In early November, 2008, I was shocked when by chance I looked at my right elbow and saw that it had a swollen lump almost half the size of a tennis ball. I had no recollection of bumping it or otherwise causing damage to it and was really quite surprised because it was painless.   That afternoon I visited my local doctor who explained that it was a bursa and that it could be surgically drained but it would more than likely re-occur.  I asked what other alternatives there were and he replied that possibly a cortisone injection would help which I disregarded because it was mainly to reduce pain.

Like many others who have written to you, I used the internet to obtain as much information as I could regarding my condition and what treatments, if any, were available.   Among many various items of information, I found at your website which absolutely blew my mind and actually found hard to believe despite all the various testimonials which totally supported the product.  I subsequently contacted the suppliers by email to ascertain what the “landed” price would be to New Zealand and decided that it was more or less the same price as a visit to my doctor, SO, decided to “give it a go” and ordered the patches which were coming from Australia.

When the patches had not arrived in 15 days due to local postage problems, my doctor drained the bursa by needle but it re-filled within 3/4 days as he predicted.   Shortly afterwards, the patches arrived and were immediately used with my scepticism.  The morning after my 1st patch I could not believe my eyes as it was full and covered with similar coloured fluid as the doctor had removed by needle and the same thing happened on each of the next 3 days to the point that the bursa reduced to almost normal.  I have not had to use another patch since then and my elbow is back to normal and has not refilled in the past 9 days so I think I can safely presume the problem has been fixed.  I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone with similar problems.

Hi,

I have been using the patches for a bakers cyst caused by torn miniscus. The patch takes care of it but in comes back in about a week. Is it safe to use a patch a week for an indefinite amount of time?

Thank you,

My name is Garry Gracey; I am a former HANDBALL CHAMPION.  

I banged my elbow while playing handball.  It became swollen after a few days and my family doctor recommended not to drain the bursa on the elbow but to have it take its natural healing course. “Being impatient” I googled and found OSMO Patches.  They were AMAZING in such that after 5 applications of OSMO Patch the swelling on my elbow disappeared.  

For a visual of the before and after, attached are the pictures. 

Thank you very much,

Hi

My 81 year old mother has been suffering from hip bursitis for several years. She got some relief from regular corticosteroid injections. However, the last time she had this treatment, the injection was not carried out properly and she was in agony for several days. Consequently, she has been frightened to receive this treatment again, and the pain from the bursitis was getting progressively worse. She had not been sleeping and could not walk far.

I went online to search for an alternative treatment, found OSMO website and thought I'd give it a go. My mum has just completed the first course of 10 patches and she has a completely new lease of life. It really is amazing how quickly this treatment has had an effect. She has been sleeping much better and walked further at the weekend than she has for many months. I have ordered a further 20 patches.

Many thanks.

Hi,

My name is Arthur XXX, a GP in XXXXX.  My wife has trochanteric bursitis that for over a year has resisted treatments such as NSAID’s, intra bursa steroid injections, etcetera.  A couple of months ago, we decided to give your patches a go, and, in short, the response was fantastic.  I was so impressed by the relief she experienced, that I’ve subsequently recommended them to a few of my patients with bursitis.  So far, their reports are equally impressive.

Thanks,
