Heativate Relief Cream

Heativate is the Relief Cream and was originally developed to provide a longer lasting heat to sore and achy muscles & joints during a workout, game, event, general daily activity or even taking the dogs for a walk.   As a gym junkie, Em had experienced many of the topical heating gels and creams available on the market but was disappointed in their lack of longevity.  Part way through a workout and particularly some of the longer events, the warming effect were no longer perceived, which is when her body needed it the most.  And the thought of not being able to stay active was errrrm... not the preferred option!

Given there was nothing like it on the market, we set out to create a product that could provide this lasting effect with added ingredients for extra bang for your buck, and after much trial and error, Heativate relief cream was perfected.  

It is important to note this distinction compared to other heating products on the market, that this product does not necessarily provide surface heat when first rubbed into the skin (unless rubbed vigorously).  Instead, once you start to move your body around, Heativate relief cream will become activated.

Cleverly chosen ingredients have resulted in a product that is actually activated by your own muscle activity resulting in a long lasting, deeply warming effect well below the surface where it is needed most.

Relief Cream and Why it Works

From a heat perspective, you may notice the warming effect caused from the relief cream during your work out or as you start to work up a sweat, for others it may be more noticeable as you start your cool down and the blood rushes into the areas that you have worked out.  Either way the therapeutic deep warming effect is occurring due to this physical activation, whether you perceive it at the time or not.

It is important to note this distinction compared to other heating products on the market, that this product does not necessarily provide surface heat when first rubbed into the skin (unless rubbed vigorously).  Instead, once you start to move your body around, Heativate relief cream  will become activated.  

On occasion, sometimes warmth is not perceived at all, but the discomfort in the area may still be relieved.  Interesting!  This suggests that Heativate relief cream is working under the surface without necessarily needing the conscious perception of heat to have its effect.  In fact, some of our arthritis suffering patients in our clinic used it without doing physical exercises at all, other than just going about their normal daily activities, and they reported a reduction in pain and improved joint movement without consciously noticing the warming effect.
