Christopher's Original FormulasComplete Tissue & Bone Ointment, Herbal Topical for Muscle & Joint Support, 4 fl oz

Likes: it has helped us with an array of different pains. My husband had a pain in his wrist like the beginning of carpal tunnel. He used it for about two weeks and never experienced the pain again. It really helps with knee pain. You know the kind from walking up and down the stairs.Dislikes: I guess the biggest would be having to keep it in the refrigerator and it is greasy. We have never noticed it staining our clothes. It's green and smells different but not offensive. We will never be without it.

Amazing stuff at an affordable price! I use this on my feet as I have pain in my feet and let me tell you this is a miracle balm/cream! I have already purchased a second jar to have on hand as an extra! Please keep making this affordable and don’t change anything! I thank you for making such a great product!

It works! It definitely helps with bone spurs, it's amazing. A bit greasy but not terrible. I have bought 2 so I have one for travel.

Buying our 2nd tub. I’ve recommended this to countless friends and baseball families that tell me they’re referring others as well.We have used Dr. Christopher’s on fractured elbows and knees. This is my go to for any joint pain. I prefer to start w/ DC before taking any OTC meds. My dad has had two knee and a shoulder replacements. He says it always takes the edge off!The salve has a mild smell. Not repulsive but a mild earthy smell. The ointment doesn’t have a cooling or heating effect. It is meant to stay refrigerated! The texture is solid at first. Almost like honeycomb. Once you scrape it up it will melt on contact with the skin and feels soothing and easy to massage. My only complaint would be that it stays tacky on the skin. If you’re doing yard work or anything around dirt/dust, it’s going to stick. Keep that in mind if you have exposed areas…you may want to keep it covered.I believe this ointment has sped up the healing of many sports related injuries and gives great peace of mind knowing we have it on hand.When I’m with my baseball family and someone is injured the moms always say, “well go home and rub Dr. Christopher’s on it!” 😃

This is a gift to a relative seeing that we have had good success with the ointment helping my knees feel better. My knees are prosthetics. One knee kept locking up on me. I read the reviews of the ointment and purchased some. It helped my knee and since I have been using it on my knee it doesn't lock up anymore. I have recently used it for my carpal tunnel pain. I have had surgery on it 2x and I still have pain. It has helped the pain when nothing else has helped it. I also use it on my knees etc. The jar that I ordered for a gift that arrived yesterday was broken. The company needs to do a much better job of protecting the plastic jar. I am waiting to hear from the company about a new jar.

The first time I got this, my tablet had fallen and landed corner down on my big toe and broke it. I was starting a new job within a week and it would require being on my feet constantly. So, I looked up comfrey ointments and decided on this one. The first few days of work were uncomfortable, but so long as I didn’t flex my foot, the pain was tolerable. Within a week of starting the ointment, I could move any way I needed to without pain. After that, it became my favorite ointment for all bumps, bruises and scratches, muscle and bone pains. It makes everything heal so much faster and cleaner. I still prefer vitamin E for burns, but when I’m out of that, I will apply this.I loaned that first jar to my father-in-law for bone spurs in his heels and he said it brought him relief. I actually never got the jar back because he liked it so much, so I bought another. I ended up giving away more jars over the years and buying myself another every time. I’ve had this fifth one for a couple years now. I did use some on my cousin’s hand and wrist. He has carpal tunnel, I think. He told me weeks later that it was the only thing that ever helped and took all the pain away. Had he said that at the time, I would have left the jar with him and gotten yet another. HahaLast year, my husband hurt himself at work. Painkillers did absolutely nothing for him, but the ointment did. It’s also fantastic on sore muscles, and even on some skin issues. All in all, it’s probably the most effective and useful product I have in my medicine cabinet.

Nice and creamy...easy to apply and was comforting. Depending on what you are using it for, it may or may not work but worth a try. Great for all over body use.

Although it is surprisingly rather a firm product, you should persevere because it is amazing as a help to relieving pain and discomfort to sprains, pulled muscles, etc. I would recommend this great formula to those in that need.
