I can’t get enough of these patches! I first bought them for my daughter’s ankle after she sprained it in soccer. The difference in healing time was insane! Then we started using them for any and all pain, swelling, and bruising. I found they helped some persistent knee injuries of my own, one of my teens had very inflamed cystic acne and saw major reduced redness and swelling, and of course, more sprained ankles (this time pickleball!). I tell everyone about them and now have several friends and family members who keep these on hand for healing sports injuries. One sister suffered from debilitating plantar fasciitis, and successfully hiked the entire Havasu Trail because of these patches. Another is en route now to Italy for a 2 week backpacking trip, and is making space in her pack for a full package because she feels she can’t live without them! Seriously, they are the best thing out there. I’m so grateful to have stumbled onto them last year.
Thank you for your amazing review. We are thrilled that ActivMend worked so well for you! However, per FDA requirements, we need to be very clear: ActivMend is not intended or formulated for cystic acne. We appreciate you sharing your experience and are glad you had a positive result!
Not exactly sure how this thing works but it's like magic!
So far so good, we’ve been using it for four days. This was our first sprained ankle, so I’m not sure how long it would’ve taken to heal without it, but with tryouts only a week and a half away we didn’t want to risk taking any longer than it has to.
My daughter sprained her ankle weds and she is doing so much better 6 days later. Her PT was impressed and I am hopeful she will be well enough for her dance nationals this Sunday after using it.
Thank you for sharing your results, Stephanie! You might not realize it, but you’re also saving your daughter from long-term issues down the road. By focusing on actually healing the injury instead of just masking it with painkillers and dancing through the pain, you’re drastically reducing her risk of long-term tendon degradation. You're setting her up for a much healthier future! Cheers to you!
My daughter had a bad sprain from lacrosse. 5 days with the patch redused the swelling and helped with the bruising.
Great product to assist injury healing
I have a grade 3 ankle sprain and an avulsion fracture of my inner ankle. I am 9 days out from the day I did it and my swelling is drastically gone, along with the pain. I am shocked how well these work. I am able to walk with no pain and do single leg calf raises with no pain! I am so thankful I got these. I can’t believe my ankle was diagnosed as a grade 3, because I am literally walking around today with no pain and very minimal swelling. Make these a part of your recovery! I was skeptical at first, because my ankle was so bad on Day 1, but they work and have improved, and expedited my healing process. You will not be sorry! They truly work.
I know the instruction do not say this is appropriate for facial use but I had a facial procedure done know to cause a lot of bruising. I usually have bruising for 2 weeks. I used Activmend on my cheeks for the 24 hours after and now on day 3 after the procedure my bruises are already green- not the dark purple that I would expect to lag on for weeks. This is an amazing product I wish that it came in a face mask shape. I will keep this on hand for my face, as well as for my kid's sports injuries.
I was skeptical but after my daughter suffered a moderate ankle sprain with all star games coming up, I ordered the 3 kit bundle and saw immediate results. Her ankle swelling and bruising was reduced. We are looking forward to see how this works in the next two weeks.
ActivMend – Speed Up Recovery from Ankle Sprains, Joint Sprains, and Muscle Pulls
My daughter had a grade 2 sprain about a year ago, we used ActivMend, and it reduced the swelling within 24-48 hours, dramatically! She rolled her ankle again recently, we had ActivMend on hand, and again, reduced the swelling on a grade 2 sprain within 24 hours. She is 1 week out and can run and walk with no pain or swelling. Allowing her to rehab and get back on the soccer field next weekend. So thankful for ActivMend and how well it works!
D1 college Acro and Tumbling, ruptured me ATFL and high grade tear of my CFL that I just had reconstructed. I wish I found these sooner!
Gymnast daughter rolled ankle, then a week later rolled again, resulting in severe swelling and bruising. Activmend arrived 2 days later, applied as per instructions for 5 days along with usual RICE protocol. 10 days after second sprain she was back doing gymnastics. It really does help reduce swelling and bruising quicker than usual, definitely recommend.
ActivMend has helped significantly with the reduction of swelling after a pretty bad grade 2 ankle sprain. So much so, that after testing it, I've ordered more to help ease and speed the healing journey.
My daughter had a severe ankle sprain. She used ActovMend and the patches reduced her swelling and bruising significantly.
Works amazing... My girl is in 6th grade and that recovery was amazing with activMend. Thank you so much..
I was skeptical that these patches would do anything to my pain. I tried them twice and I was shocked to realize they make a world of difference. I put them at night before going to sleep and I woke up feeling like I did not have any injury! The difference was like night and day. Now, I am hooked and addicted. I decided to enroll in the subscription, so, I always have patches available when I need them. I dance 4-5 times per week, so, I always have some sort of pain everywhere. ActivMend has been a lifesavior! I use them for my lower back, my upper back, my sciatica, my knees, you name it. I even gave a couple of my patches to my dance teachers, and they worked for her! So, do not hesitate to try these. They’re absolutely amazing!
Helped my ankle right away!
Amazing product and it worked to get my daughter’s ankle feeling pain free so she can dance.
Helped me quicker
Great product! We keep in the gym bag now
Daughter plays college basketball. Turned her ankle on during a Monday game and was able to be back in action that following Friday night. Helped with swelling and provided pain relief. Highly recommended product!
This stuff really works! We were so surprised at how fast recovery was for our athlete!
My 14yo daughter had an ankle injury and these patches helped her so much it's almost unbelievable. On thing we wish was we took before and after photos! She is post injury now and getting back on the field.
