Traumeel is a natural anti-inflammatory product which is used for the symptomatic relief of soft tissue trauma, sprains, strains and swelling resulting from sporting and other soft tissue injuries. It also provides temporary relief of sore, bruised and aching muscles as well as arthritic pain (it may help reduce the joint inflammation associated with arthritis).
Traumeel helps to slow down an excessive inflammatory response so that only the necessary degree of inflammation exists as a precursor to healing, speeding up the recovery process. It also aids in the regenerative process of the injured tissue. The product’s unique combination of different ingredients of homeopathic, vegetable and mineral origin have been used successfully for many years. It comes in several forms: cream, gel and tablet.
Traumeel is generally well tolerated, with a rare side-effect of mild skin hypersensitivity or allergy. The cream/gel should not be applied to large areas or open wounds. Wrapping the injured area with a bandage after applying traumeel is recommended as this will increase its absorption and therefore its effectiveness.
