I had been taking Flex Essentials for over a year with great success. I haven't had the knee pain when training for mountain climbing and half marathons. I ran out about 3-4 weeks ago. I didn't think I would really notice a difference in my knees. I am training to climb Mt Rainier so I am doing lots of hillwork, carrying heavy loads, running and cycling. My knees have started to bother me again. I have submitted a new order for Flex Essentials and my knees eagerly await its arrival. Thanks for such a great product!

I just wanted to let you know just how much I am in love with Total Sleep and Flex Essentials. I love to walk, but my left hip, right knee and right ankle always had so much pain that I was limping after 1 mile. I have now been using Flex Essentials for 8 days, this last Saturday I did a 3 mile fund raiser walk for the American Heart Association and I had absolutely no pain. The quality of sleep that I have been getting is immeasurable and I wake refreshed and full of energy. Can't tell you how glad I am I've found these products and I am now a faithful client that will also be referring all of my friends to these great products.

I have severe DJD and arthritis. Flex Essentials has helped me improve my flexibility and has helped relieve soreness and stiffness. Basically, I can move better. I am not pain free, but I have stopped taking prescribed NSAIDS.

After damaging my knee AGAIN from a jump off of a high step carrying a load, I thought this was finally the time to get that surgery. I could not even pull on my socks or operate the gas pedal. After only four weeks of Flex Essentials use my knee has improved so far from about 10% use to 90% and continues to improve.
I am back walking four miles each morning and I have lost essentially all of the back and shoulder pains I have developed over the last 20-30 years of construction work. I can finally sleep without pain and getting out of bed hasn't been this easy in decades. This is a Godsend!

As a medical doctor I've had many pain relief products brought to my attention for review or trial. I was skeptical of Flex Essentials claims when a friend brought me the product to review. My friend had some knee pain for which he used the product and found sufficient relief to run a marathon. After speaking with Matt Titlow about the scientific research behind the product I decided to give it a try for some chronic left lower back pain I've had for about one year. I went on a ski trip to Colorado last month and didn't have a chance to start Flex Essentials ahead of time. The first day on the mountain, my back pain kept me from totally skiing all out to full capacity especially on the bumps and in the trees. I started Flex Essentials that first morning and took it twice per day for the first three days as recommended. By the third day I was amazed to find that my back pain was radically decreased and didn't interfere with my skiing.
My back just felt a bit sore, like I'd had a good workout. The pain continued to improve over the week. I was able to ski with abandon, without even thinking about back pain. When I got home, still feeling a bit skeptical about the product. I went off it for two weeks and my pain returned as before, noticeable in every aspect of my life. I restarted the Flex Essentials and have again seen the pain intensity lessen to almost nothing. So I am a believer now and will continue to use this product for as long as necessary.

I wanted to give you the "skinny" on Flex Essentials: My husband spent last weekend carrying heavy furniture up two flights of stairs and then played golf to reward himself. His shoulder was killing him at the beginning of his round of golf, and to add insult to injury, his knees were also killing him by then end! On Sunday, he drove hundreds of miles to Phoenix and had a long sit-down meeting when he arrived. Needless to say, he was in pain. He took two packets of Flex Essentials AND, within 30-40 minutes, he noticed his shoulder had stopped hurting. By the next morning his knees were back to normal - no pain. He loves it!

I discovered FlexEssentials when scanning the internet for something (anything) that might help my arthritis and joint stiffness (I am 70) and decided to try FlexEssentials - it has made a world of difference in my mobility and decrease in pain from the arthritis. My husband was skeptical at first then I convinced him to try it and now he is a regular customer too. It works!

