Indications
Lakota Extra Strength Topical Pain Reliever Soft Touch is a medicine product that is formulated to relieve pain in the skin, joints, and muscles. It contains a potent combination of natural capsaicin oil and menthol, which work together to provide soothing relief from pain and discomfort.
Capsaicin oil produces a warming sensation, which stimulates the pain receptors and causes them to become less sensitive. This helps to reduce the perception of pain and provides temporary relief. However, menthol produces a cooling sensation which can help reduce pain and inflammation in the muscles and joints.
