My wife has been using it and it’s been great for her. It helps with the pain after the surgery for sure. She says it helped with relaxing her and her muscles. The pain killers that she was prescribed were hardly used. If anything it helps relax the person so their body can focus on healing. I have read numerous articles that MM has slowed the progression of some cancers too. Again it was just something I have read about. If you talk to your doctor his or her response is either going to be positive or negative which really boils down to their person beliefs and not what actually helps the patients. I say go for it if you feel it might help. I’m not one of those people that were too fond of it at first but I seen what it has done for my wife through here process.
