How long before pain relief starts? Both versions of the
LaKOTA
Topical Pain Relievers work in minutes. Some receive 100% pain relief
in as little as 5 minutes, for others though, maximum pain relief may
occur more gradually over a period of 3 to 4 days. Severity of your
pain and the interaction of your own biological makeup with the active
ingredients will determine how quickly and effectively
LaKOTA works
for you. These topical pain relievers primarily work by decreasing
“Substance P“, a neurotransmitter that sends pain signals from the
site of pain to the brain. Applying
LaKOTA to the area of pain
decreases or eliminates Substance P from the nerve endings in the area
of application. By reducing the amount of Substance P at the site of
pain it reduces or eliminates the pain sensation that gets sent to the
brain. Please do not compare the
LaKOTA topicals to any other topical
pain relievers that you’ve ever tried as there is simply no
comparison!
How long does pain relief last? Most users of the
LaKOTA
Topical Pain Reliever should receive 12 to 24 hours of pain relief
with a single application. However, during the initial stages of use,
pain relief will probably last from 3-5 hours, gradually increasing
with each application. The
LaKOTA Sports Topical does not last as
long, about 2-5 hours, but it too can build up at the site of
application and eventually provide longer lasting relief. Experiment
and find out which product is best for you.
How often should
LaKOTA be applied? During the first seven days
the
LaKOTA Topical Pain Reliever should be applied 3-4 times daily.
After which time it should only be necessary to apply once or twice
daily. As for the
LaKOTA Sports Topical Pain Reliever apply prior to
exercise or exertion as needed.
How much should be applied? Start with a small amount. Apply
just enough to cover the affected area and gently rub in until fully
absorbed.
Are there any areas that
LaKOTA should not be applied? Yes. The
LaKOTA Topical Pain Relievers should not be applied to broken or
irritated skin, such as cuts and sores. Care should also be taken to
avoid getting in eyes or other sensitive areas of the body. If LaKOTA
gets in eyes, flush thoroughly with water.
Are there any side effects associated with the
LaKOTA Topical Pain
Relievers? There are no known harmful side effects with the
LaKOTA
Topical Pain Relievers. Some people may feel a heating sensation
during the first few applications. Some people like this heat and some
don’t. Some feel nothing whatsoever, the pain just goes away. For
those who don’t like the heat then the Sports formula is the one for
you. The heating sensation that many feel with the stronger formula,
the
LaKOTA
Topical Pain Reliever, should gradually diminish with each
subsequent application to where it is non-existent; usually a few days
of continuous use. Warm water or excessive sweating may cause the
LaKOTA Topical Pain Reliever to feel hot. Again, this sensation should
also diminish with each subsequent application.
