Muscle Pain & Spasm Relief For Adults- Raahat

Roll directly onto the painful area — muscle, joint, back, shoulder, knee or neck. Massage in circles until absorbed. For deeper pain, apply and cover with a warm cloth for 10 minutes.

Use 3–4 times a day or whenever pain returns. Raahat is for adults and children aged 12 and above. Do not apply on broken skin, wounds or rashes.

Five ingredients: Wintergreen, Menthol, Ginger, Peppermint, Eucalyptus in a Fractionated Coconut Oil base.

Wintergreen and menthol fight pain directly. Ginger reduces the inflammation causing the pain. Peppermint and eucalyptus improve blood flow and relax muscles. Together they work on pain from three directions — which is why the relief feels more complete than single-ingredient products like Moov or Volini.

Wintergreen — contains methyl salicylate, related to aspirin. Penetrates skin and reduces pain signals at the site. Clinically proven for muscle and joint pain.

Menthol — activates cold receptors instantly, interrupting pain signals within seconds. The fastest-acting ingredient in Raahat.

Ginger — inhibits the same inflammatory enzymes targeted by prescription painkillers, without the side effects. Especially effective for joint stiffness.

Peppermint — relaxes muscle spasms and relieves cramping and tension.

Eucalyptus — reduces inflammation, improves circulation and helps other ingredients absorb better.

No — and this is important.

Diclofenac is the active ingredient in Moov, Volini and Voveran. The US FDA has placed a black box warning — its highest safety alert — on all diclofenac products for three reasons:

Heart: Increases risk of heart attack and stroke within the first few weeks of use. A Lancet study (2013, 280,000 patients) found diclofenac carries cardiovascular risk similar to Vioxx — the painkiller pulled worldwide after causing an estimated 88,000 heart attacks.

Kidney: Reduces blood flow to the kidneys. Regular use can cause kidney damage and worsen existing kidney disease.

Stomach: Causes ulcers and GI bleeding in 1–2% of users within 3–6 months — often without warning.

These risks apply to diclofenac gels too, not just tablets. The gel absorbs into the bloodstream through skin.

Raahat contains none of this.

For everyday pain — muscle soreness, stiff joints, back pain, neck tension — yes.

Wintergreen is a serious clinical-grade analgesic used in sports medicine for over a century. Menthol provides immediate relief that diclofenac gel cannot — diclofenac takes 20–30 minutes to kick in, menthol works in seconds.

Honest caveat: for severe acute pain — bad sprains, post-surgical pain, severe arthritis — prescription-strength diclofenac may provide deeper, longer relief. Raahat is not a replacement for clinical pain management in serious conditions. For everything else, it works — without the heart, kidney and stomach risk.

Yes — Raahat is a specifically safer choice for heart and kidney patients.

Diclofenac is explicitly contraindicated for patients with heart disease, heart failure and kidney impairment. Most patients don't realise that Moov and Volini — available at every chemist without a prescription — contain exactly this ingredient.

Raahat contains no NSAIDs, no diclofenac, nothing that affects the heart or kidneys. If you are on prescription medication for either condition, check with your doctor before using any new topical product.

Yes. Raahat is safe for daily, long-term use.

Diclofenac's risks increase the longer you use it. Many chronic pain patients unknowingly accumulate heart, kidney and GI risk over months of regular use.

Raahat's ingredients do not carry this risk. Wintergreen, ginger, menthol and eucalyptus do not damage the stomach, do not affect kidneys and do not increase cardiovascular risk over time. Safe to use as part of a daily routine.

Menthol — within seconds. Cooling sensation is immediate.

Wintergreen — full effect in 5–10 minutes.

Ginger and eucalyptus — deeper anti-inflammatory relief builds over 15–20 minutes.

Most people feel meaningful relief within 10–15 minutes. Relief lasts 2–4 hours depending on severity. Reapply as needed — no daily limit that creates a safety concern. Warm cloth over the area after applying extends both absorption and duration.

Raahat is for age 12 and above.

Wintergreen and eucalyptus are too strong for young children. Menthol can cause breathing difficulty in children under 6 if applied near the face or chest. Do not use on children under 12.

For ages 12 and above — sports injuries, growing pains, post-activity muscle soreness — Raahat is appropriate. Keep away from the face.

Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. No refrigeration needed. Keep away from heat — wintergreen and menthol degrade faster in warm conditions.

Use within 12 months of opening.