As a News Reporter I'm quite careful with any endorsements. If proven wrong it can come back and totally destroy any creditability. It is a must that I try anything I endorse. For the past 30 days I've been trying FlexEssentials. For many years I've suffered with arthritis in my hands and fingers. I also began to feel stress in my wrist due to computer activity. I detest drugs of any kind and I'll wait to the very last minute to take anything. Over the years I've learned to live with or manage the pain. Through a friend I tried FlexEssentials, I am a skeptic and I was looking for anything to discredit this product (I've done numerous investigative reports). Test one was how does it taste? The taste was great and if it taste good that means I'll take it faithfully. After two weeks I felt nothing!!!
And I was ready to dismiss the claim when I realized "I felt nothing" no pain no discomfort nothing!!! I even had a dislocated index finger that was a constant problem, suddenly pain free. Now I mentioned earlier that I am a skeptic, so I felt that maybe this is in my head. Perhaps I wanted it to work so badly that I convinced myself that it was working. That theory was quickly dismissed when in Arizona covering the LA Dodgers Training Camp the pain came back. I went three days without using FlexEssentials.
So I didn't realize how well it worked until I didn't have it. I am on record saying this is a good product that works. At 60 I need all the help I can get, thanks for the introduction Matt!!! I'd love to write more however, I'm off to play racquetball for the first time in 10 years!!!!

I recently made a skiing trip to Sugar Bowl. When I arrived I was super sore from riding in the car and tired from waking up early to get there. I'm not sure when it kicked in, but all I know is that after I had some Flex Essentials and I was ready to tear up the mountain. My body felt rejuvenated like I had slept perfectly in a comfortable bed with my aches all gone.
It seemed like the flexibility of my body increased the more I rode. FlexEssentials helped me conquer the discomfort. Thanks!

"My body has been more mobile, agile and pain free."
"I have had two packets everyday from April 26, day of the HIGH FIVES contest, through the morning of May 8th (this past Thursday). I would take one first thing in the morning and one after my afternoon workout or day at work. On Thursday, I went to Seattle for the weekend and decided to not take any packets of FlexEssentials with me for the weekend. I woke up Friday morning a little sore but figured it was from the 14 hour drive from Truckee to Paulsbo, Wa. Then waking up Saturday my feet hurt and were swollen, and I mean hurt like they haven't for the past 2 weeks while on Flexessentials. Sunday morning my feet once again hurt and continued to hurt and swell up throughout the day and on the plane ride home.
Upon arriving back home I took a packet of FlexEssentials and went to bed, I woke up this morning took another packet and throughout the day my body has been more mobile, agile, and pain free plus I did an intense 1 1/2 hour workout this afternoon. I am a true believer of this product, I want to help in any way possible to spread the word to people about FlexEssentials."

"What's in this stuff??? Is it legal and if so where do we buy stock???!!!!"
"I must tell you I can't remember when I have been in such a low level of pain... and it's been overcast/raining here for three days and usually those are my worst days. I just went on the website and ordered replacement of the samples you sent me (the FlexEssentials). Thank you so much for your participation in this product, I can only imagine how many people you will help. I'll keep you updated on my hopefully continued relief!"

"Upon using the FlexEssentials, the ankle swelling and pain decreased quickly and dramatically and I was able to get busy with a quick rehab."
"As for the FlexEssentials, I used it religiously and think it was very helpful for this hard-to-explain-by-email situation. Due to a skin graft on the bottom of my foot, my previously injured ankle (bicycle/truck accident) became painfully swollen and inflexible as a result of the temporary inactivity. I was also forced to walk gingerly on the side of my foot which caused more problems. Upon using the FlexEssentials, the ankle swelling and pain decreased quickly and dramatically and I was able to get busy with a quick rehab. I'm convinced the healing process was greatly enhanced by your product. I've been dealing with ankle issues this past year and I was very surprised how quickly it improved. I would definitely use this product again for ankle & knee issues which are, unfortunately, here to stay."

I wanted to tell everyone that I'm very excited and I feel a dramatic difference in the discomfort level and flexibility of my body!
It was first apparent last night and has continued today! I had an accident 4 months ago (actually a car accident followed by a fall down some stairs). My back has been really locked up since then (with my condition it takes forever to heal). I've been going to a chiropractor/acupuncturist and he's had great difficulty getting me loosened up enough to adjust my back as the muscles in my back are really locked down. After taking FlexEssentials, I have more freedom of movement and less discomfort than I've had in months!
