At first, the girls on my self-defence course looked at me strangely when I took out my Good Old German PferdeMedicSalbe to use after my shower: “Pferdesalbe? That’s the kind of thing my granny uses...”. They didn’t realise how effective and distinctive the sport balm is. No matter how tiring the workout has been, I feel completely refreshed after using the balm and I also have the feeling my muscles recover more quickly. And I am obviously on to something as, meanwhile, I see the unmistakeable Good Old German PferdeSalbe Sport in a lot of sports bags in the changing rooms.

I used to smile when the older people travelling with me would complain about their aching knees when we returned to the mountain lodges in the evenings. But now I understand those complaints first hand. But I would never want to give up my climbing and mountain bike trips because there is nowhere else that I can switch off land unwind like I do on these excursions. And, of course, it keeps me fit. Luckily, I can always fit a tube of PferdeMedicSalbe into the smallest of my rucksacks, so even on trips lasting several days I can keep up with all the youngsters - without being a source of amusement for them!

A few years ago, after experiencing an upheaval in my private life, I took up jogging. It wasn't long until I had a real taste for it - if I'm honest, mainly because of the other people at the running group. At the start, when I was new to this sport and suffered from aching muscles, Good Old German Warming Cream was an essential item for me. Running is now an established part of my day-to-day life and I would never want to be without it or my new circle of running friends. Meanwhile I am even running a few half-marathons, always with Good Old German Warming Cream on hand when I need it.

I am a passionate skier. Ever since I was young, I have enthusiastically dedicated myself to this hobby. On the long descents I enjoy taking in the nature around me as well as the exhilaration of skiing itself. Now that I am getting older I notice the physical exertion rather more than I used to, so that’s why I always have my PferdeMedicSalbe within easy reach. It quickly relieves smaller sprains and helps if my knees or back feel a little sore. I use it straight after the descent for regeneration. This means I can also enjoy the après-ski and, the next day, I feel good that I am fit again and ready to get back on the piste.

We have a large garden and it doesn’t get any easier to look after it at our age, despite having meanwhile designed it to be lower maintenance. For many years Good Old German Pferdesalbe Gold has helped us if we’ve ever overdone it slightly with the work outside and have aching joints. We simply love our garden but it needs regular care and attention in order to keep it looking good. We’ve now tried PferdeMedicSalbe and it means we can potter around outside for as long as we want without hesitation. PferdeMedicSalbe is a wonderful enhancement of the old, reliable Pferdesalbe. The effect, the new name and the slogan say it all: “the unmistakeable”, and this means there’s no chance of us picking up the wrong product by mistake. At last the right balm is always available from the pharmacy!

I spend many hours each day at a computer for my work and, my neck in particular, very quickly started to make me resent this. Then I discovered Good Old German Vital Gel, and now I can’t imagine life without this product. I apply it to my neck and shoulders every day, which is really easy to do thanks to the integrated massage brush. Plus it keeps my hands clean. It also means I can easily use it throughout the day without interrupting my work to wash my hands - which is especially practical as I’ve always got so much work to do. My tensions have been completely eased and I am free from discomfort throughout the day - it’s such a relief. I warmly recommend it to everyone!
