FAQ’s

"My Antiflam has gone runny"
This can be due to warmer temperatures and does not change effectiveness.

"There are small reddish bubbles appearing on the inside of the tube"
Small amounts of St John’s Wort, a reddish oil, may separate if the product gets warm. This does not change effectiveness, it occurs because there are no artificial emulsifiers added.

"The pump mechanism isn’t working"
There is no ‘stalk’ on the pump mechanism, it works by vacuum (you’ll see the bung move up from the base indicating how much antiflam you have left). Lotion must be in contact with the base of the pump – most often failure to dispense lotion is caused by an air bubble. Place cap on, tip upside down and tap tube till bubble disappears. Pump several times in inverted position till lotion is flowing again.

What our clients say...

I’m a 49 year old bucket list Coast-to Coaster who just achieved a 2 year goal/project to complete the classic 2 day multisport race across the South Island from Kumara Beach north of Hokitika to Sumner beach in Christchurch. I used Josephine’s rub (Peppermint Blend anti-inflammatory) before and after training throughout my training to help recovery. The iconic race includes a 33 km run over the southern alps to end the first day and I used Josephine’s rub especially on my knees, before and after the leg to help ensure I could get out onto the course the next day for another 152 km. On a race like the coast-to-coast it’s critical to be prepared by training well and having the right gear I’d include Josephine’s rub in my list of compulsory gear not on the race but every time I trained which was all part of the journey to achieve my goal.

Over the last 5 (?) years I have relied on my peppermint cream to soothe away sore muscles. At times I’ve been given or purchased other creams but none have been as effective and/or long lasting as the peppermint cream I’ve purchased from Josephine. Easy to apply, not greasy and effective longer this cream is the best.

I have used Josephine Anderson's Peppermint Cream for over 5 years now and have found it to be fantastic for sore muscles and any aches and pains. Recently my partner had a sporting injury from cricket and it proved to be more effective than Tiger Balm or Voltarin Gel. I love that it is a natural product with no chemicals, in our household it is our go to product before anything else!

Thought you'd be interested to know that your antiflam worked a treat - sniffed it with eyes closed for a while, and it really cleared my sinuses and opened up my lungs.

MD, May 2014

I have had Arthritis in my right hand for some time and could not even shake hands with anyone or close my fist but since using the Antiflam cream movement in my hand is now restored. I have also used it on my knee with a dry joint with wonderful result and no longer use my walking stick and can get in and out of my car with ease.

The spikey massage ball has been working really well and I love your cream!!

Bryony 7 July 2015 (professional Violinist)

I used the antiflam over the weekend for my half marathon and had great results. I managed to get a PB in the most atrocious conditions I have ever had to run in. Naturally I am very positive now about using it in a more frequent manner as you've suggested. I have a heat pack I use regularly. Used the cream the night before and immediately afterwards – it helped with cramp avoidance and recovery.
