Science and Quality

A High-Quality Source for Pain Relief

Instaflex Pain Relief Cream harnesses the soothing power of menthol (a proven OTC pain reliever) in combination with a ”hyper-oxygenated oil" for fast-acting, long-lasting pain relief. This exclusive formula provides joints and muscles with relief from aches and strains and even the pain of arthritis.

In a double-blind, randomized, controlled head-to-head study, Instaflex Pain Relief Cream was tested against a comparable, menthol-only pain cream. By the end of the week-long treatment, acute pain in Instaflex users had decreased by nearly double that of those using the menthol-only cream. In addition, subjects using Instaflex showed a significantly greater improvement in mobility compared to those using the menthol-only cream.1 

Essential oils and ancient practices:

How oil, oxygen and sunshine soothe skin

In the 1950s and '60s, Professor Pierre Baranger—a member of the Pasteur Institute's scientific team—traveled throughout India studying the healing powers of oils. These oils were known throughout the East for their exceptional restorative virtues.

Upon further study into the healing qualities of oils, Baranger became perplexed as to why modern doctors in the mainland cities weren't using the oils. Local healers informed him that it was because modern doctors didn't know the secret to properly preparing the oils. To truly harness its natural powers, the oil first had to be exposed to sun and open air for 20 years. Using all he had learned from the medicine men of India, Baranger was able to pioneer a process that replicates 20 years of oxygenation in just three days. This allowed him to introduce these powerful soothing oils to the West.

Dr. Pergolizzi was first introduced to the benefits of oxygenated oil while traveling through Germany. This inspired Dr. Pergolizzi to learn more about oxygenated oil, the history of its use, and how he could best incorporate it into his own pain-relief treatments.

Dr. Pergolizzi's Instaflex Pain Relief Cream utilizes the features of oil unlocking a world of potential for both soothing and moisturizing skin.
