This Sombra pain relief cream feels amazing. Instant cooling on the skin with a slight warmth to it. Similar to icy hot but without the heat. It meets really good too. I first used this at physical therapy and immediately bought it before I left the office. I've purchased 2 since then. It obviously doesn't take the pain away, but it helps lessen the pain

Cannot live with out Sombra. Instantly relaxes shoulders or helps pain. Use it nightly even if not pain for the soothing smell. When I’m sick I run on my neck glands. This also helps soothe cramps from women’s monthly friend. Plus, I always travel with this too. I recommend this to all of my friends and family. My acupuncturist got me started on this and I’ll never go back.

It does have a warming sensation and gives temporary pain relief. It is non-greasy and absorbes quickly. It's not too much of a strong smell for me; I like the smell. But my cat was put off by the scent and I can see where it might be a strong smell for people who are sensitive to scents or not used to this type of scent. It reminds me of Icy Hot. If the 2 oz jar was a couple dollars cheaper, I would say it's worth the price.

Relief!!! I have devoted some time into pain relief creams and there are two OTC creams that stand out. This is one of them. What you want to be aware of is that Sombra relies on capsaicin, an ingredient derived from hot peppers. The basic premise is that the largest pain receptor on the body is the skin and, since the body cannot perceive pain in more than one area at a time, this cream activates all the pain receptors across the area it is spread upon until the original area cannot be felt. This does not mean that one is writhing in pain, upon using this cream as the most you'll feel is an intense warmth. Where this stands above BenGay, Icy Hot, Mineral Ice, and others is its effectiveness. Shaq can do all the Icy Hot commercials he wants and I hope they pay him well cause no more than a nickel sized amount of Sombra last hours longer than a quarter sized amount of Icy Hot. Sombra is also not water based and by the time you have noticed that it is no longer active, your original pain will have dulled to the point of being unnoticeable. As an example, a friend of my mother has been hard done by with cancer treatments and a bad car crash that left her back feeling terrible, most of the time. I sent her some of this product with the instructions that she's only to rub it across her shoulder blades and not directly where it hurts. She still calls, more than a month later, to thank me. Personally, I have had bad leg/knee pain setting in and I have rubbed this across my forearm and stopped feeling the pain in my leg; that's how effective this is. Now that you know the good, you should be aware of some things about this cream. As with any decent tool, this has a double edge. First, you should never attempt to rely, long term, on this product. Sore muscles or a diagnosed medical condition is one thing but if you have prolonged pain, then it may be a good idea to get yourself looked at, medically, instead of continuously applying this cream. Second, if you overuse this product, your body will start to adapt to it and it will stop being as effective. The other thing to be aware of deals with the strength of this cream. The odor of this cream is strong enough to warrant only being used at home or in environments where it is not an issue. Also, it is simply not a good idea to apply this cream to the top of the shoulders or the neck as the fumes will irritate the tear ducts to the point where your eyes will turn bloodshot, while you cry yourself into dehydration. This leads me to the other, more serious, result of losing this cream: BEWARE and woe to you should you forget to wash your hands after using this cream. Accidentally touching your eye or scratching/picking your nose is bad enough but, if you use a restroom while residue of this cream is on your hands, you will learn a lesson that you could go your entire life without and not lament missing the experience. I'll sum it up with this: This has the power to get you past the pain OR provide a level of pain you'll never forget. The scales are yours; weigh it.

I really like SOMBRA. My chiropractor turned me on to this product and it does help with muscle soreness.

I have been diagnosed with carpel tunnel, surgery did not stop the pain or the tingling. Sombra is my go to when my hands flare. I take a dab and rub it on and at first I think it is not working 😔 but then after it dries and a few minutes have passed I realize it IS working! It calms down the pain and on me it reduces the swelling. It Reminds me of my grandma smelling of absorbing Junior as a kid, but not exactly, it does have a strong smell and it does feel warm when you put it on. It last for a while because I forget about it until it stops working a long while later. I have put it on my knees and my wrist when I overdid and it helped greatly. It does not leave a greasy feeling, it is a cream but absorbs like a gel because you rub it inand there is no residue. I purchased the smaller size because I didn't want to spend over $10 on something that doesn't work, it works and a little goes a long way, next time I am ordering what ever size cost less per ounce.
