Sharp, Burning, or Tingling Pain? Discover a Better Way to Ease Nerve Pain
That electric shock down your leg. The pins and needles that won’t quit. The burning sensation that makes you want to jump out of your skin.
If you’re dealing with nerve pain, you know it’s unlike any other discomfort. It doesn’t play by the same rules as a sore muscle or stiff joint. It’s unpredictable, intense, and often leaves you searching for answers that traditional pain relief just can’t provide.
Here’s what most people don’t realize about nerve pain: it’s your body’s electrical system sending mixed signals. And when those signals get scrambled, finding relief requires alternative approaches that challenge your nervous system’s existing neural pathways. approach.
Let’s explore what’s really happening when your nerves are in distress, and discover why thousands are turning to a gentle, drug-free alternative that works with your body’s natural healing processes.
Understanding Nerve Pain: When Your Body’s Wiring Goes Haywire
Think of your nervous system as your body’s electrical grid – an intricate network carrying messages between your brain and every part of your body. When this system functions properly, you barely notice it. But when something goes wrong, the results can be both startling and exhausting.
What Makes Nerve Pain Different
Unlike muscle aches or joint stiffness, nerve pain has its own vocabulary:
Sharp, shooting sensations that feel like lightning bolts
Burning pain that seems to come from nowhere
Tingling or “pins and needles” that won’t subside
Numbness mixed with hypersensitivity
Electric shock-like jolts that catch you off guard
These aren’t just different words for the same sensation – they’re your nerves telling you something specific is happening beneath the surface.¹
Why Traditional Pain Relief Falls Short
Here’s the frustrating truth many people discover: what works for other types of pain often doesn’t work for nerve pain.
That’s because nerve pain isn’t caused by inflammation in muscles or joints. It’s caused by damaged, compressed, or irritated nerve fibers that are sending faulty signals to your brain.²
Common nerve pain triggers include:
Compressed nerves (like in carpal tunnel or sciatica)
Diabetic nerve damage
Post-surgical nerve sensitivity
Repetitive strain injuries
Age-related nerve changes
When you understand that nerve pain operates on a different system entirely, it becomes clear why it requires a different approach.
Real Stories: When Traditional Methods Fall Short
Take Patti S., a 61-year-old who was skeptical of pain patches after being “disappointed by some of the most expensive ones on the market.” She was dealing with severe sciatica discomfort from a hip issue.
“Literally after 5 minutes of wearing two patches around my hip joint, the discomfort went from an 8 to a 2. As I went through the day, I forgot about my hip entirely.”
Or consider Teresa N., who has been dealing with shoulder arthritis and bursitis:
“The patches are a life saver for me! They help so much. My orthopedic surgeon said surgery would not help because of the arthritis... Finally something that helps!”
What’s particularly telling about nerve pain is how it affects daily life. As one customer, Bea G., shared about her keloid scarring:
“The nerve endings in this scarring become unbearable... Then I tried Ollos. Basically bringing a calmness to the painful screaming nerves... It was amazing how quick it started calming the pain and my mind.”
The Problem with Conventional Approaches
Most conventional treatments for nerve pain fall into a few predictable categories, each with their own limitations:
The Numbing Route
Topical anesthetics like lidocaine essentially tell your nerves to “stop talking” temporarily.³ While this can provide short-term relief, it’s like putting tape over your car’s check engine light – the underlying issue remains.
The Medication Maze
Prescription nerve pain medications often come with a laundry list of side effects: drowsiness, dizziness, weight gain, and cognitive fog. Many people find themselves trading one problem for several others.⁴
As Hermine W. noted in her review: “They really help with neuropathies” – referring to how our patches provided relief without the typical medication side effects.
The Masking Game
Traditional pain patches use synthetic counter-irritants to create competing sensations. They’re essentially trying to distract your brain from the nerve signals – but your nerves are still sending those problematic messages.
A Different Path: How Infrared Therapy Supports Nerve Health
What if, instead of masking nerve pain or forcing it into submission, we could support your body’s natural ability to heal and restore proper nerve function?
That’s where far infrared therapy offers something truly different.
Working With Your Body’s Healing Wisdom
Far infrared therapy doesn’t just target symptoms – it addresses one of the root factors that can contribute to nerve discomfort: poor circulation.
