned his hand pretty badly and it healed amazingly fast with the use of the emu oil and no sign of infection.

I take it for my knee problem--that I have since I was 16. Without it, it is painful to exercise or climb steps. I notice no change whatsoever in my back and neck pain, though. I actually had no idea it was indicated for that too...

Yes, it does. My husband always has leg cramps, both calf and thigh, as well as cramps in his feet in the summer. We used quinine until they took it off the market, and he says this works as well as the quinine did. He initially took 2 pills every night for about a month, and now uses them as needed.

I have used it on my foot for nerve pain, and it seemed to help. The pad is rigid and has no strap to keep it in position, so I place it face up on a surface and put my foot on it. Try it on less than full power as it can get hot after about 15 minutes.

I do not know, I used it for muscle sprains in my hand and foot. It did help but it took some time, nothing quick.

Yes, although it isn't ideal. If you put your feet in the middle it squeezes them really hard and hurts, but you can rest them on top of the rollers. You have to work to keep them in place, though. I wouldn't buy it as a foot massager, but it works in a pinch.

This works similar to a foam roller. Over time it will help relieve symptoms of shin splints, achilles tendonitis, ITB issues, etc. I would consider allowing a friend to use the roller stick on you as they will apply a little more pressure than you will, though don't apply pressure right on the shin bone. Use it on muscles only. It will be uncomfortable but is well worth it in the long run.

Hi,We wanted to try it on aches and pains.....my husband hurt his back in Viet Nam, and a lot of times his meds don't help much. This helps a little, but we have to be careful because too much of it burns.

yes, my personal trainer recommended it for my soreness from lifting weights in the gym. it lasts longer than biofreeze or any other over the counter rubs.

Yes, it definitely helps to relieve body aches. Can't beat the price either as same one costs you 3 times as much if you are getting it from the sporting goods store.

I cannot say for sure. It helps me with severe back pain in that I think it relaxes my spasms and stimulates circulation. My personal opinion is that it could provide some relief, mostly temporary, as I assume you have back pain with your sciatica. I don't think its a miracle cure at all, but have found it very comforting when experiencing severe back pain. I do have leg burning, pain and numbness which may or may not be sciatica (different medical opinions) and I do not place the pads directly on my leg but instead on my low back because that seems to be the source. Sorry I'm not more helpful. Also, please note I have subsequently obtained a stronger machine for at home, but this one is so light and small that its great to carry with you places. If you like it you may want to buy an extra set of the pads as they do only work for a certain amount of uses.

To be honest I am not a Doctore to diagnoise anything. This helps speed up muscle recovery and soreness but I am not sure if that helps with chronic pain. Probably depends on what is causing that pain. If you want to order it and try it out then go ahead. If he doesnt like it I can issue a refund.
