Here is a pic of my Phiten necklace and my experience. I've worn the necklace for over 2 weeks. Some minor relief in the areas where I had my lower back surgery. I've had two lower back surgeries due to discs pinching the nerves. I've also had some students that have played football and complains about pinching nerves in the neck and claims the necklace relieves the nerve pinching pain. My badminton game is usually a pretty intense and fast paced, Kwun and DinkAlot will know. The last few days, I haven't notice the pain in the surgery areas. Maybe it is working..... So, I would support the product that it does relieve minor pains for patients of post back or spinal surgery or have nerve related pain. However, I don't feel the product will relieve the muscle pain after an intense workout. For example, my legs will still cramp and be sore the next day after 6 hours of $$$$ betting games. Results will vary for everyone depending on the severarity of the nerve pain. Hope this helps for those of you who are going to buy it and try it...
I noticed in the packaging that Phiten is made in the Philippines but nobody seems to know where is it being sold here in the Philippines.
It was an old car accident injury. yes, compressed disc, pinching L3/4/5 nerves. The doctor just trimmed the disc to relieve the pinched nerve. The first doctor only did L3/L4, she didn't feel the L4/L5 was pinched. She was wrong, 2 months later, L4/L5 pinched the nerve and back on the operating table I went. Since then, I've been very good. Lower back is still a bit sensitive to cold weather.
Hey, we will see . Wheel chair may not be necessary in the future if medical technology advances further. I bumped into this elderly gentleman last year at the GGBC Open. He had hip replacement surgery. He no longer can play badminton .
The rubber necklace and rubber bracelets are made in Philippines. Others are made in Japan. For those who have intense pain or ache can use their Tapes, Creams and Gels. Which will further decreases the pain. The necklace and bracelets alone can't Cure all pains and aches.
hi ants..since u have a lot of the phiten products..what do u recommend the best for badminton for a normal person to use (not talking bout aches or reducing injuries)..and you were saying limited edition..what is it all about..is there any different compare to the normal phiten..thanks..take care
Limited edition stuffs still provides the same effect. But they are like "special editions" stuffs More expensive then the normal items.. Try to use the X30 necklace. That is good enough. I uses Phiten Warm Up gel before games and Cool down Gel before games. Some people who have cramps during games, when applied E-Water on the area where they have cramps, the cramps will go away and you will feel much much better. I've witness many cases as well.
Ants, Would you know if these products are available in the Philippines, and where? Thanks in advance!
thanks ants for the info..will try to get it in japan nxt week when i m there..saw the phiten racing limited edition numbered 10,000pcs in the world in their website..worn by F1 driver like David Coultard, Takuma Sato n World No.1 Badminton Men Double players Cai Yun also..hope to get hold of it when i m there..quite like the Racing Series..Titanium Bracelet n the normal racing series rubber bracelet..
Can we see a picture of it? does it actually have the number on the necklace or do you just get a paper certificate showing Limited #1?
