Relief Healthcare: Chili Pepper Provides Arthritis Sufferers with an OTC Alternative to Vioxx(TM) and Celebrex(TM)
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(CCNMatthews - Dec. 20, 2004) -
Fiery Chili Pepper Substance "Capsaicin" in Relief Matrix(TM) Relieves Arthritis, Joint and Muscle Pain
Some consider chili peppers too hot to handle, but arthritis sufferers looking for natural alternatives to commonly used arthritis medication can embrace the healing powers of Capsaicin, the hot substance found in chili peppers and clinically proven to be a powerful pain blocker. Temporary relief is now available in Relief Matrix(TM) (www.reliefmatrix.com) products - easy-to-use topical analgesics with Capsaicin as the key ingredient that breaks the pain cycle.
"Arthritis is one of the top three most common chronic diseases in Canada, affecting four million adults. With current concerns related to oral medication such as Vioxx(TM) and Celebrex(TM), arthritis sufferers now have a new, natural and safe alternative in Relief Matrix's line of topical analgesics," says Anne Barrett, founder and CEO of Relief Healthcare Inc. and long-time arthritis sufferer.
Anne Barrett is well aware of the disease symptoms as well as topical and oral medications currently available. "Today's arthritis sufferers want customizable pain relief solutions with minimal side effects that will not hinder their active lifestyles," says Barrett.
Capsaicin is the key ingredient in Relief Matrix, a line of easy-to-use topical analgesics that temporarily help to break the pain cycle. It comes in two strengths - Regular Strength "Cooling", with an initial cooling and then heating sensation relieving minor muscle pain, and Extra Strength "Radiant" with a continuous strong warm sensation for serious arthritis and joint pain.
As pain can hit at any time, a conveniently packaged pain reliever is a must for active people. Both strengths of Relief Matrix come in cream format in a squeezable bottle with an easy to open cap; a light foaming mousse, for easy application; and a box of 24 individually wrapped portable towelettes, perfect for those on the go.
Relief Healthcare Inc. is a Canadian company committed to developing products that provide temporary pain relief through advanced formulations that enable consumer self-healthcare to meet their needs and lifestyles. Relief Matrix was developed in collaboration with a Canadian doctor, pharmacist and chiropractor. Relief Matrix products are available in major retail stores across Canada.