Here’s what happens when you apply our clinically-tested infrared technology: blood flow increases in treated areas, while blood oxygen content improves.⁵ This enhanced circulation means:
More oxygen reaches stressed nerve tissues
Nutrients are delivered more efficiently to support nerve health
Waste products that can irritate nerves are cleared away more effectively
Your body’s natural healing processes get the support they need
The Gentle Heat That Penetrates Deep
Unlike traditional heating methods that only warm the surface, far infrared waves penetrate 4-6 centimeters into tissue, reaching the deeper layers where nerve pathways run.⁶
This deep, gentle warming can help:
Relax tense muscles that may be compressing nerves
Improve flexibility in tissues surrounding nerve pathways
Support your body’s natural anti-inflammatory responses
Promote overall tissue health
As Lori K. experienced with her radiating nerve pain: “Really helps with my low back and radiating nerve pain so I can continue to care for my grandchildren. Love the combination of infrared and herbal. Also very gentle on sensitive skin.”
Real Stories: Finding Relief Without Side Effects
“I was skeptical at first – I’d tried everything for my sciatica. But after using Ollos patches consistently, the shooting pain down my leg has become manageable. What I love most is that I can use them anywhere, anytime, without worrying about side effects.” – Sarah, 42
But it’s not just individual testimonials. One customer shared: “The Ollos Patch helped reduce my pain and numbness in my leg. I really appreciate this orange patch.” – Shu Hui K.
Another customer dealing with nerve pain after surgeries noted: “Stays put and helps with my nerve and muscle pain after two total knee replacements.” – Pamela R.
What Makes This Different
People dealing with nerve pain often tell us the same thing: they’re tired of treatments that come with trade-offs. They want relief without drowsiness, without masking the problem, and without wondering what long-term effects they might be creating.
Our approach combines patented bioceramic technology⁷ with carefully selected essential oils like peppermint and lavender, creating a drug-free solution that:
Works for hours without reapplication
Can be used safely alongside other treatments
Provides relief without systemic side effects
Supports your body’s natural healing processes
As one customer put it: “Finally pain free... bringing a calmness to the painful screaming nerves on the tough keloid scar... After trying three patches at different times on my stomach I automatically ordered more!” – Bea G.
The Science Behind Nerve Pain Relief
Understanding how infrared therapy can help with nerve pain requires looking at what nerves need to function properly.
Circulation: Your Nerve’s Lifeline
Healthy nerves require consistent blood flow to deliver oxygen and nutrients while removing metabolic waste. When circulation is compromised – whether from inflammation, compression, or other factors – nerve function suffers.⁸
Temperature and Healing
The gentle temperature increase that our patches create isn’t just about comfort – it represents improved tissue metabolism and enhanced healing conditions in the treated area.⁵
This optimal warming environment can help:
Reduce muscle tension that compresses nerves
Improve tissue flexibility around nerve pathways
Support cellular repair processes
Enhance your body’s natural pain-relieving mechanisms
A Natural Approach That Fits Your Life
One of the biggest challenges with nerve pain is its unpredictability. You never know when that shooting pain will strike or when the tingling will become unbearable.
Portable Relief That Works With You
Unlike traditional infrared devices that require plugs, cords, or batteries, our patches work anywhere, anytime. They’re activated by your natural body heat and provide consistent therapy for up to 6 hours.
As Margaret U. discovered: “I use the patches for knee pain and they work extremely well... Typically I can use them up to 3 days if they stay in good shape.”
This means you can:
Apply relief before nerve pain intensifies
Maintain consistent therapy throughout your day
Use them discreetly at work, during travel, or while sleeping
Address pain at its source, not just mask symptoms
Supporting Long-Term Nerve Health
While immediate relief matters, supporting your nerves’ long-term health is equally important. Consistent use of infrared therapy may help:
Improve circulation to nerve-rich areas over time
Support your body’s natural healing processes
Reduce the frequency and intensity of nerve pain episodes
Maintain better overall nerve function
As one long-term customer shared: “I’m continuing to purchase these patches as they are helpful with my pain. I like that they are drug free and no side effects.” – Andria L.
Getting Started: A Gentle Introduction to Nerve Pain Relief
If you’re tired of the medication merry-go-round and ready to try something that works with your body instead of against it, here’s how to begin:
Start Small, Think Consistent
Begin with one patch on your most problematic area. Many people notice improvement within the first few uses, but nerve healing takes time. Consistency matters more than intensity.
As one customer noted: “Works within minutes of applying them. So glad I found these” – Sammie G.
Track Your Progress
Keep notes about:
When you use the patches
What activities feel easier
How your sleep quality changes
Any reduction in the frequency of sharp episodes
Combine With Nerve-Friendly Habits
While infrared therapy provides targeted support, combining it with nerve-healthy practices can enhance your results:
Gentle movement and stretching
Stress management techniques
Adequate hydration
Quality sleep
