Extra Strength Hua Tuo Medicated Patch 5 Patches Per Box (3 Boxes)

They work wonderful....

Great relief

We call these “the stinky patches,” but they really work well. My husband was skeptical, but now he uses them too for the occasional shoulder or lower back pain. These are the same patches my sister received from her chiropractor. They are smelly, but I don’t mind that because they really work. I’ve purchased them at least three times and will again.

The patches work! My mother in law gave me some Chinese patches when I had an injury at work and said they will help. I was skeptical about it, but my back and my neck really hurt, and i would try anything. I put them on for 1 hour and decided to take it of because it was irritating my skin. Imagine my surprise when i discovered that my pain was gone! I used the patches on several occasions with similar results, every time being stunned about how quickly and how well they worked! When i wanted to purchase more, my mil told me that she got them from China during her trip. I decided to search online to see if I can find something similar. Well, recently my husband started having severe neck pain, which lead to tension headache.( never happened before). He had headache every day for a week around Thanksgiving. I ordered Hua Tuo brand hoping it would help. That was the closest thing i could find to what my mother in law gave me. My husband used several of the patches , and within 24 his neck pain was completely gone, and he doesn't have anymore headaches either. He still has some leftover neck tension but the pain is completely gone. I am so glad! Word of advice: don't keep the patch on longer than 2 hours at the time, especially if you have sensitive skin. Use the patch 1-2 hours, discard, and use another one after several hours if still needed.

These patches seem to work well for muscle pain or soreness. My only complaint is that any and all hair will be removed wherever you place the patch. I guess that could be a feature, instead of a flaw, depending on how you look at it. They don't seem to have the "oomph" that some other herbal patches have when you put them on at first. But, my shoulder and back knots seem to just melt away after a few hours of wearing a patch. The fabric on the patch is very thin, so I usually just peel back a corner of the backing, and place a corner of a patch against my skin before removing the backing, entirely. I had a couple of times when I completely removed the backing before trying to place on my skin, and the patch just folded in on itself. The scent is a bit different than I'm used to, as well. It reminds me of curry, a little, and makes me a bit hungry. All in all, a good herbal patch, and one that I would recommend. -1 star for the waxing salon level of hair removal

I've been using Hua Tuo medicated patches for years and they are potent but they work for my lower back pain. I recommend.

My acupuncturist uses these on me after treatment, never had a problem. So I ordered the same kind of Amazon for myself, I used once and I have developed a horrible rash. This photo is three days after my 12 hour treatment. Any advice?

Definitely a must. I have pain in every joint on the right side of my body. and have been using these for years. I discovered them at my acupuncturist office and now have a subscription for them. They a just like a bandaid. The adhesive is extremely strong compared to other brands. I cut them in half for my wrist and foot and they don’t move or peel until they are removed.
